What to expect

There’s nothing quite like that first glimpse of Madrid - the wide boulevards, grand buildings, and sunshine bouncing off centuries-old stone. With one easy ticket, you can sit back and soak up the city’s sights from the comfort of a panoramic sightseeing bus. Take in everything from historic landmarks to modern icons at a relaxing pace. It’s the perfect way to get your bearings in the Spanish capital and tick off the city’s must-sees.

There are two routes to choose from and your ticket allows you to ride them both. Route 1 (Blue) dives into Historic Madrid. You'll roll past grand royal palaces, elegant plazas, and leafy boulevards like the Paseo del Prado – packed with art, architecture, and stories from Madrid’s royal past. Expect wow-worthy views from the Royal Palace to the ancient Temple of Debod.

Route 2 (Green) takes you through Modern Madrid. Think bold buildings, buzzing shopping streets and the capital’s contemporary side. Spot the iconic Puerta de Alcalá, cruise past the futuristic KIO Towers, and get a glimpse of Real Madrid’s famous Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

Want to stretch your legs? There’s also a two hour walking tour included. It sets off daily at 11am from the city centre – just ask onboard for all the details.
