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.
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.
Tour Reviews
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.
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 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.
A must. If youre in Madrid, visiting Segovia and Ávila is definitely worth it. They are a World Heritage Site after all. Highly recommended.
Spectacular. These two beautiful medieval cities were definitely worth knowing. My partner and I loved it. The guide was very friendly.
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.
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.
Good tour. We’re an older couple and although we knew that some streets were very steep we had no problems touring the city and enjoying Toledo’s history and monuments.
Excellent. Congratulations on the organization, our evening experience in Toledo was perfect.
Worth it. This city is pure history. The most interesting sites were the cathedral and the synagogue.
Better than expected. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit and the city tour. We loved the Alcazar and the Cathedral.
100% recommendable. The tour was impressive and the guide’s information was very thorough. Strolling through the city was strolling through Spain’s history.
We got to know some lovely places in a short amount of time. It was as if you were in the medieval era at all times
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.
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.
I had the same guide here in Toledo as in Avila and Segovia. I’m quite pleased because he’s a very professional guide and friendly with the tourists.
Good visit. The tour was very good but I think we could’ve used the time we spent in the damascening workshop to go into the cathedral.
Great tour. It gives you enough time to visit both cities’ landmarks in a single day and the guide’s information was great.
We loved it. Being able to visit both cities in a single day was amazing.
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.
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.
2 stunning cities. We always wanted to see Toledo and Segovia but by visiting them with an expert guide we got to admire every place we went to.
Recommendable. Either of these two cities is worth the time, even by themselves, but getting to see both in a single day was a luxury.
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.
Spectacular. The tour has lots of attractions such as the walls, cathedrals or the Salamanca Main Plaza, which are all worth seeing.
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.
An essential visit in Spain. If you go to Madrid I think this is a must due to the tour’s historical and cultural value. Also, value for money is very good
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.
Awesome. Seeing these two works of art in a single morning is definitely worth it.
Mandatory tour. An essential visit to two of the most historical and beautiful monuments in the history of Spain.
The guide and Julia Travel are excellent at their jobs. Many thanks
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
The history, the architecture, and the amazing views—this tour had it all!
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
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.”
