Our guide, Alfonso, was extremely knowledgeable and was able to translate his deep understanding of art to us with an educational approach. The best part was getting to see in person several Picasso works of art and also to understand how art evolved through the centuries. We did not go to the Palace as they changed their rules on private tour start times but we switched and went to the Reina Sofia museum for Picasso's work. We definitely recommend this tour!

Jose was clearly an art history expert. The Prada experience would not be nearly as good without an experienced tour guide explaining the art work and relating it to the specific time periods. We had to substitute the Sophia Reina museum for the royal palace due to the holiday and changes in the tour requirements for the palace. Outside of that, it was an outstanding day.

We had an outstanding tour today with Eva. She took us to the Royal Palace and The Prado Museum. She was so knowledgeable about history and the artists who have works in the museum. After our tour, she made a reservation for my husband and I to go to lunch at a wonderful restaurant nearby. We had a lovely day. Thank you so much!

Wonderful day, wonderful tour guide, highly recommended. Maria was an excellent, well informed tour guide providing excellent insights and historical facts of the Royal Palace and the works of art at Prado Museum. The Palace is quite an impressive work of architecture and historical significance. The Prado Museum is probably a day trip in itself but you get the highlights in this trip.

I highly recommend this private tour. The tour guide Mr. Florin, was awesome. He was very nice and has very good photography skills. He took us the most beautiful palace and Prado museum. The guided us for local shopping. The only thing was he didn’t took us back to hotel. Asked us to take a Taxi and go to hotel.
