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.
December 2021

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.

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

Debora C.
November 2025

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.

Roy C.
November 2025

Good organization. We left Madrid on time. The guides explanations were good, very educational. I only wished wed had more time to visit Avila on our own.

Josep G.
November 2025

A pleasant tour. We saw Segovia and Ávilas highlights. Although I wouldnt recommend it for people who cant walk long distances or who have small children.

Craig S.

Fantastic. We really enjoyed both cities and all their monuments.

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.

Samy A.
November 2025

Perfect to get to see Toledo. The street tour and visiting the city highlights was very interesting and broad enough to get an idea of the city and how it was during the time of its maximum splendor in the sixteenth century.

Anette W.
November 2025

Better than expected. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit and the city tour. We loved the Alcazar and the Cathedral.

Karl T.
November 2025

Very complete. Starting with a panoramic view of the city form the viewpoint was great, to then visit the most emblematic places.

Eileen P.
November 2025

Good organization and beautiful tour. In a single afternoon we were able to see the city and it’s most emblematic places. The guide gave us precise information and facts to help us understand and appreciate how the old Spanish capital was in the fifteenth century.

Toledo is, in a word, majestic

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.

Doreen A.
November 2025

Great. We visited very interesting sites throughout the tour, and they told us a lot of trivia about them, which we wouldn’t have known if we’d gone on our own.

Kyle H.
November 2025

Toledo is spectacular. The guide, however, was in a hurry to get to each of the stops on time.

Nathan S.
November 2025

Half a day is honestly too little time to see Toledo, but we went to see the main sights in the city. The guide was very friendly.

Debbie E.
November 2025

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

Peggy W.
November 2025

Great tour. Definitely worth visiting both cities, it’s a shame that we couldn’t go into the cathedrals.

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.

Connie P.
November 2025

Worth it. History and art in two spectacular cities.

Willie D.
November 2025

Good for older people and bad for small children. The tour through Toledo’s streets is a bit difficult if you have babies. Otherwise, good tour.

Joseph B.
November 2025

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.

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.

Roy A.
November 2025

I loved it. I thought about visiting Salamanca and Avila on my own and over several days but with this tour I was able to enjoy both cities in a single day and value their highlights due to our guide, Estefani’s, indication.

Thomas G.
November 2025

Lovely tour. There were tons of very interesting places that were worth the visit, both in Salamanca and Avila: the walls, cathedrals, streets, nobility palaces, etc.

Julie C.
October 2025

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

Anna P.
November 2025

Good organization. We were able to value how spectacular these two wonders of Spain’s art and history are even more due to the guide’s explanations

Alexandra W.
November 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.

Imogen H.
November 2025

Small group and everything was well organized. Both the monastery and the Valley of the Fallen were fabulous thanks to the history behind them.

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.

Christopher H.
October 2025

Everything was well-organized, without delays and highlighting the Valley of the Fallen with its beautiful scenery and snowy mountains.

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.

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.”
