Hello dear fellow travelers,
I am traveling solo to Madrid and Toledo during the October 12th "Hispanic Day" national holiday - includes a Monday.
Do I need to worry about museum and site closures and reduced train schedules?
In my 13 day itinerary I have been planning to take the AVE train from Seville to Madrid on Saturday October 12th, then see Toledo as a day trip on Monday October 14th.
I fly out to Lisbon Portugal at 9:55pm on Tuesday Ocotber 15th.
So I have basically 3 days in Madrid;
Sunday October 13th
Monday October 14th
Tuesday October 15th until 6:00pm for 9:55pm flight.
I would LOVE your feedback. Here are my questions;
Should I rearrange so I can travel up from Seville on the AVE on October 11th?
Is the military parade worth seeing or mainly better to avoid as a crowd maker?
Can I see the main sites in Madrid and Toledo in those dates (October 13-15) considering the holiday and Monday?
Should I switch my Toledo trip to Sunday October 13 because the royal palace is closed on Mondays in Toeledo?
I SO APPRECIATE any feedback you have!
Blessings,
Venus
