• Tourist Tickets.

In Madrid most of the major tourism destinations are located in walk-able distances, you don't need to use public transportation that often. If you stay only for a few days, 10-Journey Ticket is useful especially because one ticket can be shared with more than one person. For example, when entering subway gates, one person go through first and hand over the ticket to the next person.

• Single Ticket : 1.5~2 EUR
• 10-Journey Ticket : 2.5+12.2=14.7 EUR (< 9x1.5=13.5)
