It’s a lot of time on your feet, but so worth it!! The Museum and the Palace need to be seen with an experienced tour guide that loves what they do and can provide the knowledge to share the most special facts and stories!

We felt rushed at El Prado. The guide was awesome, but we realized we would have preferred a more in depth guide at El Prado. The tour at the place was fine.

David was incredible! Super knowledgable about all things art and the history of Madrid. My sister only have 24 hours in Madrid and knew this tour was a must. This tour & David especially, equipped us with the knowledge to truly appreciate the city! <br /><br />Meeting was easy, speed was efficient but not rushed, and the price was a bargain for the experience you have!
