All the Madrid city tours listed below are private tours with the services of an English speaking chauffeur and official tour guide.

Time permitting you might also consider one of the Private Madrid Excursions to Toledo, El Escorial, Segovia and beyond.

Once you're in Madrid there is so much to see and do.  You'll want to visit the main sights of the city including the Royal Palace and some of the main galleries.

The Prado will come first on the priority list of things to do in Madrid but don't forget to visit the Reina Sofia where Picasso's 'Guernica' resides.

In the evening a flamenco show is a popular choice for visitors and there is a good range of performances available ranging from large scale spectaculars for tourist groups to smaller shows in more intimate surroundings.  A visit to a bullfight is another possibility.

More economical than the private tour is to reserve one of several scheduled Coach Tours of Madrid. These city tours are operated by Pullmantur, one of Spain's largest travel agencies.
