Spectacular tour of the royal palace. - We booked the Royal Palace of Madrid and really loved the tour. Our guide, Ana, was very professional, knowledgeable, warm, and had a good sense of humor. I appreciated Ana’s depth of knowledge and how she made connections to the art, culture, and history of Spain. The personalized service and quickly getting us past the lines was wonderful.

Great Palace and waling tour - We booked combo walking tour and Palace tour. Had Alphonso as our guide. Morning walking tour we were the only ones so we had a private tour. Afternoon had a few people join us for Palace tour. Alphonso was a wealth of knowledge, very personable and a great tour guide. Highly recommended.

Amazing Spanish Royal Palace Tour - My husband and I are in Madrid, Spain for four days and decided to take a semi-private tour of the Royal Palace. We wound up being the only guests. Ana M. was our tour guide. She was incredible - very knowledgeable about the artifacts and history of Spain. She also went out of her way to make sure the tour was fun and interesting. The Royal Palace is beautiful - really amazing to see. We learned a lot and really enjoyed the visit. I’ve taken many tours over the years; this definitely ranks among the best.
