Madrid's origins remain a mystery. Some say it was founded as a defensive site by the Arabs, others claim a Celtic origin, and others claim that the first inhabitants were the Romans. The Royal Palace, the Almudena, the Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol, or the Gran Via, a walk through Retiro Park, or visiting the Golden Triangle (its 3 museums), will ensure that you will not forget Madrid in a hurry.

Getting to Madrid

With all this, to hire a motorhome in Madrid is a total adventure, since you have cities worth visiting very close by and very well connected.
