Children will learn about artistic techniques and Mythological themes that were popular from the age of the Renaissance through the nineteenth century. Together with your guide, you will discover monsters and heroes, and explore themes such as family units, patronage, history of taste and fashion, the representation of girls and women, and the (very!) important role of animals in a series of paintings.

This morning, you will discover Madrid’s historic city center on a private family-friendly walking tour with an expert guide. This tour is specifically designed for kids ages 4 to 12, with special activities and conversation topics for each age group. You can even add on language learning activities if your kids are interested in practicing their Spanish! This private walking tour explores the city’s beautiful historic center, passing through Madrid’s main sights: The Royal Palace, Plaza de la Villa, San Miguel Market, Plaza Mayor and the Puerta del Sol. The fun and dynamic tour will keep your children engaged throughout with stories of Spanish history explorers, kings and queens, princes and princesses, knights, artists, and more. For young children, activities and games may include searching for the symbol of Madrid throughout the tour the beloved “oso” bear! About one hour into the tour, you’ll make your first stop for a tasting of the best Iberian ham and cured meats at a traditional, family-run ham shop. Adults and children will enjoy a beverage of choice (cava, wine, beer, soft drinks, or water) and kids will learn the art of making Spanish sandwiches, called “bocadillos” as they learn all about Spanish culture and how kids their own age live in Spain. Towards the end of the route, you’ll make your second food stop at Chocolatería San Ginés, the city’s most famous spot for piping hot churros and chocolate.

Park Güell: If your kids have been craving a park-like setting on your vacation, then your family is going to love your first stop: Park Güell. While you'll revel in the beautifully designed individual houses with small gardens, your kids will enjoy the curvy roads and walkways that give them a chance to prance around and release some energy. Not to mention that they will love the scavenger hunt that is included at this stop.

As you and your family go through this next stop in the tour, keep your eyes open while viewing the church's interior as it was designed to resemble a forest of trees among sparkling stained glass windows.
