Amazing Museum and Great Tour! - The museum is breathtaking - to see so many famous pieces under one roof is mindblowing. The guide and tour was great - my friend really enjoyed learning about the art history because she was unaware. I wish more artists were included in the tour, but understand there is a lot there and you can still see more on your own after the tour. All in all - this museum is a MUST for any and all art lovers!

Jose made this Prado tour exceptional - We did this tour yesterday with Jose and we’re so glad we did. Years ago we tried to do the Prado on our own and it is too overwhelming. Jose did a fantastic job of providing historical context to the period, various kings, conflicts and then explained how the paintings were created with the use of perspective, layers (for depth), and even gold and lapis for color. He was the best guide we’ve had for an art museum. This tour was well worth it and Jose made the experience exceptional. Highly recommend!

Perfect Prado Expérience - Amanda our guide was an amazing guide explaining the history of the painting and each artist she presented. Her expertise and explanation made the paintings come to life. I really enjoyed the tour and appreciate the art even more. The Museum is quite impressive and is easier to navigate with a tour guide.

Very informative - The knowledge of the guide was excellent. She wove a story through the ages that was engaging and information. She stayed calm with the slightly messy way the museum handles the entry and security and did exceptionally well. Highly recommended.

Lovely experience - Amanda was great! I loved the depth of discussion for each art piece that it was only an hour and a half with time to explore in our own afterwards. I learned a lot, and I have a greater appreciation for the art.

Informative Tour - Amanda shared her knowledge of the Prado museum and her love of the numerous works of art it contained. Very informative overview of the museum, but it would take a week to do it justice.

Two thumbs up - Our tour guide was very proficient and did great. I believe his name was Ishmail, probably did not spell his name even close. But he does deserve praise.

The guided tour was a success - We found it very interesting. An easy and comfortable way to start getting to know the Del Prado museum. Rubén, the guide, made a good selection of works that he explained to us in an entertaining way and within the context of the time of each of them. It didn't take long, rather we were left wanting more.
