Highlights
  • Plaza Mayor - This stop is made in the Plaza del Comercio, where three squares converge; Plaza Mayor, Plaza de Santa Cruz and the Plaza del Comercio itself where the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is located, the former prison of the aristocracy. There our guide will tell us the history of La Plaza Mayor and how from being a suburb of Madrid it becomes the main square of the capital.
  • Plaza de Ramales - In the Plaza de Ramales there was the church of San Jua, belonging to the order of Santiago. This was demolished to convert the space into a plaza by Jose Bonaparte, among the rubble it is thought that the remains of Velazquez are found.
  • Mirador de la Cornisa del Palacio Real - We will walk along a narrow street to discover a viewpoint that will amaze us with its views, a space from where we can observe from a special point the entire historical-artistic complex that represents the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral. Awesome.
  • Catedral de Sta Maria la Real de la Almudena - At the viewpoint we will have the privilege of observing this building that is linked to the Royal Palace through the Plaza de la Armería, which serves for the representation of different official acts and events. This cathedral, which took 110 years to build, is oriented from North to South instead of East to West like most Christian temples. We will tell you their secrets
  • Plaza de la Villa - Splendid square that houses the true flavor of the Madrid of the Austrian monarchy. In it we find buildings such as the Torre de los Lujanes or the Casa de Cisneros. The old Madrid City Hall was located in this square, now in the Cibeles Palace.
  • Puerta del Sol - On our way back we will border La Puerta del Sol, the center of Madrid and Spain. This square is located the Post Office Building, where the tower with the clock is located that every year offers us the chimes of New Year’s Eve.

A MUST do in Madrid!!! - Ronan you were a fantastic tour guide! We are so thankful for your guidance on our Segway tour today. You were a perfect match for our family and made us feel confident and at ease with the technical parts of managing a Segway. We felt like pros in no time! This tour was the perfect way to get our bearings and learn more about Madrid. You had so much knowledge of the city and helped us feel welcome and oriented in his amazing city! You even customized our trip to highlight what you learned about each member of our family (pointed out trees for our forestry major, detailed Spanish history for our Spanish major!) Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with our family! Best wishes to you! Thank you also for the family pictures you took of us. Lucky lucky us! And the pictures are fantastic! We will treasure them as we will the memory of this GREAT experience in Madrid! *pro tip: the meeting place is AT the Segway store. I was imagining it being in one of the city plazas so I was a bit thrown off trying to find the store front. *schedule this excursion for your first full day.

A fun way to see Madrid - Never operated a Segway but learned in about ten minutes (I'm 57). Was easy to operate and loads of fun to drive. It was a tossup which I enjoyed more, seeing Madrid for the first time or riding the Segway. Our tour guy was very knowledgeable of the historic sites we explored and made the adventure exciting. I would encourage anyone wanting to explore Madrid in an invigorating way to try this tour out.

Perfect familiarisation tour - This is, in my opinion, the best way to familiarise yourself with the wonderful city of Madrid. Four of us booked, and of course these tours are exclusive, so it was just the four of us on the tour. Our guide, Ronan, was genial, knowledgeable, helpful and fun. We did the two hour tour encompassing Retiro Park and the main squares of the city, highly recommended. The Segways are safe and easy to control, a short familiarisation at the start being all that is required. By the end we were able to select where in the city we wanted to concentrate our time, with the additional factor that the restaurant recommended by Ronan, Vinitus, was perfect. I even got to use tortuga, previously unused from my Spanish lessons, not once but twice! Brilliant fun.
