About Madrid
Located in the heart of Spain, Madrid is not the most visited capital city in Europe. It often takes a back seat to cities like Barcelona, Seville, Valencia, and other cities closer to the eastern or southern coast.
However, that does not mean that Madrid is not worth visiting, it just shows how unique each part of Spain is, and Madrid is definitely not an exception. Madrid is a blend of different cultures while still maintaining its Spanish roots. From its incredible architecture to top-notch dishes and famous museums, there is something in store for you.
Madrid was founded back in the 9th century when the Moorish ruled the city. It was declared the capital of Spain in 1561 and has been maintaining this title ever since. The city endured several events over the centuries, such as the Spanish Civil War which affected the city not only during the conflict, it also left a footprint in the way Madrid is shaped today.
The Madrid we know today is famous for its stunning architecture that reflects different styles, its numerous parks, especially the famous Buen Retiro Park, the Royal Palace where the Spanish royal family lives, diverse nightlife, and, of course, football. The worldwide-known football club Real Madrid FC is almost like the cityâs identity, as it is recognized as one of the most famous clubs in the world.
Madrid is a city where you will never get bored, making it the perfect destination for anyone. As you walk through its streets, you will immediately be charmed by the city's dynamic and welcoming atmosphere.

Give peace of mind to your trip from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid by checking out these travel tips that will ensure a smooth trip:
Get the Madrid City Card
By purchasing the Madrid City Card, you will get discounts and other benefits when visiting the main city's attractions. Some of the benefits include a skip-the-line entrance. The card also includes a Tourist Travel Pass which allows you to use public transport without any extra cost. You can purchase the card for 1 to 5 consecutive days: the 1-day card costs almost $11 (âŹ10), and the 5-day card costs around $35 (âŹ32.50)
Avoid the rush hours
As Madrid is a big city, it is recommended to plan your main activities outside the rush hours which, give or take, are usually from 7:30 to 9:30 AM and 6 to 8 PM.
How to get from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid
There are several Santiago de Compostela to Madrid transfer options, so make sure you check them all out and find what suits your preferences and fits your schedule.
From Santiago de Compostela to Madrid by bus
The most affordable way to travel from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid is by bus. And while taking a bus is a relatively cheap way to move between the cities, it is also the one that takes the longest. You can opt for the Spanish bus company Alsa which offers direct routes from around $28 (âŹ26). The ride takes around 8.5 to 9.5 hours.
From Santiago de Compostela to Madrid by train
If time is an important factor, choose the high-speed train operated by Renfe. These fast trains will take you to Madrid in just 3 to 3.5 hours. By booking in advance, you can find tickets for as little as $53 (âŹ49).
From Santiago de Compostela to Madrid by plane
Another relatively quick way to reach Madrid is by flight. Such airlines as Ryanair offer very cheap prices for direct flights from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid: from just $16 (âŹ15). And while it might sound cheap, thatâs not all you will spend, as you also need to get to and from the airport.
The flight duration is just 1 hour and 15 minutes but you have to factor in the possible delays, 2 hours of wait time, and getting to the airport and then leaving it to reach your accommodation. In the end, you will spend around 4 to 5 hours traveling by air.
From Santiago de Compostela to Madrid by private car service
For those who prioritize comfort and flexibility, Daytrip will be the perfect choice. With Daytrip, worries about delayed flights and buses are forgotten, as your local driver will pick you up at your accommodation, saving the time you would otherwise spend commuting.
Our drivers speak English, so it means that even if you only know how to say gracias, you will be able to communicate fluently and even ask for the best recommendations only locals know. Flexibility is our middle name which means that your journey wonât be just a simple transfer.
Although the drive takes approximately 5 hours and 50 minutes, the ride will feel like a breeze, as with Datrip, you can explore any sightseeing stops of your choice. Not far from your take-off point, you can wander around the gorgeous Baroque-style gardens at Pazo de Oca. Then, close to Portugal's border, you can stop by the Iberico Wolf Center which is a wolf sanctuary that takes care of wolves that can no longer survive in the wild.
Not far away from Valladolid, you can visit the Royal Convent of Santa Clara which originally was built as a palace. Before you arrive in Madrid, take a break to admire the imposing Monastery of El Escorial.
Things to do when you get to Madrid
Madrid is an immense city with so many attractions to choose from! While it might be hard to fit all the things in your schedule, here are some of our preferred things to see or do that will make your trip even more special.
Explore the famous Prado Museum
Prado Museum is a must for those who have never visited Madrid. It is not only the most important museum in Spain, it is also recognized worldwide, as it houses one of the largest art collections. It is a paradise for history and art enthusiasts, so if that describes you, make sure to find 2 to 4 hours to immerse yourself in its impressive cultural heritage. Be aware that you should book your tickets in advance. Prado Museum also houses the famous painting âLas Meninasâ by Diego VelĂĄzquez.
Take a glimpse at the royal life
The Royal Palace is another must-visit place in Madrid. Take a guided tour and wander around the stunning rooms filled with history, royal luxury, art, and decorations. Although the palace is the official residence of the royal family, they no longer live there but it is nevertheless worth visiting. To enter this palace, it is also recommended to purchase the tickets in advance.
Stroll around the Retiro Park
If you are visiting in summer, Retiro Park is a fantastic place to escape the sun, but it's worth exploring even in winter. In the heart of this huge park, you will find a picturesque lake where you can watch rowboats glide by. One side of the lake is hugged by the impressive Monument to Alfonso XII. The charming 19th-century Crystal Palace, originally built as a greenhouse, is located in the middle of the park and is made of large glass panels. Be sure to visit the lovely rose garden, filled with a wide variety of colors and scents.
Try the local food
You can find any type of food in Madrid but there is nothing like trying the local delicacies. Here are some of our favorite dishes that you should include in your menu:
- Cocido madrileño: a stew made of chickpeas, meat, and vegetables. A true classic you cannot miss!
- Huevos rotos: also known as huevos estrellados which translates to âbroken eggsâ. This dish is made of fried eggs with runny yolks. It is served with fried potatoes and topped with slices of jamĂłn or chorizo.
- Buñuelos rellenos: while these sweet, sugar-coated pastries are usually available during Easter and other festivities, you will likely find them in one of the local bakeries.
When is the best time to visit Madrid
When it comes to Spain, it is usually recommended to visit any cities in spring (from March to May) or fall (September and October). Summers are usually unbearably hot, so visiting during the shoulder season will not only save you from the heat but will also help you save some dollars, as the accommodation during the off-season is more affordable.
As it does not rain that often in Madrid, you will most likely wonât experience much rain, making it a perfect time to explore the capital of Spain.
Spring is also a great time to visit Madrid, as the city is in full bloom. All the parks and gardens are filled with colorful flowers and trees are either blooming or showcasing the green leaves. It is also the perfect time to stroll around Retiro Park.

Varför folk Àlskar Daytrip
- 153 resenÀrer tog denna rutt med oss
âJag anvĂ€nde denna tjĂ€nst för en transfer frĂ„n Split i Kroatien till Perast i Montenegro. Min upplevelse var exceptionell. Min chaufför Bojan var hjĂ€lpsam, informativ och sĂ„g till att min resa var bekvĂ€m och trevlig. Jag rekommenderar starkt denna tjĂ€nst.â
âVi var mycket nöjda med kvaliteten pĂ„ den service vi fick frĂ„n Day Trip. Vi hade tvĂ„ resor med Day Trip: den 31 augusti frĂ„n Aten till Lefkada och den 7 september frĂ„n Lefkada tillbaka till Aten. BĂ„da resorna inkluderade stopp vid natursköna platser i Grekland. BĂ„da förarna var utmĂ€rkta och tillmötesgĂ„ende. Vi vill dock sĂ€rskilt uppmĂ€rksamma Panos Peppas, som var vĂ„r förare frĂ„n Lefkada till Aten. Panos var otroligt trevlig och behaglig och levererade enastĂ„ende kundservice, som inkluderade att han tog hand om allt vĂ„rt bagage, gav oss kallt vatten under hela resan, försĂ„g oss med proteinbars, gav oss tryckt material om Korintkanalen (ett av de natursköna stoppen), tog reda pĂ„ och gav oss terminal- och gateinformation för vĂ„rt flyg hem, samt gav oss ett recept pĂ„ tzatziki.â
Det bÀsta transportföretaget var som helst
âVi Ă€lskar verkligen det hĂ€r företaget och har anvĂ€nt det mĂ„nga gĂ„nger genom Ă„ren för att ta oss frĂ„n A till B utan krĂ„nglet med att hyra bil sjĂ€lva. UtmĂ€rkta chaufförer varje gĂ„ng. Effektiva och professionella. Det Ă€r vĂ€rt varenda krona, och vi rekommenderar Ă€rligt Day Trip till alla. Deras femstjĂ€rniga betyg Ă€r vĂ€lförtjĂ€nt.â
âVi reste frĂ„n NĂŒrnberg till MĂŒnchen i en vacker Audi. Chauffören hĂ€mtade oss pĂ„ vĂ„rt hotell exakt vid den begĂ€rda tiden. Han fick oss till MĂŒnchen i god tid för vĂ„r nĂ€sta tur. Chauffören sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt.â
PrisvÀrd och sÀker transport
âGonzalo frĂ„n Daytrip var vĂ„r chaufför och han var helt fantastisk. Han gjorde allt för att hitta oss eftersom vĂ„r mobiltĂ€ckning var dĂ„lig. Han vĂ€ntade tĂ„lmodigt i lobbyn tills vi kom, sĂ„ att han kunde köra oss frĂ„n Tulum Dreams Resort till vĂ„rt andra hotell i CancĂșn, en och en halv timme bort nĂ€ra flygplatsen inför vĂ„r hemresa. Han var artig, respektfull och vĂ€nlig. Han sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt under hela resan. Snabb och effektiv. Jag rekommenderar detta företag eftersom det inte Ă€r lĂ€tt eller billigt att hitta en enkelresa frĂ„n Tulum till CancĂșn, och detta företag erbjuder en utmĂ€rkt tjĂ€nst till ett bra pris. Jag kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda dem igen nĂ€r jag Ă€r i omrĂ„det CancĂșn/Tulum. Tack DayTrip och Gonzalo.â
Daytrip gör en aldrig besviken
âMarianna hĂ€mtade oss för att köra oss frĂ„n Heraklion till Chania. VĂ€dret var hemskt, och pĂ„ grund av detta kom Marianna nĂ„gra minuter sent. Hon kontaktade mig för att meddela det. Marianna bor i Chania och gjorde resan vĂ€ldigt intressant genom att berĂ€tta om lokala sevĂ€rdheter och saker att göra i Chania. Marianna Ă€r en sĂ€ker förare och vi kĂ€nde oss alla trygga med bĂ„de hastigheten och hur bra hon körde i det kraftiga regnet. Hon Ă€r en underbar person och talar flytande engelska. Vi rekommenderar verkligen Daytrip, och om du Ă€r i Heraklion eller Chania, se till att frĂ„ga efter Marianna.â
Fantastisk chaufför i Egypten
âJag anvĂ€nde tjĂ€nsten för att Ă„ka frĂ„n Luxor till Hurghada, Egypten. Ahmed H var vĂ„r chaufför och han var perfekt. Bilen var ny, ren, han hade vatten och snacks för oss och anpassade sig efter vĂ„ra stopp. Fantastisk service frĂ„n honom, jag rekommenderar det varmt.â
BekvÀma och sÀkra resor i Mexiko
âVi anvĂ€nde Daytrip för tvĂ„ resor i Mexiko, och bĂ„da var fantastiska. SĂ„ bekvĂ€mt, och vi anlĂ€nde till varje destination i perfekt tid. BĂ„da förarna var otroliga, och vi kĂ€nde oss vĂ€ldigt trygga. En av vĂ„ra förare, Miguel, spelade dessutom den bĂ€sta musiken! Vi kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda Daytrip pĂ„ vĂ„r nĂ€sta resa till Mexiko.â
Ett fantastiskt sÀtt att resa och se sevÀrdheter lÀngs vÀgen
âVi visste inte vad vi skulle förvĂ€nta oss av denna resa och bokade frĂ„n Australien. Vi letade frĂ„n början efter ett enkelt sĂ€tt att resa frĂ„n Granada till Malaga. Vi bestĂ€mde oss för att inte missa möjligheten att se nĂ„got extra pĂ„ vĂ€gen. Miguel övertrĂ€ffade verkligen vĂ„ra förvĂ€ntningar. Hans engelska var utmĂ€rkt (tyvĂ€rr talar vi mycket lite spanska), och han var mycket vĂ€nlig och hjĂ€lpsam. Vi njöt verkligen av att höra om regionerna nĂ€r vi passerade genom dem och Ă€ven att diskutera nĂ„gra av de lokala sĂ€tten. Miguel tog oss till Antequera som planerat och sĂ„g till att vi enkelt kunde fĂ„ vĂ„ra biljetter till attraktionerna utan nĂ„gon brĂ„dska. Vi blev upphĂ€mtade och avlĂ€mnade punktligt och njöt verkligen av vĂ„r resa. Förhoppningsvis kommer vi att Ă„tervĂ€nda till Spanien och vi kan anvĂ€nda denna tjĂ€nst igen nĂ„gon gĂ„ng.â
âVi anvĂ€nde tjĂ€nsten tvĂ„ gĂ„nger medan vi var i Thailand. Extremt snabb och effektiv kundservice. BĂ€sta pris som erbjuds i Chiang Mai för resorna. Artiga, punktliga, professionella och engelsktalande chaufförer. Rena, bekvĂ€ma fordon. Som en regelbunden besökare i Thailand var detta den bĂ€sta servicen, utan tvekan. Mycket nöjd med företaget. Jag hoppas att det bibehĂ„ller den serviceexcellens som gavs till oss.â
