For the real deal, consider coming to Aranjuez from Madrid in the Tren de la Fresa (Strawberry Train). The train is a restored steam engine that runs on the original rail line connecting Madrid to Aranjuez. It was once used to ship Aranjuez’ famous strawberries. It’s a short, fun trip, with waiters dressed in period garb serving up strawberries all the way to Aranjuez, where a bus transfers you to the historical part of town for a guided tour of the Palacio Real, Jardín del Principe and the Museo de Falúas. The train runs on specific days during the summer months from April to July, departing from Atocha station in Madrid at 10 am and returning from the Aranjuez station at 6 pm.
