    The views from above were really stunning. The monastery is very impressive in size, just like the gardens surrounding it. Thank you very much for all the information and the nice video. 👍

    Regarding the free entrance time slots: Looks like mother Spain has forgotten to include its faraway former colony once again - the Philippines.

    Hello Tony and Cecilia! We are considering adding a stop at El Escorial, either on our way from Madrid to Segovia, or on the way back. We would like to do it by train, and per your recommendation I have been using the wonderful Trainline app. (Thank you!) But having no luck finding a train from Madrid (Atocha) to El Escorial using the link you provided, or Renfe's site. Am I looking in the right place?

    • @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal
      @ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Hi Craig, we recommend the Trainline for high-speed trains. In the case of Madrid-El Escorial, it is a local train, so you won't find it on the app. You can buy your tickets on the go. All the best!

      @@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal If I may ask one more question, do you have a video explaining how to get from Madrid Atocha to Madrid-Chamartin-Clara Campoamor? We purchased train tickets for Toledo to Segovia, and it appears we have to switch train stations, and have less than one hour to do so. I'm trying to figure out if that's possible, and how.

    Why would anyone support financially, an institution that actively discriminates based upon a person’s country of origin? I’d have to give it a pass.
