If
the best girl or the rest of the group have
told you in no uncertain terms to get on your
bike, then this is the option. Take the Henorita's
Madrid Cycling Tour around the diverse landscapes
of scenic central Madrid. Partying hens will
be glad of the exercise, the chance to get
some sun, and feel reinvigorated and ready
for more action! |

Our Madrid City bike tours give you a great insight on the whole city. They combine the advantages of walking (you go at your own pace, you can explore) and a guided bus tour (on short visits, you get around it all faster). The expert guide will fill you in on the local historic facts you tend not to glean while watching Ronaldo knocking them in at the Bernabeu. |

Madrid is a lady of deep and diverse charms, so don’t be phased if we begin at a real Egyptian Temple! The Templo de Debod was brought to Madrid in the sixties, strangely enough, and perched on a spectacular balcony overlooking the west approach of the city, and the Palacio Real (Royal Palace). |

|
Then we cycle down to the Casa de Campo estate, the scene of Hemingwayesque heroic struggles to keep Franco’s troops out of Madrid during the Spanish Civil war.

Coming
back in to the city you’ll
visit all of the major squares including
the spectacular Plaza Mayor, the Retiro Park,
the fountains of Cibeles and Neptune, and
the vast Palacio Real (Royal Palace). The
bike tour takes you to the historic old part
of town, but for traffic reasons does not
include the modern or business areas including
or the Santiago Bernabeu. To include a trip
to the Bernabeu, see the Sightsee
Special.
