Great Private Tour of the Prado - Irina K was a fantastic guide. Very well informed, knowledgeable, and expertly navigated the museum. Having a private guide is worth it if you don’t want to be subjected to the larger groups. The Prado is an excellent museum, great curation of art from the Spanish masters and Irina did a great job of weaving storytelling and history around the works we were seeing. Highly recommend.

Work every cent - This tour *made* our - to the Prado. The depth of knowledge & genuine enthusiasm for the art in the Prado of our guide was exceptional, and the story he wove as he used the art to take us through Spanish history was riveting. This looks like a high $$, but you have come all this way to see the Prado- seeing it with an expert (a knowledgable, interesting storyteller of an expert) who brings it to life makes sense. We did have a couple of small technical glitches-and they were superb at sorting them out. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about this tour.

Amazing Prado Tour - I booked the Goya and Velasquez tour originally with Irina. We got so much more than that. She covered Spanish history in a way that was new to me, and I studied in Spain when I was in college. I cannot say enough about Irina and the tour. She was wonderful and made what could have been a very dry, boring experience for my college-aged son, something he will remember. If you can do one of these tours, at any of the Madrid museums, I would highly recommend them. They are well worth the money.

Amazing experience! - We always get tour guides in museums and this was our best experience yet! The kids (high school and college age) said they were sad when our tour was over! Mr. Satt was a fabulous guide. He asked us questions, told the stories behind the pieces, and was obviously passionate about art. We all would give it 5+ stars if possible. Can't recommend this high enough!

Very good Museo del Prado visit - Saw the key exhibits at Museo del Parado. Hernan is a guide with lots of experience and very knowledgeable about Velazquez, Goya and others. Learned a lot. Made the tour quite manageable with a short break in between. A must given the size of the museum.
