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.

Two cities full of history and art. Between both of them there are at least 4 monuments you need to see in Spain, and many others which arent as popular, but are very interesting.

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…

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.

Could be improved. The route is beautiful, but the explanations of the historical background of the points we visited couldve been better.

Jay E.
November 2025

I’d recommend this tour. We had enough time to see the city highlights and walk around the old town streets. Be careful if you have mobility problems because a person who did the tour with us had a bad time.

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 charming city. Thanks to the guide we were able to discover Toledo as it was when it was the capital of the kingdom in the 16th century. Fantastic.

Dianne H.

A great way to see Toledo. The bus is comfortable, the tour around the city is very complete and the guide’s information was very interesting.

Lorraine B.
November 2025

Very complete. Except for the inside of the cathedral, I think we saw the other city highlights and were able to value these place’s history and art…

Freya S.
November 2025

A very fast pace on the part of the guide, who was young. There were older people in the group and there were many ascents in the city that they needed to take at their own pace, and so they ended up missing part of the guide’s explanations. A shame on that part.

Our guide was great and Toledo is a true gem of a city. Next time we’ll stay there during our holiday.

The best thing was the shop at the end of the tour. The guide was quite friendly and pleasant.

This was my second visit and this time I brought my mother. Toledo is a gorgeous city in every way and I love it because you can walk easily through its streets.

Dana M.
November 2025

Good but incomplete. The city tour was good but once we were there we didn’t get to visit the inside of the Cathedral and the Alcazar

Danny W.
November 2025

Awesome. Visiting both cities in a single day was wonderful and the guide was great.

Gina W.
November 2025

It was worth it. Visiting both cities with an official guide was very comfortable, and he instructed us on the history of these two beautiful cities throughout the entire tour.

Debbie E.
November 2025

Excellent. The best way to see Segovia and Toledo in a single day with a terrific guide.

Roger C.
November 2025

Highly recommended. It gave us time to see almost everything that Segovia and Toledo have to offer, and the guide gave us very complete information.

Julie H.
November 2025

Great tour. It gives you enough time to visit both cities’ landmarks in a single day and the guide’s information was great.

Jane A.
November 2025

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

Emilie H.
November 2025

Worth it. We loved being able to visit the most interesting places of Salamanca and Avila in a single day departing from Madrid. Estefania, the guide, was very attentive and gave us very good explanations of the places we visited.

Julie C.

Fantastic tour. It gave us enough time to see both cities which are so full of history and art.

Joyce S.
November 2025

Incredible places. We saw many historical places that we were able to appreciate even more due to the guide’s explanations. The tour was long but felt short because of everything we saw.

Agnes A.

Good value for money. Getting to see these two human heritage cities with a guide explaining everything we were seeing was almost cheaper than doing the route by ourselves.

Becky T.
November 2025

Recommended. We liked this tour a lot, as well as seeing these two pieces of Spain’s history.

Robert S.
November 2025

A very thorough guide with all kinds of information about the Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen, although perhaps more time should have been dedicated to the trip.

Martin P.
November 2025

Awesome. A historical excursion through two of Spain’s most important monuments, true architectural jewels.

Kelly R.
October 2025

The best way to visit these two monuments. We travelled comfortably from Madrid and the guide explained the peculiarities of these two wonders in detail and with interesting facts, so we could appreciate them even more.

Alexandra W.
October 2025

The tour in general is wonderful but I was not happy to have to wait all the time for the explanations to be translated into one or two or more languages.

Nicole P.

The history, the architecture, and the amazing views—this tour had it all!

Amanda B.

We learned so much about Toledo’s history. It was a great mix of guided tours and free time to wander.

Sophie L.

The excursion was nice, but the tapas were disappointing. I expected something more authentic and tasty

Justin D

From the Alcázar to the Jewish Quarter, everything was amazing! Our guide was super knowledgeable and friendly.

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