Outstanding and well organized tour. Our tour guide David was professional, knowledgeable of the history, friendly and provided clear explanations. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Madrid for the first time.

We had a great time with Sean our tour guide. He was very knowledgable and answered so many questions from the group. The churros were a good break in between. The guided tour of the Prado was exceptional, it gave us a fresh perspective and a newfound appreciation for Spanish art and history.

Our guide Ana was great. We love the story and background explanations to the paintings and such. The stop for chocolate and churro was wonderful.

Our tour guide was excellent. He knew his subject and conveyed the history of the Palace and the Prado in a way everyone could understand. He also had a great sense of humor.

Both guides Ana and Cassie were excellent. My only complaint was in the Prada museum we did not have headsets and I couldn’t hear and understand Cassie most of the time

We were asked to come 15 min earlier to redeem the tickets.. which was not necessary... and while the guide came later than the start of the tour. She was very nice, but was not engaging and did not have much to say about the Royal Palace... we spent around 1h in café eating churros, in my opinion wasting time which we could have spend in Prado. Also there the approach of a guide was strange ..focusing on first two pieces for 20 min and then chosen ones, not really elaborating on the collections, main pieces, etc. And skip the line ticket is useless if you have 50 tours with skip the line...

This trip does mot make sense. It should be either the palace or Prado. Both, with an hour break for churros do not make sense as eventually you do not really se as much as you could. Moreover, the information given is rather limited, especially in the Palace and while walking. If you want to combine both, skip the churros and dedicate more time to some sort of presentations in the palace and Prado. The only thing I remember is that Charles III had a big nose. Not worth 90 Euros.

We did not make it to the correct meeting point for the tour and we were there 30 minutes early....we had the address on the voucher that we put on our GPS(phone) and we were at the wrong location....we reached out to tour company but we could not find where the Queen Isabella statue was....we gave up. On our way back to the hotel we found the statue....just 600 ft from our hotel....can't blame anyone....we were there early at the address on the voucher. The GPS may have been messed up as many roads were closed due to the Madrid Marathon
