Jeremy's Tourist Offices & Guide Resources for Madrid

One of my favorite things about Madrid is the excellent network of tourist information centers, especially in the summertime when the tourist office even hits the streets. Here I have provided a list of the Madrid tourist offices around the city. You can click on the ,  , , icons to see the complete line trajectories and a map of the metro.

**Special Summer Info in the Streets

To help the huge amount of visitors to Madrid during the summer months, the municipal tourist board hits the streets and sets up shop at the most visited points of the city. The map below shows the location of the summer only tourist information booths in Madrid. This is a service provided by the "Patronato Municipal de Turismo" to make tourist, historical and practical information more availably to visitors to Madrid. I personally highly recommend these yellow booths, the employees are friendly and eager to help with anything and everything.

***Alternative Toursit Offices in Madrid

 

These are not-for-profit organizations that have the OK of the town hall to orient tourists and inform them about the city. While I prefer the official tourist offices, these may be an alternative as well. Keep in mind that unlike the official tourist offices, these entities charge for some of theirservices. The following is the main office of this organization:

CALLE CABALLERO DE GRACIA, 7 - 28013 - MADRID

tel: (+34) 91 531 44 57

fax: (+34) 91 531 44 57

Gran Vía, lines , or Sevilla, line
