MADRID



Hit the Streets
Meet your private walking guide in the hotel lobby and set out on foot for a pleasant walking tour which reveals the secrets of the two must-see attractions of the Spanish capital: the Prado Museum, and the Royal Palace. Along the way, you'll get to discover the most important buildings and avenues of the vibrant Madrid, from the time of the Habsburgs and the Bourbons up until today. The Prado Museum is one of the most important art galleries in the world. Its main corpus is nourished by the royal collections treasured for centuries by different imperial dynasties. Together with Las Meninas de VelÁzquez and Goya’s May 3rd 1808, the galleries are full of masterpieces from the Spanish, Italian and Flemish schools. After your visit of the Prado, you'll be treated to a coffee break to recharge your batteries and take in the local ambiance. From there, you'll follow your guide on a walk to Madrid's Royal Palace, the largest in all of Western Europe. Built during the 18th century by Felipe V, the first king of the Bourbon dynasty, it is used in modern times by the Spanish Crown. As you visit, admire the official reception rooms, the museum area, the Royal Chapel, the Throne Room and the private rooms of King Carlos III and Queen Isabel II. After your tour, you may continue your Palace visit at leisure before independent return to your hotel.
Experience the passion of Flamenco and the flavors of Spain on a shared evening in Madrid where music, dance, and a gourmet meal come together in one immersive activity. Make your own way to Corral de la Moreria, an iconic tablao in the city’s Old Quarter, and settle into the intimate dining room for a tasting menu of five authentic Spanish dishes thoughtfully paired with wine and mineral water. Crafted by a Michelin-starred chef, each course showcases traditional flavors with refined presentation and seasonal ingredients. As the lights dim, be captivated by the intensity and emotion of the Flamenco performance, where dancers, guitarists, and singers bring this centuries-old Andalusian art form vividly to life. Surrounded by fellow guests, you’ll witness the power, rhythm, and soul that have made Flamenco a treasured cultural tradition. When the show concludes, the evening winds down as you continue on your own, carrying the music, movement, and flavors of Madrid with you.
