Do you want to experience Madrid and all that it has to offer? Come and join me to wander through Madrid, try a new wine, enjoy the Spanish tapas, head to Segovia and see the aqueducts, and join a walking tour to learn about the history of this beautiful city! My name is Louise, and I am a 58-year young grandma who wants to see as much of the world as I can while I still can! I went to Spain back in 2019 on a bus tour and fell in love with the country! I want to go back to explore some of the areas I briefly saw, and would love for others to join me! We will stay in an apartment close to the city center and close to metro stops, with easy access to many different areas of Madrid. We will enjoy our days walking through the city center, so bring some comfy shoes! Let's catch a flamenco show one night! Head out and see the amazing architecture. We will take a day trip to Segovia and Toledo, to visit the aqueducts and the castles that decorate the countryside of this beautiful country. Let's try some paella, perhaps you'd like some sopa de ajo (garlic soup), or how about some churros? Spanish cuisine is one of the most popular in the world so let's take some time to indulge! We will head to Plaza Mayor, and enjoy a coffee and pastry and people-watch. There is so much to do in Madrid in a week, let's see just how much we can do! What is included in the price? - Accommodation (apartment with shared rooms) - Segovia and Avila excursion - Valencia excursion - Flamenco show Not Included: - Food and drink (unless specified) - Transportation (unless specified) Bienvenido to Madrid!
