Description

Explore Madrid after dark by self-balancing Segway, and experience the extraordinary night-time atmosphere of the Spanish capital. Meet your guide at Plaza San Miguel by the Mercado San Miguel, and take a short training session to learn to operate the 2-wheel vehicles with confidence. Once you feel comfortable, glide off to watch the city come alive after dusk. Marvel at the illuminated architecture of the city at night. Your guide will take you on a journey back in time to the Madrid de Los Austrias from the Hapsburg era, passing the ornate façade of the Royal Palace (Palacio Real) and the imposing buildings of Plaza Mayor. Along the way, you will see the ancient Temple of Debod, gifted from the city of Aswan in 1968, one of the oldest restaurants in the world at the Sobrino de Botín, mentioned by Hemingway in “The Sun Also Rises,” and the mighty domes and bronze doors of the Almudena Cathedral.
