Tour Reviews
Spectacular. The building and the exhibitions are impressive, but if you go out you cannot go back in.
Fantastic. I love the Goya’s paintings, and the truth is that the Guide managed to convey the full meaning of the works we saw. The visit is very good.
It was about two hours and was worthwhile. I booked just this because I wanted to study more about each one of the works and the guide was quite helpful.
Charming guide with jokes the whole time, so that it wasn’t a very serious or boring visit. Good detail on his part.
Interesting. I’m not especially art lover, but if you are in Madrid you have to see the Prado Museum. I must say that I was surprised by the visit, the explanations were very interesting and we were given a lot of information to understand pictures.
The Royal Palace is incredible, you can feel the history in every corner. The guide told us several details and anecdotes about the royal family and their history and some of the rooms were very interesting.
The time we spent in the palace ran short. Its worth the visit, especially because you get to see it without having to queue at the entrance.
They only let you see some of the rooms. The palaces size and history is amazing, but they only let you see some of the rooms.
The best palace in Western Europe. Its huge and has a lot of history and art. Its a shame they dont let you take pictures.
Amazing. The Royal Palace is incredible, much bigger than Versailles or Buckingham Palace. I didnt expect it to be so spectacular, especially its church.
Amazing. Its worth the guided tour because they show you the most important pieces in the museum and explain each paintings history.
The Prado Museum is better than the Reina Sofía museum. I went with my husband and we loved the Prado Museum, the Reina Sofía not so much.
