Nani was incredible. She was knowledgeable, personable, sophisticated, and curated the tour to our group. She offered great insider suggestions for things we wanted to do during our entire time in Spain like restaurant recommendations, best travel tips, the best options for navigating the airport, etc. We HIGHLY recommend Nani!

We had an enjoyable trip to El Escorial (a UNESCO site) and the Valley of the Fallen with Nani. We spent two hours at El Escorial, going through rooms (not all are public) of this huge palace, including the chambers of the King and Queen, those where the kings' caskets are, and the library. The highlight of the Valley of the Fallen is the basilica where Franco is buried. Nani expertly explained the history of both places and talked about the controversies surrounding the Valley of the Fallen.

The driver and I will pick you up at the hotel and drive to Escorial Monastery first (about 1 hr ride) where we will visit the Habsburg Palace, the Royal Pantheons, Basilica and Libraty. Afterwards, we will take you to the Valley of the Fallen (15 min ride) located about 2500 ft above the sea level. Here we will see the Basilica and enjoy the views as well. Then, we will drive back to Madrid (about 45 min ride)
