El Escorial, El Escorial, Spain
This comprehensive full-day itinerary encompasses a half-day exploration of the Monastery of El Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen, immediately followed by a half-day journey to Segovia for further sightseeing opportunities.
On a full-day tour, commence with an early-morning exploration of the Monastery of El Escorial, constructed during the reign of King Philip II as a royal residence. Admire its architectural splendor, including the Pantheon of the Royal Family, which has been designated a Monument of Artistic and Historical Interest and Mankind Heritage.
Subsequent stops include the Monastery itself, the Cloister of the Four Evangelists, the Palace of Philip II, the Pantheon of the Royal Family, the Chapterhouses, and the Basilica. Your itinerary also encompasses the Valley of the Fallen, situated in a scenic valley within the Guadarrama Mountains, featuring a colossal cross reaching nearly 150 meters in height. Inside the Basilica, explore the magnificent interior spaces carved into the rock beneath the mountain's surface.
Afterward, depart Madrid around 14:00 hours and proceed to Segovia. Upon arrival, begin your journey with a visit to Plaza del Azoguejo, where the Roman Aqueduct is prominently displayed. Continue along the historic district, admiring the Town Hall Square, the exterior of the Gothic Cathedral, and the Alcázar Castle dating back to the 12th century, once serving as the fortified palace of the Kings of Castile. Enjoy a brief break to browse local shops before returning to Madrid.
End your day in Madrid at approximately 20:00 hours.
