We know as a matter of fact that worldwide companies choose the Spanish capital city for their annual events. In this sense, corporations larger than 100 employees observe our town with interest because of its flight connections, accommodation opportunities and cultural things to do. That’s the reason for us to become agents for incentive travel to Madrid.
While the majority of our customers come to us once they’ve booked their flights and hotels, they put attention into our alternative approach of things to do around the central districts, because of our expertise on the field.
Available experiences for an incentive travel in Madrid?
Whether you’re organizing an incentive travel in Madrid for senior or junior staff members, the truth is that offering off the beaten path experiences may grant them the opportunity for an alternative city discovery. Have you ever heard of the term “whow activities”?
We use that catchy expression to refer to a moment in which travelers, not tourists, get involved with a local resident. Guests will hear insider information that they may not get to know otherwise. What are the problems faced by Spaniards and madrileños? More precisely, well use data and facts in order to relate the guided visit within the given cultural/historical context.
FYI, English and Spanish language are toe most common requested services. However, French and German are also available for visitors. Cooltourspain team members have fine arts, education, tourism, art history and graffiti backgrounds.
Graffiti workshops during the main corporate event
Taking into consideration that we belong to the graffiti community, we teamed up with other street art artists who share our same interests. That’s to say, painting with other people. No matter if they’re friends, or visitors participating at an incentive travel in Madrid. We love using spray paint!
Our graffiti workshops feature two workstations:
- First of them, a collaborative part in which guests will receive the opportunity to paint a “wall”. This surface may have been built with cardboard boxes, or with a cotton canvas.
- Secondly, a part in which every individual will get hands on and spray paint over a tote bag. Moreover, the brand’s logo will be used as the final layer to add the entrepreneur creative idea.
Street art tours & the incentive travel in Madrid. The best comfort to discover the city alternatively.
8 years ago we started Cooltourspain with a simple goal. Taking guests away from the most touristic circuits. As time passed by, we do not only target couples, families and solo travelers, but we also approach national MICE and DMC agencies that are already working on the incentive travel in Madrid’s market.
They observe a new trend within the industry. After a deep analysis, these urban art tours which master on murals, tags and ephemeral pieces are rocking it among final clients.
While Lavapies appears to be the neighborhood that counts with the most colorful walls, Malasaña district offers its visitors a bohemian and hipster perspective. Anyhow, both of them still feature a classic atmosphere with squares filled up with tapas bars and local community projects.
Guided visits at the major touristic highlights
Despite the fact that alternative choices are now sold on platforms such as Airbnb, Get your guide or Viator (TripAdvisor), the incentive travel in Madrid will always depend on the most classic experiences. Furthermore, these are the best sellers:
- El Prado, Reina Sofía and Thyssen museums.
- Royal Palace and the brand new opened Galería de las colecciones reales.
- Retiro Park, Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol.
The truth is that both experiences might be easily combined, creating a great journey for Madrid’s visitors. What about walking around the city center during the morning, including a museum, and leaving the non-touristy parts for the afternoon? According to our opinion, that could easily work.
Where would we recommend you host an event/congress for your incentive travel in Madrid?

Espacio Rastro Madrid, centrally located
First of them is easily accesible by public transport. You may get to Calle San Cayetano, 3 by metro lines 1 or 5. Nearest metro stations are Tirso de Molina and La Latina. From our point of view, there could be no more affordable and centrally location for your incentive travel in Madrid than this.
Espacio Rastro could host seal groups of 25 people, as well as groups as large as 300 participants. It features small rooms and large warehouse which even hosts flea markets over the weekend.

Second option for an incentive travel in Madrid would be placing a reservation at the hotel where you’re staying. I’ll could even benefit your groups commuting, as you would not need to move a group of people from place to place.
If you are interested in our street art workshops, hotel managers would be happy to hear that regular spay might be substituted by water based products which would be easily removable in case participants don’t follow our instructions.

- Use globes, masks and overalls if you require them.
- Follow instructors’ directions.
- Do not leave your painted tote bags, but wherever you’re told to do so.
95 Art Gallery, better observing it than checking it through our words
Despite the fact of being the suburbs, 95 Art Gallery has turned in less than a year of work, os probably the most underground artistic spot in town. Moreover a graffiti related spor for any incentive travel organizers in Madrid, who are looking into offering guests a visual impact.

The sustainable and socially responsible approach that we feature during the services provided to Management companies, make our incentive travel in Madrid unique. Have you ever heard about the legacy project we implement on the local communities where we walk paint?
