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.

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.

I went by myself, and it wouldnt have been the same if I hadnt gone on a tour. The guide gave us tons of information on the history of Avila and Segovia, the latter was my favorite.

Johnny S.
November 2025

You walk a lot so its best to wear comfortable shoes. Segovia is beautiful, and you get some time to eat while seeing the aqueduct. I highly recommend it.

William D.
November 2025

We really liked it. The guide was amazing, we had a great day visiting Avila and Segovia.

Marsha H.
November 2025

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.

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.

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.

Anette W.
November 2025

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

Darrell L.
October 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

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.

November 2025

The weather wasn’t on our side but it was honestly worth it to go on this tour. The souvenir shop that they took us to was a little expensive.

Brandon P.
November 2025

Incredible. Walking through the streets of Toledo is to go back to the sixteenth century, where we saw how Jews, Muslims and Christians lived together in harmony.

Rachel V.
November 2025

Very complete. We saw the most important places of the city, and visited sites that were full of history and art accompanied by a guide who made us appreciate, understand and admire all the sites we visited.

Marianne P.
November 2025

We loved it. I think that if you travel to Madrid you need to see Toledo, and if you have a bit of time as we did, with a tour like this, as you can see the highlights in a single morning, comfortably, and with a guide explaining everything.

Joan W.
November 2025

Amazing. I went with my husband and my older daughters and we enjoyed every moment of the tour and of all the monuments and places of interest.

James K.
November 2025

Very good tour. The organization, the tour and the guide were very good which allowed us to visit and admire two amazing cities.

Samuel C.
November 2025

Highly recommend. It gave us enough time to visit Toledo and Segovia’s main attractions. Good guide.

Steve S.
November 2025

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

Debra C.
November 2025

Not recommended if you can’t walk much. You have a to walk a lot, and Toledo has very steep slopes, which made the tour very difficult for my husband and me.

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.

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.

Ben W.
October 2025

Great. Good organization and several places to visit in a single day.

Alfred H.
October 2025

Magnificent. We visited the most emblematic places of each of the two cities and the guide knew how to give us detailed information of every point we visited.

Lucille W.
September 2025

An incredible day. If you’re in Madrid this tour is almost mandatory to get to see these two monumental cities and spend a great day visiting both.

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.

Tommy L.
November 2025

Good tour and regular guide. Although the visits to El Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen by themselves were worth it on their own, the guide could’ve provided more information.

Owen B.
November 2025

It’s amazing. The cross of the Valley can be seen from far away and the Monastery is spectacular, where the Catholic royals are buried. A great trip, I recommend it 100%.

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.

Penny O.
October 2025

Mandatory tour. An essential visit to two of the most historical and beautiful monuments in the history of Spain.

Nicole P.
September 2005

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

Amanda B.
October 2004

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

Sophie L.
September 2004

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

Justin D
July 2004

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.”
