This tour is made only with small groups. It was prepared it in order for the visitor to enjoy a lot appreciating art and discovering the origin of the spanish painting collections. Everything starts to make sense (and becomes more exciting) as we get to know about the historical context and the connections among the different monarchs and artists. Let's visit El Prado!
Along this tour we will visit the largest and most important painting gallery around the world, El Prado Museum, approaching the most outstanding artists and masterpieces in it. First of all, we will get to know a little bit about both the origin of the building and the origin of the collections. Then, following a chronological order, we will go through the centuries between XV and XIX, placing special emphasis on those artists who worked in Spain or worked for the Spanish Monarchy; from Tiziano, passing through El Greco, Rubens or Velázquez (between others), upto Goya. As plastic artist and art restorer that I am, I've prepared this tour in order for the visitor to dive into the great treasure that El Prado museum houses, understanding the different historic contexts and the relation between one artwork and the other, learning a lot and having fun at the same time.

There were a total of 7 people in our group and we each had a device to clearly hear every word of our expert guide. PRADO is huge and I could not have enjoyed it without this tour. Each one in our party of 4 thought our guide was excellent.
Delfi was fabulous! She is so knowledgeable with a great delivery. I totally recommend her tour. All the highlights were included.
Delfi knows her art and presented it in a very cohesive and interesting manner. She was engaging and very professional.
Delfi was a very knowledgeable guide but also made our visit fun! It was great to have such a small group - just 3 of us. Would highly recommend this tour for any art lover of those just wanting an introduction to these fabulous paintings.
This was a great experience. Very different than just walking around and looking at the paintings We were given a very detailed education about the artists lives and details on most of the paintings. A lot of information not always accessible to all. Delfi our guide was awesome
This was one of the best tour we took in Madrid. Delphi was very knowledgeable on the museum and guided us through the important pieces with pertinent facts in a delightful way. Highly recommend this 3 hour tour.
Delfi’s tour was outstanding! We loved every minute. Her knowledge of the Masterpieces of the Prado is very extensive, and her communication skills were great. (We took the tour in English ). Her audio technology was first-class—we had no problems at all. We learned so much more than we would have on our own. We could not have had a better guide. Highly recommend!
The best. Knowledgeable, fluent, organized, accurate. Don’t hesitate, Hard to imagine a better tour.
Delfi was an outstanding tour guide. We did a 3-hour tour of El Prado. Delfi provided valuable insight into the artworks we were seeing and provided historical context for the whole museum as well as for individual artworks. She was friendly, had excellent English and our whole experience was thoroughly enjoyable. The earpiece in the ear made it easy to hear her even when there were many people viewing. I highly recommended Delfi's tour. I have greater appreciation for art after hearing her explanations. After doing the morning tour we stayed on for the rest of the day, revisiting a few pieces she had shown us as well as seeing some she recommended we do on our own.
Our visit to the Prado museum went extraordinarily well. This was in large measure due to the wonderful experience of our tour guide, Delfina Menendez. She was outstanding. Not only was she exceptionally well informed about the contents of the Prado, but she was most helpful to us as older members of the tour group.. her personality and knowledge when put together made this one of our most exceptionally positive experiences of our visit to Spain.
