Group or Private Early Entry Royal Palace Tour with Optional City Stroll & Tapas

Due to Covid19, until the end of 2020, this tour will be amended to ensure your safety:
- The city stroll portion of this tour will be amended to ensure your safety & the panoramic view from the rooftop terrace will not be included.
- Group size has been reduced.

Enjoy early entrance to the Royal Palace, exploring Madrid’s answer to Versailles a full hour before the general entrance crowds.

If you choose the option to extend your tour, you’ll then take a city stroll through two historic neighborhoods, stopping at landmark attractions like the Plaza Mayor and learning about the long history of the city, from its roots as an Islamic outpost to its heyday as the heart of a world-conquering empire. A highlight is the visit to one of Madrid’s oldest markets to taste wine, cheese, and iberian ham before ending the day atop one of the city’s best and most exclusive panoramic viewpoints.
