Exploring Madrid & Day Tripping to Toledo

In this episode of the Travel Squad Podcast, we’re taking you on a journey through Madrid and Toledo, Spain; two incredible cities filled with history, culture, and amazing food! We spent three days exploring these destinations, strolling through charming streets, indulging in delicious tapas, and soaking in Spain’s rich heritage.

Madrid, Spain’s capital, offers a mix of royal history, grand plazas, and world-class cuisine. Meanwhile, Toledo, just a short train ride away, is a UNESCO medieval fortress city with stunning cathedrals, ancient alleyways, and breathtaking views. Whether you're a history buff, foodie, or culture lover, this episode is packed with travel tips, must-visit spots, and unforgettable experiences.

Highlights of Madrid Include:

Puerta Del Sol

While in Madrid, we stayed at the Hotel Agumar. It is conveniently located across the street from Madrid’s main train station, close to several metro lines, and within walking distance to Retiro Park and other main attractions in central Madrid.
