Are you ready to turn your hobbies into a business?
Madrid's grandest mile runs from a palace that's actually a post office to a glass palace that was built for plants — and this trail connects them one riddle at a time.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Madrid on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Size up the Palacio de Cibeles, the cathedral-like former post office on Madrid's most famous plaza • Wander into the Parque del Retiro, the city's great green escape • Find the Palacio de Cristal, a Victorian greenhouse turned art space by the lake
Around 2 hours, any group size, available in Spanish, English, French, and German.

Starting at Calle de Alcalá 48, by Plaza de Cibeles, you'll open the Explorial app, enter the 6-digit game code that you received by text and Viator chat message, and start solving. The tour is fully self-guided — no guide, no fixed start time, just your group and the city.
