Panoramic double-decker bus tour around Madrid with audioguide

4.3/5
111 reviews

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.

    Es gibt kein Hop on Hop off, nur eine Rundfahrt, das ist nicht dasselbe - und nur 1 Einstieg beim Prado, sodass sich dort alles zusammenschob mit Anstehen. Ich würde es nicht empfehlen, da kann man besser mit den öffentlichen Bussen fahren, z.B. Linie 001 vom Prado bis über den Plaza Espana zum Nulltarif und da kann man Ein- und Aussteigen, wo man will !!!!!!!!!! Keine Information, nur Werbung an den normalen Busstationen, wo die Busse der Citytour immer durchfuhren - sehr ärgerlich

    Belle promenade, dommage que le hop on hop off ne soit pas proposé. Réservé sur internet. Le point de rendez vous indiqué sur la confirmation était complètement erroné.

    Brilliant service and it's great that there are 2 route options. My only criticism is that it's not always indicated that City Tours stop at a particular place eg outide Hotel Riu Plaza Hotel. Once we had the map it was fine. Apart from that an excellent service.
