Day 1
Madrid - Welcome to Spain!
Welcome to Madrid, the bustling capital city of Spain. Upon arrival at the airport, a driver will greet you and provide a private transfer to your hotel. After checking into your hotel, you may begin to explore Madrid at your leisure. You might want to rest up first or just overcome jet-lag by exploring the sites. Start with the Plaza Mayor, Madrid’s main public square built during the Habsburg rule. Nearby you’ll find the city’s most famous square and most central location, the Plaza del Sol. Then visit an emblematic monument in Madrid, the magnificent Cibeles Fountain featuring a statue of the Roman goddess of nature. Another distinctive aspect of Madrid are the grand boulevards. Go for a stroll to take in the impressive boulevards and stately monuments around the Paseo del Prado and the Puerta de Alcala, which will give you a sense of Madrid’s grandeur under the rule of the great King Carlos III. Another interesting street is the Gran Via, a wonderful showcase of impressive 20th-century buildings.
