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.

Worth it. Both cities architecture and history is amazing. The best thing was that we got to visit both in a single day.

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.

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.

Ralph M.

Great. The city is beautiful, worth the visit.

Darrell L.
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

Garry W.
November 2025

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.

Anette W.
November 2025

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

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.

Ted B.

Highly recommend. The tour is as good as the information that was given by the guide and the visits to the temples.

Daniel C.
November 2025

Good tour. It went by quickly as we saw all of the city highlights and got to walk around the old town. Personally, I liked the cathedral the most, as well as the panoramic view of the city and the Tagus river.

Harvey C.
November 2025

It was worth it. Getting to enjoy this city’s history and art was fantastic. The guide gave us very good explanations and the tour was great. What we liked most was the picture of the Greco and the cathedral.

The morning in Toledo and in the afternoon there’s time to get to know Madrid. Anyway, I had the feeling that I missed seeing some things in Toledo, so perhaps it would be better to have done a full day.

Roxanne C.

Impeccable. The tour was very well organized and we enjoyed seeing the city highlights. We were even able to purchase a sword to remember the visit.

Great tour. We loved seeing both cities, which are so full of monuments and history, all in a single day.

November 2025

Good tour. We were able to visit and see both cities’ main attractions in a single day. Good organization.

Michelle S.
November 2025

Pure history. We saw vestiges of Roman times in both cities, but what I liked the most was Avila’s wall and the entire old town of Salamanca.

Jane A.
November 2025

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

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.

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.

Bryan G.
November 2025

Better than I expected. I was impressed by both places, even though I wasn’t expecting much from the Valley of the Fallen, this was almost what impressed me the most.

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.

Chloe N.
October 2025

If you’re interested in the history of Spain, this is the trip for you. Also, the views and the monastery are one of a kind.

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