Once our driver has picked you up from the hotel, we will head towards the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial, the impressive work promoted by King Felipe II and designed by Juan de Herrera in the late sixteenth century. The visit to this impressive building, considered a World Heritage Site by Unesco, lasts a minimum of two hours.

   2 h

2. Once the visit to El Escorial is complete, we return to the capital and continue our tour trying the famous tapas, an ideal way to gather strength to continue the day. We take a break to eat something in one of the most classic places in the Spanish capital, one that is more than a century old. Madrid es una ciudad que cuenta con alguna de las pinacotecas más importantes del mundo, como el Museo del Prado, el Reina Sofía o el Thyssen-Bornemisza. Le invitamos a una breve visita a alguno de ellos para que puedan disfrutar de las obras maestras de pintores como Velazquez, El Greco, Goya, Dalí o Picasso. As a culmination to this day, we will know what is known as Madrid de los Austrias, the medieval heart of the capital and its subsequent expansion during the reigns of Carlos I and, especially, of Felipe II, the most important kings of the House of Austria. Our driver will take you through such emblematic areas as Calle Mayor, Puerta del Sol, Plaza de la Villa or Plaza Mayor before concluding the tour at your hotel.
