The tracks are currently unified and are suitable for kids aged four to ten. Watch out for the curves!

Our Tiovivo is a classic for families and, also, is the jewel of the Parque de Atracciones de Madrid's crown. It dates back to 1927, being the oldest of our attractions. It is worth visiting as it is handmade by wood craftsmen and it is an authentic work of art.

Enjoy with your kids our historical carousel, of great artistic value and unmeasurable beauty. You will also find it as La Pérgola. We have restored the damage suffered throughout the years in all the horses and repainted the figurines, keeping the years away from denting the beauty of this ride, which is accompanied by melodies of the last century. Do not miss the opportunity to travel back to the early XX century!

They will even be able to see Tarzan itself!

In the Simulador Virtual the whole family will attend a projection in which each member will be the main character of the movie.
