Visit the literature quarter and follow in the footsteps of poets and thinkers as you learn all about the Golden Age. Then let your guide take you further into the intimate La Latina area, where locals while away the days.

Explore areas like Chueca, Malasaña and Lavapiés with their modern and cosmopolitan atmospheres. Many charming establishments await your discovery.

See the sights such as the Puerta del Sol, the Royal Palace, Almudena Cathedral, Plaza Mayor and the historical buildings that imbue Madrid with a unique Habsburg flair.

Combine a walking tour with a view from a platform. Visit a museum (the Museo del Prado, Thyssen Bornemisza Museum, Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía) and stop in between for tapas at an authentic bar. The start time and tempo are up to you.
