Borja is the best tour guide ever! - My dad organized a tour for the Prado Museum for my birthday and it was the best surprise ever! Borja shared with us very good and interesting information about the history of the museum and some of its best paints in the museum. His information is useful to understand the paints, their details and their context. Borja's humor is amazing! Really grateful for the experience.

5 STARS NOT ENOUGH!! - Why the 5 STAR limit...?!? Our Guide, Elena, deserves 5 Stars & many, many more!!! Smart, informative, humorous, w/ excellent communication skills even in her second language, English, Elena took us on an exceptional tour of Art & History, never failing to explain how a particular piece fit into the greater World of Art as well as the greater World of five centuries of History!! By focusing on Spanish luminaries Velazquez, Goya & El Greco in the Prado, & Picasso in the Sofia, Elena not only did justice to our enlightenment, she also shined a very warm & engaging light on her beloved Country. A tour, & a Guide, not to be missed!
