It was difficult to find the bus stop, so we missed the Madrid history tour and had to use the contemporary Madrid tour instead.

A city tour. On the other hand, it wasn't clear where to take the bus. The signs are well hidden. In Barcelona it was better indicated.

We see many interesting points of the city. Sometimes the audio guide describes something, but you're not quite there. It does, however, give us some interesting historical information.

We liked the routes and the kindness of the drivers. We enjoyed the time it lasted we were able to enjoy the whole day. We did not like that a lot of the places to plug in the headphones were not working at all. We had to change seats several times.
