TOUR DESCRIPTION
Once an Arabian fortress, Madrid is now a thriving cultural center bursting with galleries, museums and plazas such as Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor. Other highlights to look forward to on your tour are the Bull Ring and Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, home of the famous Real Madrid football team.
On this tour you will discover Madrid as the multi-faceted city that it is, from its Arab origins to the court days during the reign of Phillip II and of Charles III, and finally to present day Madrid. It was during the reign of Charles III in the 18th Century when most artistic and cultural ideas were introduced enabling Madrid to become an important cultural and scientific center.

Drive past such well known avenues as those of Gran Via and Castellana; famous squares such as Plaza de Espana, de Oriente, Mayor, Puerta del Sol, Atocha, Neptuno, Cibeles, Puerta de Alcala, Colon and Plaza de Castilla; the historic quarters of Austrias, the Borbouns and Salamanca, the famous del Oeste, Casa de Campo and Retiro Parks; the commercial and financial areas, the University Campus, the Bull Ring and the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, home of the famous Real Madrid football team.

At Colon Square, the tour will stop, enabling you to stretch your legs or perhaps grab some refreshments at the famous Hard Rock Cafe.
