Escorial Tour Day #3 15 Sep 2008 - 31 Dec 2008     $58 01 Jan 2009 - 31 Mar 2009     $58 Enjoy a visit to what has often been described as the "eighth wonder of the world." El Escorial is, perhaps, Philip II´s most enduring legacy to Spain. This combination monastery-palace-mausoleum is situated approximately one hour outside of Madrid in the foothills of the Guadarrama Mountains. This austere monastery, erected by King Philip II in 1584, was intended to be a memorial to his father, King Charles V, and to commemorate Spain´s victory at Saint Quentin in 1557. It has since become the burial place of subsequent Spanish kings and queens. Evening Flamenco Show Day #6 01 Apr 2008 - 31 Dec 2008     $48 01 Jan 2009 - 31 Mar 2009     $48 This evening, enjoy a drink and traditional Flamenco show. As performed by some of Seville's leading Flamenco artists, enjoy routines based on the cante jondo or "deep song," which describes the performer´s profound emotions in ancient poetic phrases. Although the development of Flamenco has centered principally in the region of Andalusia, it has come to embrace many of the folk traditions of the northern provinces. As a result, it has become, along with the bullfight, a popular symbol of Spain. Book your Optional Tours before you travel and see more, save time, save money, and protect your investment.
