Alfonso was a fantastic guide. My husband and I aren't really "into" walking around museums, but felt we wanted to see the Prado. Alfonso did a 1 1/2-hour tour of the highlights / important pieces, which was perfect for us. We then walked to lunch at Botin, the oldest restaurant in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records. It was a great experience. We highly recommend this tour.
