5.00Very immersive and intensive half day tour. Able to see a lot in a short period of time. The Escorial was much larger than I expected.
Good, but the Better

5.00The tour of the monastery was very nice but the tour of the fallen valor monument was exceptional. For your sake, do not take a tour to this area that does not stop at this monument
