Las Ventas Madrid Bullring & Bullfighting Museum With Audioguide

Such so worthy experience going to Las Ventas, we had self guided tour, plus lots to do and see. We would recommend it.

Very disappointed, bought a ticket for a tour of the bull ring and museum only to turn up and find out that the bull ring was closed for a private event. So we could only visit the museum which only took 10 minutes to walk through. If they knew this was the case they shouldn’t have allowed ppl to buy tickets and marked it unavailable. We spent a fortune to get there. However we did get a refund no problem I just wish they had said it was closed from the beginning.

Clara was the greatest guide ever. She took us around and answered all our questions and my entire basketball team and I had a phenomenal time and laughed a lot. We learned so much and she was truly incredibly kind.

Clara was an amazing guide! She answered all of our questions and was super enthusiastic :) would love to come back and watch a show

Excellent tour and very good value. We learned alot about bullfighting and got to see everything up close.

A fantastic experience which is well worth a visit. The audio guide is available in a range of languages and it is really helpful and interesting. The museum is a lovely building which in itself is beautiful. There is a lovey 3D VR headset you can use to visualise the environment and you are able to sit in the stands of the bull ring. There is also a great photo opportunity which is not mandatory to purchase but if you do it was only €10 which was not too expensive. It is definitely worth a visit even if like me the idea of watching a bull fight is not for you.

We didn't get to go because you told sold us a ticket to an event that was closed. Even when asked about it later you guys didn't know it was closed. Still didn't get my money back

Very interesting tour, good detail but not too complicated. A real eye opener. A must do on any visit to Madrid

Very good audio tour in selected language. Unlimited time to complete as you wander around the Bull Ring. Lots of construction caused sections to be inaccessible and metal grinders interfered a bit with audio. Museum at end was fascinating and not time limited.

It was a very informative and interesting audio guided tour. Helped you understand the culture and experience really helps you get a feel and better understanding for bullfighting.

We loved it! Being able to walk through every part of the bullring with our audio tour was great. We really loved the 3D opportunity to be able to see what it is like to fight a bull in the ring- very clever.

I took a school group to the bullring and we had a guided tour from Esteban. He was excellent, very knowledgable and great with the students. It made the visit much more interesting and everyone really enjoyed it. I would highly recommend the guided tour. Superb!

Very informative with audio guide. Well marked areas to describe events. Lovely tour with helpful guides and lovely museum

learning history of Bullfighting & being on ground level of arena. Enjoyed how President awards ears & tail trophies

Great self guided audio tour. Great ticket price. Easy to do in an hour and super easy to access from the Metro station….right outside the stop :). Lots of fun photo opportunities. A perfect way to appreciate more of Spanish culture, without attending an actual bullfight. Ole!

Easy to get to from the Metro with interesting history. The tour includes audio to use at your own pace.

Absolutely one of our best visits in Spain. History and understanding turned us from slightly antagonistic to wanting to watch a proper bullfight. Excellent experience from start to finish

The tour is just long enough as it use to be. The audioguide tells you a clear story about the bullfighting. Only the text at the viator website is a bit misleading: it says that the visit to the museum is included. But the museum is free: you don't need a ticket. Besides: the museum was closed for a couple of months becausenof restauration.

Great choice!! Fun for all ages. Engaging activities. Self guided audio tour in our language with headphones for each individual. Had fun AND learned a lot about this sacred bull ceremony.

Outstanding Tour, totally worth the price. Absolutely recommended to visit if you are in Madrid. Do only buy tickets from the counter

We had a great time visiting this Bullfighting Museum! We would love to come back for the actual bullfighting event.

Disappointed the museum was closed so just saw the ring there was a large group of students in front of us so made difficult to see things

We had a fantastic guided tour of Las Ventas with a group of Secondary School pupils from Glasgow. Guillermo, our guide, was knowledgeable and spoke great English. It was the highlight of our trip to Madrid for many of our pupils.

Really interesting tour of the Bull Ring with Jaime who bought the tour to life explaining history & culture of the life of the bull and Matadors! Totally fascinating Jaime answered all our questions and welcomed discussion and good humour. I felt a bit dubious about going to the Bull Ring but really enjoyed it. Can recommend this tour to all who are interested in Spanish culture & history.

Great museum to pass a few hours. It's an audio tour around the bullring and you can take some fun, interactive pictures after the visit

The audio tour was done very well. Beautiful arena with an interesting history. The interactive part of the tour with Photo Booth and virtual reality was very enjoyable. We had a great time.

Amazing history lesson about bullfighting…so glad we went! The simulator was fun, but maybe wipe the head viewer off between people??

The staff were great, the architecture was interesting and being able to enter the actual bull ring was great.

The Audio guide was comprehensive in all things regarding bullfighting from the fighters, the venue, the bulls and the many people who respectfully earn a living from it or benefit such as the poor who are fed. It even had a Wii app so you could be a matador with the cape. Doing this prior to attending the bullfight itself is a must to understand and appreciate the process and the traditions of it. I have no problem with bull fighting. It is a dangerous sport, the beast does not suffer and 1000s make a living from it.

Really interesting place to visit with good commentary throughout. Walk at your own pace. Definitely worth a visit. Viator are cheaper than the venue.

Learning the history was amazing and seeing the ring was so beautiful. Self guided tour was perfect.

Fun outing with lots of history, statistics and photo ops sprinkled in.. really enjoyed this tour! Highly recommend

This self guided audio tour was excellent, and we took the full 90 minutes to explore and take lots of photos. It was great that they were preparing for upcoming bullfights as there was some activity around the arena. We are not typically blood sport fans but the respect for the bulls and matadors comes through equally and inspired us to book tickets for a bullfight. The museum is all about the matadors and we skipped a bit as we don’t know them but still interesting.

This trip was fabulous. Had been to many actual bullfights but never done this tour. The history , the displays , the interactive parts were very informative . Being able to walk out into the arena was so exciting . I would recommend this tour as a must do in Madrid ! Well done Viator !!

A wonderful building steeped in history and still being used today for the nations tradition of bullfighting. The tour gives you a good insight into the behind scene of bullfighting. Definitely recommend the tour with audio to get the full history.

A great experience to see the bullring and museum. Audio-guide available in English providing some great detail to the workings and history of the building & bull fights. Plenty to see, able to walk around the stalls, the ring itself and the functional areas, finishing in the museum, which had some great artefacts. Staff were friendly &helpful and spoke English. Worth a visit.

Excellent tour of the bullring! We learned so much about the history, cultural and artistic significance, and logistics of the sport. You can show up anytime during opening hours and tour the facility with your audio guide; so it’s very flexible. We highly recommend for anyone in Madrid!

Thge tour was extremely informative. The audio was perfect for all languages. For the price this was a great bargain.

Fun experience. Audio guided tour that was very informative. Would have enjoyed a live tour so we could ask questions. But this was well organized and interesting.

Loved all especially the museum. It was wonderful to see sll the different bullfighter clothes, trajes de luces and “capotes”

I liked the virtual reality experience it was so rewarding to feel what the matador risks and to know that I can fight a bull even virtually. The only downside is that the virtual reality game should be longer. I enjoyed the rewarding training I received from the trainer who was patient and encouraging. The photo of me being a matador fighting s bull, that I received was the good surprise.

This tour was a lot of fun, and very interesting. There was more to see and do than we expected. We actually did a 3D virtual matador sequence with goggles, with a bull in the bullring! It was so realistic. We also got our photos taken, and our heads put on the bodies of matadors. It looked so real our friends thought we were really in the ring! This is a self-guided audio tour, which worked well. The audio portion made it easy to tour the museum and bullring, in a step-by-step process. We learned a great deal about the history of bullfighting, and the impact this has had on the Spanish culture. The entire tour was fascinating.

Arrived for 10 to be told that it's actually not opening till 11. Kept being sent to different places to try and exchange my viator voucher. When I eventually got into the place it was great, such a good place to see. However as I was taking photos in the arena someone turned the sprinkler on and absolutely soaked my drenching my phone. No Apology or anything. At the end I was rushed out as they obviously has some event on.

Great way to learn about the history of bullfighting without having to actually go to one! Self guided and at your own pace. Definitely recommend.

Very informative tour with audio of this impressive stadium and Museum. The staff are very friendly and helpful and even recommended an excellent restaurant nearby (Cesar Las Ventas). Well worth a visit even if you aren't a fan of bullfighting.

Historically important but not ok to the standards of the 21st century. Of course we knew that it is a bullfighting arena but I hoped that the tour would somehow include part of the controversy of the cruelty the animals have to suffer. Unfortunately this was not the case, the tour totally ignored the suffering and did nothing but glorify the Matadors. The arena as worth a visit, the buildings architecture is impressive, but I highly recommend not to waste your money on the tour.

This was a great and informative tour of a beautiful bullfighting arena. The virtual reality game was a welcome added segment of the tour. The tour finished in the museum to complete all unanswered questions

the show was amazing, full to capacity, everyone on there feet screaming OLE, it was phenomenal, very orderly, when buying tickets ensure you have tickets to see the bullfight not only the guided tour.

We really wanted to be fully imersed in the cultur while visiting Spain. We would have loved to see an actual bullfight , but they are on Sundays & we were due in another town by the weekend. We toured the bullring & enjoyed the self-guided walking tour.
