(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Plaza de la Villa
A charming square in Madrid’s old town, Plaza de la Villa features medieval architecture and historic buildings. You’ll see the 15th-century Casa de Cisneros, the elegant Casa de la Villa (former town hall), and the Gothic Torre de los Lujanes. It's a quiet, atmospheric corner that transports you to Madrid’s civic past.
Plaza Mayor
This iconic rectangular plaza has been Madrid’s social heart since the 16th century. Surrounded by uniform red facades and arcades, it’s a hub for street performers, markets, and terraces. Spot the bronze statue of King Philip III and imagine coronations and bullfights that once enlivened the square's paved floor.
Plaza de Pontejos
A smaller, less crowded square just steps from Plaza Mayor, Plaza de Pontejos exudes a quaint charm. Unique pigeon wire domes top the central kiosk, and the terrace cafés offer a tranquil retreat. It’s an intimate pause between more bustling landmarks.
