To start, our guide Christina was lovely and in no way does this review reflect upon her. The booking indicated we would be met by the guide at Barcelona station. No, tickets were sent for the train. Time indicated started at 7am - tickets were for 8:10 train. Seats for 2 were not together, nearby, but still.... This was entirely a walking tour - if you take it, be prepared to walk A LOT! Had to wait in line to get into museum - there was no indication this was 'skip the line' tour but still, spent quite a bit of time waiting to get in. There was no time to independently view any of the art. Walking then with no time to stop until ending at the 'palace' then returned to train station alone. Summary: just by tix to the museum if that's what you want to see, get your own train tix and go at your own pace.

Our day trip to Madrid was nothing short of amazing, with a great tour guide. Natalia was very easy going and knowledgeable about the city. It was cool how much info she had on the paintings at the prado museum. This agency also made it easy to get to and from Madrid via speed train. Highly recommended this trip.

We had a terrible time connecting with the tour. The instructions leaving from Barcelona were not clear. We nearly missed the whole tour. Once we arrived in Madrid, things went more smoothly. Virginia Leineweber

Majed was a fantastic tour guide and he gave us some excellent information on the artists inside the Prado Museum. He really guided us around the city and shown us the highlights. It was fantastic to see the Prado and all that Madrid has to offer.
