Great French tour - We had a visit of almost an hour with a guide in French who showed us the places, but also who explained to us what a bullfight was. Our guide was named Hugo, it was his first visit. It really was perfect. He gave us good explanations, he answered questions, he was very professional. For the first time, he would never have told us and he would never have known. Congratulations…. It was perfect .

Fantastic insight into bullfighting traditions - Esteban was a fantastic guide. He clearly explained the history and traditions of bullfighting and gave us a useful insight into the art of bullfighting prior to us seeing a bullfight that night.

Great way to learn about this tradition - We had an absolute blast on this tour! So much better than we anticipated . We felt this tour educated us regarding this tradition. We felt that this tour enabled us to respect this bullfighting custom while also respecting ours and not seeing animal cruelty Our guide Guillermo was extremely passionate about educating us about the art of bullfighting. Not only was he passionate but he was extremely knowledgeable, respectful and funny. We were so blessed to have him as our guide . We had pretty much full access to the arena including the stadium from different levels, gates where matadors/ bulls enter and leave , including injured matadors. We saw where the bulls and horses are kept and where VIP’s sit and are interviewed by the media. We learned about customs and superstitions We got to be matadors on the VR and hold a real capes and sword We learned about all different levels of involvement in this art we highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Madrid to get an understanding of this fascinating tradition. Don’t bother with an audio tour this is 1000 times better

Visit with French students - The guided tour was very interesting and fun. The guide Carlos Esteban was very kind and patient with clear explanations. What the students appreciated most was doing a virtual bullfight. Complete and recommended visit.

A must-see - I took a group of 18 teenagers to Las Ventas as part of a school trip. The tour is so worthwhile and makes such a difference having an in person tour guide than audio. Carlos was great with the pupils, super informative and took his time to really ensure all questions were answered and we left feeling we had learned something. His English is excellent. Great tour, we will definitely return!

Las Ventas Bullring experience - Our guide Eva was fabulous, she provided so much information on the day, gave us a real insight into the lives of the Matadors and the bulls. The whole thing is so much more than we had believed beforehand. Although we never experienced a bull spectacular we feel we are more educated in the process. We highly recommend Eva as a guide and also the whole Las Ventas experience. Value for money an and an hour well spent!
