2 hr Prado Museum Tour with Nacho
I chose this 2 hr Prado museum tour ( most tours were only offering 1.5 hr tours) with a guide who uses headsets to hear them in this crowded museum. We had roughly 20-30 ppl on our tour. Nacho was our guide. He was knowledgeable in the art & art history which made the tour wonderful and interesting. At the end of the tour, you can go back while inside to visit the museum on your own. The headsets were a must have on this type of tour. Thank you Nacho.
Operator response
Dear Prasantha_B,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of the 2-hour Prado Museum tour with Nacho. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the extended duration of the tour, providing more time to explore the museum's incredible collection. It's great to know that Nacho's expertise in art and art history made the tour wonderful and interesting for you.
We're glad that the use of headsets enhanced your experience, allowing you to hear the guide clearly even in the crowded museum. The option to continue exploring the museum on your own after the tour is a fantastic opportunity to delve deeper into the exhibits.
Thank you for choosing our Prado Museum tour, and we hope to welcome you back for more enriching experiences in the future.
Best regards,

Must do! Skip the line private tour!
This tour was amazing! Our guide, Stefi, was so knowledgeable! You could tell she knew a lot about both art history and the museum. She made the tour interactive and engaging. We enjoyed every minute and I did not want it to end. It was 2 hours, but I wished it had been longer. My 2 children also said they really enjoyed the tour. I would absolutely recommend this tour and particularly, Stefi! She met us outside the Prado museum and while waiting to go through security gave us the history of the museum before jumping into the important works. It was such an outstanding tour!
