1. Panoramic Madrid City Sightseeing Tour

On this tour you are driven around Madrid's biggest sights, including Plaza de Espana, de Oriente, Mayor, Puerta del Sol, Atocha, Neptuno, Cibeles, Puerta de Alcala, Colon and Plaza de Castilla; the historic quarters of Austrias, the Borbouns and Salamanca, Casa de Campo and Retiro Parks, the bull ring and the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, home of the famous Real Madrid football team.

This tour is similar to 'hop-on-hop-off' version, but with a few major differences. For a start, you have a real guide, not a tape recording, and the bus stops less often than the other service (no one is getting on and off.

2. Walking Tour of Barcelona

A basic walking tour of Barcelona's main sights in the Gothic Quarter.

4. Morning Walking Tour of Cordoba
