Teleférico de Madrid
A vintage 1969 cable car gliding from Parque del Oeste over the river into Casa de Campo.
The call
Worth it if you are traveling with kids and you are traveling as a couple.
Why
- 01
A nostalgic, low-key joyride with nice aerial views over the city's western greenbelt and rooftops, fun with kids.
Our read - 02
The catch is it deposits you in the middle of Casa de Campo with little right there, the cabins are dated, and it can close in bad weather or off-season.
