  • Do you have a layover? Are you in transit in Madrid, Spain. Don't just sit in the airport. There are a lot of things to do in Madrid,
    See how easy and cheaply you can get into the city, and walk around some of the main attractions and best things to do in Madrid
    I visit the stunning El Retiro Park, which houses the Palacio de Cristal (Crystal Palace). Walk for free around the gardens of the Royal Palace of Madrid, and see the only Egyptian temple outside of Egypt, Temple of Debod,
    We have 8 hours to explore but you can still do a lot with less time, just get out of the airport and see some of the wonders of Madrid.

    This video is mapped out so well, figurately and literally. Very specific, the train cards, the sights! You've done the planning for me essentially for my 24 hrs in Madrid. Thank you so so much.

    I really enjoyed this quick tour of Madrid and the useful information about getting to the city centre from the airport. I've now watched about 5 of your videos and have subscribed. Thank you for the great content. Yours is one of the best channels I've found for travel content. Greetings from Toronto.

      Hi Michael, thank you so much for joining our adventure and so pleased you have found our information of interest for you. Great to hear from you in Toronto somewhere I (Simon) have visited many many times for work and have loved spending time there and riding the street cars on King St! Sadly not been for a few years now and miss it. Greetings from London.

    Amazing video! Going to have an 11 hour layover in Madrid

    Such a great video! I was planning to mostly go to the city to check out the Prado Museum in my 10 hour layover but wasn’t sure if it was too risky 😅
    Looks like it’s completely doable.
    Any tips regarding pickpockets and what to watch out for?

    How long did it take you to get to the train station from your terminal? And how long was the process when arriving back to the airport to catch your flight? We will have 8 hrs as well.

    • @MemorySeekers

      From memory it was just a 10 min walk down to the station. You should still get back to the airport 2 hours before departure, don’t recall any issues but that can change daily.
