This tour offers you a special view of Madrid, onboard the this double-decker tour bus that takes you on a
scheduled panoramic tour of Madrid on two possible routes.
This is a great way to see the city's fantastic monuments and sights, allowing you to get a good overall view of Madrid, with the flexibility to hop-off the bus to
further explore any attractions you particularly like. And then you can hop-on again to continue your tour as the next bus comes round!
You can hop on and off the bus as many times as you like on either of the routes,
or even start one route, and join another at one of the interconnecting
stops. The routes are;
Modern Madrid and Historic Madrid (see below).
The top deck
of the bus is open, allowing you to enjoy marvellous views of Madrid's main
monuments and sights. Once on the bus, you are given headphones that allow you to listen to the ongoing commentary which supplies tourist information about the sights
in 8 languages. The buses are equipped with a low floor for handicapped access, and have a special ramp for those with reduced mobility.
All passengers are given a map of Madrid, showing the city's main attractions and the different tourist routes
and also discount vouchers for visiting museums, monuments, attractions and
restaurants.
The average
journey time is 75 minutes if you take the complete route (tickets are valid
for any route) and the bus operates every day throughout the year, except for 1st January and
18 September.
Operating hours are from 09.30am to midnight in summer, 10am to 7pm in
winter and 10am to 9pm in Spring and Autumn. Buses will pass by any stop
every 10 to 25 minutes.
This really is an
excellent option to get to know Madrid's sights and monuments in a short
period of time. You can then hop-off the bus and explore anything that takes
your interest in a more leisurely fashion.
