Private Retiro Park Segway Tour (1, 1.5 or 2 Hours)

4.8 (111 verified reviews)

About This Experience

A private Retiro tour where you choose the length rather than the operator. One hour covers the monuments; ninety minutes adds the quieter gardens; two hours covers the park properly, including the corners most group tours never reach.

The machines are Segway X2s — the all-terrain model, with wider tyres than the city version. Inside Retiro that mostly means the unpaved garden paths ride better, which is where the extra time is spent on the longer options.

Retiro sits inside the UNESCO-listed Landscape of Light, inscribed in 2021 alongside the Paseo del Prado. Guiding is available in Spanish, English or French, and because the tour is private the guide's pace is set by your group rather than by the slowest rider in a group of strangers.

5 stars - Andrei was an excellent guide. Friendly and knowledgeable about the park and Madrid. This was a great way to see all the park highlights and some less know places within the park. Would highly recommend!
