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

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.
