Your guide will stop at key landmarks—the Crystal Palace, sculptures, water features—sharing stories tied to Spanish royalty and city history.

Good to know
Luggage storage is free on-site. Start times depart from the park entrance itself, not your hotel. Pregnant travellers should skip this tour. Public transport nearby makes getting to the meeting point straightforward. Wear flat shoes and clothes you don't mind creasing.
