I liked that they are very punctual, very friendly, the driver was excellent, she was very careful! We were also able to change lines without any problem, I liked that the buses run often and are well organized. We only noticed that one of the devices where the audio guides are connected failed and we had to change places. I also recommend that they clean the inside of the buses more, please, because the rest is great.

It was nice. Good route and nice audios while going around. The only thing I didn't like was that it is named "Hop on Hop off tour" but its a bus without stops, so especially with kids it would have been better to have that option of going down whenever you'd like.

Plus points: - always good to have a general view of a city - the 2 routes - historical & modern - are interesting Minuses: - too bad there weren't any intermediate stops so you could get off/climb to visit the sights - not all audio outlets worked properly - staff a bit nitpicky: with QR-Code + validity date, excessive to ask for printed tickets again

    Being able to see the highlights of the city. Disappointed that Madrid does not allow hopping on and off to take a better look at interesting spots

    Liked that we were able to see some of the sites in Madrid just being on the bus but wish the hop on hop off version wasn't banned in Madrid right now. We would rather be able to get off at different sites to explore more.

  • Getting started

    Start at either spot—you decide! Enter Liria Palace at Calle de la Princesa 20 (next to Ventura Rodríguez metro) with your mobile ticket. Or hop on the non-stop bus tour at Museo del Prado or Plaza de Neptuno—just flash your voucher and go. Both are valid on the same day or the next day, so explore on your terms.

    What to expect

    Liria Palace

    Liria Palace isn’t just a home—it’s a lived-in museum where centuries of Spanish history echo through frescoed ceilings and timeworn tapestries.

    Features:

    • Wander through 14 intimate rooms once walked by nobility, each space layered with legacy and lit by art.

    • Gaze at masterpieces by Goya, Velázquez, El Greco, and Murillo—not in sterile galleries, but hanging amidst antique chandeliers and velvet chairs.

    • Step into Flamboyant, a striking contemporary exhibition by Joana Vasconcelos, where baroque and bold collide.

    Madrid bus tour

    The panoramic bus tour is your front-row seat to the capital, with no rush, no maps, just the wind in your hair and a skyline of stories.

    Features:

    • Hop on a double-decker and cruise by icons like Puerta de Alcalá, the Royal Palace, and Retiro Park.

    • Choose between two routes or tackle both—the mix of historic gems and modern neighborhoods keeps things fresh.

    • Plug into the onboard audio guide available in multiple languages and uncover the real Madrid, one quirky commentary at a time.
