What you can expect

Visit one of the most important monuments located on the outskirts of Madrid.

Departing early in the morning, you’ll be taken to the Monastery of El Escorial, where you’ll visit the former home of the Royal Spanish Family, the basilica that houses the tumbs of former Spanish kings, and the monastery, founded by monks of St.Jerome’s Order, currently occuppied by friars of St. Augustine’s Order.

This monastery is one of the most curious renaissance buildings in Spain and overall of Europe. Besides, you’ll get to visit the gardens of the friars, ultimate proof of the concept of gardening that King Phillip II had, which was finding visual beauty as well as allowing the cultivation of vegetables and fruits.

Includes transport to the Monastery of El Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen, a complex built between the years 1940 and 1958 as a memorial monument to honour the memory of the fallen. There, you’ll find the largest cross of the Christian world and one of the largest churches in the world.
