This is a lengthy tour, but goes at a great pace so you don’t feel rushed. Also plenty of chances to take break and a snack break in between the two destinations.
Really knowledgeable tour guide and very engaging and unpretentious. Gave us the big ticket items info and offered her favorites. Even on the walk from the Royal Palace to the Prado Museum, she was able to give us more history lessons which makes the walk come to life.
The tour was worth it. You get to learn all the history behind each room. Excellent tour guide, she knew her palace and history.
The visit was very good. Juan Antonio was our guide and made the day not only interesting but also enjoyable.
Very good, informative tour! Lots of interesting details , two mast visit sites in Madrid, very well worth it! Tour is well organized. Thank you!
The monumental tour of Madrid, with Naturanda and the guide Angel, has turned out to be one of the best visits I have ever made. We enjoyed ourselves immensely, and the feeling among the entire group was unanimous, as I was able to confirm. Despite the fact that there are three substantial activities (almost 6 hours of tour!), you do not feel tired at any moment because Ángel manages the timing exceptionally well. In a mix of passion, knowledge, good disposition, and an extraordinary and peculiar sense of humor (you can really tell he is from La Mancha!). I will not hesitate to repeat with this company if I return to Madrid. And I will do it directly on their website. Congratulations!
It was a wonderful tour of key highlights of Madrid. Marta was excellent! We appreciated her extensive knowledge, accessible historical context and “gossip” about the royals. She navigated the changing of the guard at the palace well. The city walking tour was nicely paced and love her highlights of the Prado museum!
Ruben was great tour guide! My family and I really enjoyed the tour of the Royal Palace, walking tour of the city and Prado Museum. Ruben was extremely knowledgeable of each site and gave us great tips about the city itself. Where good walking shoes!
Our tours of the Royal Palace and the Prado Museum with Marta were absolutely exceptional and among the highlights of our entire visit to Madrid. Marta is an outstanding guide whose depth of knowledge, passion for history and art, and remarkable storytelling abilities transformed both tours into unforgettable experiences. What sets Marta apart is her ability to blend fascinating historical facts, cultural context, wit, and humor into a seamless and engaging presentation. She shared countless insights and details that we never would have discovered on our own, giving us a much deeper appreciation for these magnificent landmarks and their significance. Every stop felt meaningful because of the perspective and expertise she brought to the experience. Marta also has a wonderful ability to connect with her guests. During the walking tour, she was attentive to everyone's pace and comfort, regularly checking in to ensure we had opportunities for breaks and hydration. Her professionalism and genuine care made the experience even more enjoyable. The combination of Marta's encyclopedic knowledge, engaging personality, and excellent communication skills made these tours truly special. We left feeling educated, entertained, and inspired. Without question, these tours were among the most memorable experiences of our three days in Madrid. We enthusiastically and wholeheartedly recommend these tours. And if you're lucky enough to have Marta as your guide, you can expect an experience that far exceeds expectations.
A good and pleasant experience; we did the tour with the guide Martha, who provided excellent service.
