Arantxa is a great tour guide! - Arantxa was an excellent tour guide through the Prado and Restaurant Botin. Her discussion of the paintings by Goya, El Greco and Velasquez were easy to understand and she brought the people and places and painters to life for us!

Perfect half day in Madrid - Cassie was probably the best guide I have ever had for a European tour experience of any type in any country. She was funny, engaging, and had an incredible depth of knowledge about the paintings we saw in El Prado. She even was able to make it interesting for a non-artistically inclined teenager, which is quite the challenge. Lunch at El Botín was delicious and quite filling. Can’t recommend this experience enough for a half day in Madrid.

Great day! - Our guide Arantxa was amazing! So knowledgeable and funny! She gave us so information and made it interesting as well. She knew so much about the history of the Prado and we got a private tour of the famed Botin restaurant before a wonderful lunch.

Must do. You won't be disappointed!! - Amazing!!! Our guide, Arantxa, was the best. She was super knowledgeable about the art in the Prado and had us all thoroughly engaged throughout the tour. Access to Restaurant Botin prior to opening for lunch to the public was invaluable to allow a tour of the restaurant. Food was incredible. The tour, Arantxa and food at Botin is easily one of our highlights of our stay in Madrid.

Great way to get into Boutins - Best way to get to eat at Boutins without a 2 year wait for reservations. Prada was hurried but that’s expected with a tour guide. Just get an idea of what you want to return to see longer.

The highlight of an amazing life changing trip! - First of all - Arantxa is the best tour guide I have ever had on any tour, in any city, ever, period. Her love of Madrid and passion for her Spanish culture is palpable throughout the whole tour, and she is an absolutely fascinating storyteller and conversationalist. My partner and I were already enchanted by the city, but our guided journey through the Prado then to Botin made us fall irrevocably in love. We can not wait to get back to Madrid, and when we do you can be sure that we are signing up for another tour with the amazing Arantxa.

Loved the tour guide! - Montse was a lovely tour guide and provided great insight into various paintings. She left us wanting more art. The food part of the tour was great as well but the tour guide made the experience.
