Stroll among more than 19,000 trees across 167 species, explore beautifully designed gardens, shimmering lakes, and impressive monuments that make this park one of Madrid’s top attractions.
Your expert local guide will take you to the park’s must-see highlights—including the Crystal Palace and the Philip IV Gate—while also revealing hidden corners and fascinating stories rarely found in guidebooks. It’s the perfect blend of nature, culture, and history.
