MADRID’S BEST starts with essential TRIP-PLANNING information and an overview of key NEIGHBOURHOODS so you can decide where to stay.

Hand-crafted ITINERARIES then offer first-timers the perfect walking-tour intro to Madrid’s historic core, with its opulent Palacio Real.

Or just dive right in to a section on SIGHTS & ACTIVITIES, organised by INTEREST. For art fans there’s the delight of the Prado, Reina Sofia and Thyssen-Bornemisza as well as a host of smaller galleries.

Other sections help you to plot Madrid's history; find kid-friendly diversions; succumb to city parks & gardens; and explore its football heritage; including Real Madrid’s splendid Santiago Bernabéu stadium.

More than anything else, though, Madrid is a city to be savoured by wandering streets, hanging out in BARS and CAFÉS, sampling tapas, and dancing the night away, as many native madrileños do.

The app will help you live like one by making authentic RESTAURANTS tapas bars easy to find, and by suggesting after-hours activities in clubs, theatres and more. But we haven’t forgotten to recommend SHOPS for souvenirs either!

INTRODUCING MADRID

Madrid has emerged from relative obscurity over the past 20 years to gain an increasing reputation as a fascinating and highly enjoyable city-break destination.

If you are an art fan there are few better places than the Spanish capital with the stand-out attractions of the Prado, Reina Sofia and the Thyssen-Bornemisza art galleries ably supported by a host of other lesser known, but fascinating museums.

The historic core of the old city, the extravagant opulence of the Palacio Real and the gargantuan splendour of the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, home to 13-time European Cup winners Real Madrid are just some of the other attractions that make Madrid an enticing destination.

More than anything else, however, Madrid is a city to be savoured and enjoyed by wandering its streets, hanging out in the bars and cafés, sampling the tapas, dancing the night away and generally living life to the full, just like its inhabitants, the madrileños.
