Retiro Park Segway Tour (2 Hours)

4.8 (103 verified reviews)

About This Experience

Two hours, starting and finishing at Plaza de Ópera, with the Barrio de las Letras on the way to and from Retiro. That approach is the difference between this tour and the ones that start at a park gate: you ride the literary quarter where Cervantes and Lope de Vega lived before you reach the gardens.

In the park the stops are the familiar ones — the Palacio de Cristal, the lake, the palaces and statues — but the pace is unhurried because the schedule allows for it. The operator's own framing is legends rather than dates, which suits the park: Retiro carries more of them than any other public space in Madrid.

Included are a local guide, a 50 cl bottle of water and luggage storage at the shop while you ride. Food and gratuities are not.

José's tour was very enjoyable. A very nice walk with interesting facts. It was very dynamic to explore El Retiro this way.

It was fun. A very nice guide. An excursion that was both educational and experiential with the saguaro. Recommended 👍

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this tour only cover Retiro?

No — it starts at Plaza de Ópera and rides through the Barrio de las Letras in each direction, so you get the literary quarter as well as the park. Tours that begin at a Retiro gate skip that.

Is two hours better than one in Retiro?

For the park itself, yes: an hour covers the monuments, two hours covers them without hurrying and adds the approach through the centre. For a first-time Segway rider, an hour is less tiring.

What is included?

A local guide, the Segway tour, a 50 cl bottle of mineral water and luggage storage. Food and gratuities are not included.

What is the minimum age?

Ten years old. The tour is not suitable during pregnancy.
