Tour description

The tour aims to be a tour of the most emblematic places in the history of Madrid. The route will begin in the Plaza de Isabel II, where the Opera Palace is located. Next, we will change to the neighboring Plaza de la Encarnación, with the monastery of the same name. From here, we will pass to the Plaza de Oriente, which houses the Royal Palace and magnificent gardens. Next to the Palace, we will find the Almudena Cathedral, and, next to it, the Viaduct. From here, going up the main street, we will pass through the Plaza de la Villa and arrive at the Plaza Mayor, perhaps the most emblematic scene of capital. Going down Postas street, we will reach Puerta del Sol, and from here we will go to the Plaza de Santa Ana, entrance of the famous Barrio de las Letras. From here, we will end at the Plaza de las Cortes and the fountain of Neptune. We will continue then to the Cibeles fountain, and, going up Alcalá street, we will arrive at Gran Vía, which will cross until we reach the Plaza de España, where the tour will end. During the whole journey, the necessary stops will be made to make the historical, political, social, cultural explanations ..., which will be spun with anecdotes and comments about the customs of the city. It will be done interactively, avoiding at all times that the activity is reduced to an academic presentation.
