We tour the stadium museum with all of the famous trophies throughout the years. The history of the team and the players old and new. We toured the stadium from top to bottom and got on the sideline and the Real Madrid players seating area. We saw the dressing room, the training area, and stadium layout.

Ana Cristina is very good. Very well informed. She made the visit very enjoyable. And we learned a lot. We did not queue. She was waiting for us punctually at the right place. It is a very different experience. We had gone alone. It is much better to do it with who you know.

Liked that we were able to see some of the sites in Madrid just being on the bus but wish the hop on hop off version wasn't banned in Madrid right now. We would rather be able to get off at different sites to explore more.
