Nos la pasamos muy bien, muy amena la caminata, explicaciones claras, se siente muy privado ya que los grupos son muy pequeños

David was so knowledgeable of the history of the city and the art. Everything he shared was so interesting. I learned so much and left with such a great appreciation for the art and culture of Madrid and Spain. 10/10 would recommend this tour to everyone.

David was an excellent tour guide. He was flawless and knew his history and facts. One of the best city tours I have had. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

The Prado & the Royal Palace are not to be missed in Madrid. Our tour guide David wove in all the history to make this tour come alive. He shared so many facts that I did not know. You may think 1 1/2 hours are not enough in the Prado. David focused on the 3 most famous Spanish painters & linked their stories through history & their art. The Royal Palace is just speculated. Thank you for wonderful memories of Madrid.

Este tour fue increíble. Luis fue un buen guía porque nos explicó cosas con muchos detalles. Fue un tour más fácil para entender. ¡Recomiendo este tour mucho!

We had an absolutely fabulous tour with our guide, Luis! He was so kind and personable and engaging. It was a lot of information, but he made it all very interesting and accessible for all of us. Even our 12-year-old daughter enjoyed the tour! Would highly recommend this to see the main attractions of Madrid!

Ernesto was a wealth of knowledge and very passionate about the works he spoke about. We went with two family members who's abilities are challenged and he was very very accommodating and patient with them. In all my tours I've done, Ernesto is the exact type of person you want leading the group. He was kind, courteous and his energy was infectious. He answered all of our questions while still maintaining a sense of time while never feeling rushed. I would definitely do a tour with Ernesto again

We were unable to go into the Palace because of an official event but we were notified well in advance and given an option to cancel. I am so glad I did not as Ernesto was our guide in the museum and he was fabulous. Great incite on the painters and painting. The walk through the city was very enjoyable and fun.
Tripadvisor customer · Hope · Jun 15, 2025 Great
Ernesto was our guide and he was the best guide. He showed us all the local places along with Pardo museums. He knew lot of local things.

This tour was great because we just skipped the long line outside! Maria was so helpful in guiding us through time and history. She explained lots of the paintings and answered all the questions our group had. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience a deeper connection to these pieces of art!
