Your Madrid hotel
Free cancellation, 24h
Six hours and a car of your own through a capital that was planned by kings, and whose best parts are further apart than they look on a map.
The day
Madrid rewards a car more than people expect: the distances between the sights are real, and the summer heat is worse.
Start
Your hotel
Collected from the door at 07:00 or 13:00, whichever you booked.
+30m
Retiro and the Crystal Palace
The old royal gardens, with a glass pavilion built for an exhibition of plants from the Philippines and never taken down.
+1h 45m
The Prado quarter
The Paseo del Prado with its three great museums on one boulevard, plus the Neptune and Cibeles fountains that Madrid's football clubs celebrate at.
Museum entrance not included
+3h
Plaza Mayor and Habsburg Madrid
The arcaded square that was the city's stage for four hundred years, and the lanes around it where the old taverns still are.
+4h 15m
The Royal Palace and the Almudena
The largest functioning royal palace in Europe by floor area, with the cathedral facing it across the square. Both exteriors are the point; going inside is optional.
Palace entrance not included
+6h
Back where you want to be
Your hotel, Gran Via, or wherever you are eating.
