With just one ticket (included), you will be able to hop on and off the bus all day, stopping to admire whichever buildings or cultural sites most pique your interest. On the bus you’ll receive a set of headphones with commentary in fourteen languages, a map of the city and discount checks for several shops and restaurants. The buses follow two routes. Route nº 1 (Blue) starts and ends at the El Prado Museum and includes stops at the Salamanca neighbourhood, the Temple of Debod, the Royal Theatre, the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral, among many other sites.
