Excursions to monuments and cities near the capital of Spain

Signing up for day trips from Madrid through the suburbs of the Spanish capital is an excellent option for making the most of your holiday in the city. We offer you the possibility to go on our trips, which include guided tours to places near the capital, treasures like Toledo, Aranjuez, Avila, Segovia, El Escorial or the Valley of the Fallen. All of these destinations are quite interesting. Find out for yourself!

Get the prices of each one of these guided tours, which are always done in comfortable buses for short journeys on the road. We will clearly show you the schedule of each of our itineraries and of the places to which we’ll have to take the bus. From there, we will enjoy a day discovering the charms of Madrid’s suburbs, thanks to the presence of our guide, who will accompany you both at the destination of each trip and on the journey there.

Why should you embark on any of our trips to the outskirts of Madrid? It’s very simple: there’s much to see and our tours will definitely surprise you.

Tours from Madrid that families will enjoy

All of our trips from Madrid take place during one day. Throughout the day, sufficient time is available to tour places quite different from the capital, like Avila or Segovia. The first is famous for its long medieval walls and the Santa Teresa de Jesus. And the second is world-famous for its Roman aqueduct and the spectacular Alcazar.

Another interesting destination for a trip from Madrid is the city of Toledo. This city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it’s worth going on the peaceful guided tour that we offer you through its streets and to its monuments. It’s the best way to discover the City of Three Cultures.

The attractive places to see on a day trip from Madrid don’t stop there. It’s also possible to go to two quite distinct places that embody the far-off and more recent histories of Spain. Trips and guided tours to Monastery of San Lorenzo del Escorial and to the Valley of the Fallen are also available.

And equally interesting is to go on a trip to Aranjuez in order to see the palaces, museum and gardens in the beautiful Comunidad de Madrid, located very close to the capital and thus easy to go to on a day trip from Madrid.

That’s to say, we offer various destinations for these trips, which always include a guided tour to the most attractive and unforgettable places to see during your holiday in Madrid.

Quite comfortable bus, brilliant restaurant in Segovia and very beautiful places. The downside is that there’s very little time to stop and appreciate everything in detail, especially the aqueduct and the unvisited cathedral.

Avila and Segovia are to be visited time and time again. I will never tire of walking through their streets and I have already thought about returning with my parents through this company.

History and art. Between both cities, there are at least 4 essential monuments to see in Spain, as well as many other interesting but not so famous ones.

Charlotte G.

Spectacular places. The Alcázar, the Cathedral and the aqueduct of Segovia along with the walls of Avila are impressive, worth seeing if you’re in Madrid

I loved the tour with this agency. The guide was very well prepared but sometimes gave the same explanations in English and Spanish, which took some time.

Most of the group were older people and the tour was very fast-paced. Even so the cities are beautiful and my husband and I were amazed by the aqueduct.

Great visit. We had enough time to see the most emblematic monuments of both cities as well as many other places, like palaces, which arent as popular.

Denise W.
November 2025

The alcazar, the aqueduct, the walls and several other highlights… Visiting both cities in a single day is definitely worth it.

Well organized, it was on time, although it wouldve been nice to leave a little earlier and have a bit more free time to visit the towns on our own.

I highly recommend it. The guides information was amazing, and the tour around Avila and Segovia was gorgeous. We mostly visited the Avila walls and the Segovia aqueduct, but we also loved the cathedral and the Alcazar…

Very interesting. We were able to see the highlights and got an idea of how this three cultures city was like in the sixteenth century.

We were delighted. I went with my wife and we were both very satisfied with the tour.

Good tour and good organization. We were able to enjoy some of Toledo’s highlights, although we would’ve liked to visit the inside of the cathedral instead of going to the damascening store.

November 2025

It was worth it. We were satisfied both with the guide and the tour’s organization. For those who weren’t used to walking, the steep streets were a bit harsh, but that’s also part of Toledo’s charm

Art and history. I think that if you go to Madrid you have to visit Toledo, as it was the old Spanish capital and has a lot of very impressive places such as the cathedral, the alcazar and the Jewish quarter.

A must in Spain. The The panoramic view of the city is spectacular and the visits to the different temples and walking through its streets was incredible.

Joseph B.

We loved Salamanca. The Main Plaza, the university, the cathedral, the entire historical complex were all amazing. From Avila we really only got to see the wall.

Thelma L.
October 2025

The best of Salamanca and Avila. We were able to see the most interesting places of these two cities in this one-day tour: the wall, the cathedrals, the palaces and the impressive Salamanca Main Plaza, which I believe, along with Plaza de España in Seville, are the two most beautiful in Spain.

Jane A.

Completely recommended. I think we saw the highlights of both cities.

Darryl W.
November 2025

Incomplete. We would’ve liked to have some time to visit the library. In spite of that we liked the visit in general and visited many other interesting sites.

Toledo is an absolute gem! This tour covered all the highlights, and we even had time to relax and shop.”
