MADRID

TRAVEL TIPS

for first-timers

1

Planning Your Madrid Visit

Madrid, as Spain's capital, boasts numerous must-see landmarks conveniently clustered in the same area, including Plaza Mayor, Almudena Cathedral, and the Royal Palace of Madrid.

2

VISIT RETIRO PARK

Other must-visits include Retiro Park where you can hire boats and the Gran Vía. This is mostly a shopping district, but head up to the rooftop of Círculo de Bellas Artes for sensational views.

3

STAY AT LEAST 3 DAYS

Madrid offers an abundance of attractions, so plan for at least a three-day visit. If you're short on time, two days can suffice. For those with more time, explore the city's exciting day trip options.

4

MADRID'S METRO IS EFFICIENT

Madrid’s underground metro network is convenient and cheap, and it connects the entire city. Although there are buses throughout the day and night, you’re unlikely to need them as the metro runs from 6 am to 1:30 am.

5

MONEY IN MADRID

Madrid, like the rest of Spain, uses the euro currency. Hotels, shops, and almost all restaurants and bars will accept card payment so bring a travel credit card. You will need cash for markets and tipping.

6

DINING IN MADRID

Begin your day at Chocolatería San Ginés, a Madrid icon, with churros dipped in rich chocolate. Savor classic Madrileño dishes, including vermouth, patatas bravas, tortillas, ham, and seafood like calamari and squid. For the finest tapas in the city, head to Calle Cava Baja.

7

Access Madrid’s Museums for Free

The Prado Museum offers free admission from 6 pm to 8 pm on Monday through Saturday and from 5 pm to 7 pm on public holidays. The Reina Sofía provides free entry from 7 pm to 9 pm on Monday and Wednesday through Saturday, and from 12:30 pm to 2 pm on Sundays.
