Madrid Tours
|
|
Please note that these tours are of members only and involve a
fee. Prospective members often
ask it these are the complementary new member tours. The answer is no. But the new member tours do explore little known sites of great
interest, will likely whet your appetite for more, and are carefully
chosen by the Chairman, with no two tours exactly the same.

TOROS|
For members interested in going to a bull-fight in Madrid the
Society arranges tickets and offers a play by play from an
aficionado of almost 30 years standing. You are immersed in the
culture of the `CORRIDA´, including the famous Manolete Bar in the
downtown hotel where the bullfighters stay, a tour of the most
beautiful bull-ring in the world, Ventas and, in between the fights,
a chance to try your hand at drinking from the ´Bota´wine-skin!
Prices depend on the fight of the
day and the seating. |
