Santander 24-Hour Hop-On Hop-Off + Train

In the historic port city of Santander, you’re never far from a stunning coastal view. Sit back and soak it all in from the top deck of one of our comfortable, convenient open-top buses.
Hop off to explore the majestic Gothic Cathedral, home to ancient silver relics - including the actual skulls of Santander’s patron saints. Wander over to the lively, flower-lined Paseo de Pereda for a relaxing stroll and a refreshing gelato. Nearby, the eye-catching, modern Centro Botín awaits - a cultural hotspot where you can take in world-class art and enjoy sweeping views from its rooftop platforms across the beautiful bay.
If youre ready for the beach, then jump back on and head to Playa del Sardinero, where golden sands and crystal-clear waters beckon. Don’t let the name fool you - there’s nothing fishy about this beloved surf spot. Stroll the promenade, sample fresh seafood, and sip a cold local cerveza as the sun sets over the Atlantic waves.
Want to go further? Our breezy buses will take you to the tranquil Parque de Mataleñas and the dramatic Faro de Cabo Mayor. Ensure you bring your camera. As you gaze out over the Bay of Biscay and into the vast Atlantic, you’ll feel like you’ve reached the edge of the world.
Your ticket also includes a ride on the charming red tourist train, which offers a scenic, guided journey through the stunning Magdalena Peninsula. Sit back and enjoy the views as the train carries you along the rugged coastline, all the way to the iconic Palacio de la Magdalena - once the summer residence of the Spanish royal family.
The train saves you the uphill walk, and there’s plenty of time to hop off, explore, and take in the sights. It’s the ideal way to discover one of Santander’s most picturesque spots.
To round out your Santander adventure, your ticket also grants you entry to the Centro Botín - the city’s striking modern art museum. Set on the waterfront, this architectural gem is clad in over 280,000 ceramic tiles, giving it a bold, futuristic look. Inside, you’ll be treated to panoramic views of the bay and an outstanding collection of international contemporary art. With regularly changing exhibitions and a vibrant programme of cultural events, it’s the kind of place you’ll want to return to again and again. So what are you waiting for?
