Let's go through Christmas in Madrid
It is already a classic of these dates in Madrid. ** Naviluz , the Christmas bus , will tour the streets of the city between November 29 and January 6 ** as an alternative to visit the Christmas lights.
The journeys, which will last between 40 and 50 minutes, will leave from number 30 Serrano Street and will go through Puerta de Alcalá, Cibeles, Alcalá, Gran Vía, Callao, Jacometrezo, Santo Domingo, San Bernardo, Gran Vía, Alcalá, Cibeles, Puerta de Alcalá, Velázquez, Ortega y Gasset and, again, Serrano.
And yes, tickets are already on sale through the website that the Municipal Transport Company (EMT) enables for Naviluz. The price is 4 euros per person (double last year) and 2 euros for those over 65 and people with disabilities. Children under 7 years of age can access the bus for free, but they will also need to reserve their seat. In each order, a maximum of 10 tickets can be purchased, three in the case of free ones.
When buying the ticket, you will have to Choose the day and time you want to enjoy this trip. The Naviluz will be operational every day until January 6 inclusive, except on December 24 and 31 and January 5, from 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., coinciding with the switching on of the Christmas lights. The last trip will start between 10:00 p.m. and 10:15 p.m.
In order to access the already mythical blue double-decker convertible buses, you will have to go on the day and time that marks your entrance to Plaza de Colón, to the already mentioned number 30 of Calle Serrano. This will be the only access point to the Naviluz. During the rest of the route there will be only one optional stop at Gran Vía 49 and it will be downhill.
