Our guide was very informative. She got us through the line quickly, and we learn a lot about the history of the palace. We highly recommend the tour.
Hernan was our guide and he was excellent. I have pulmonary fibrosis so he insisted on pushing me in a wheelchair (I have difficulty with stairs so we were able to take the elevator). Hernan was wonderful at pointing out details that I might have missed and arranging our position so that I got great photos. He was very knowledgeable about the history, the art (look at Tiepolo’s airy clouds for example), and the decoration. To top it off, he refused a much merited tip. Hernan was just the best guide we could have had for the Royal Palace. I have to mention that I’ve visited a lot of Palaces including Versailles and this palace is definitely worth a visit.
Marta was the best Tour Guide we have met in Spain. She took us on a 5 x hour walking tour of The Royal Palace & El Prado Art Gallery. She was incredibly knowledgeable, informative and very personable. She managed to look after 23 people & to engage with everyone for the entire time. A truly memorable day, thank you Marta!
Irina was lovely very informative!!! Will definitely tell my friends about her if going to Madrid. She was very organized with pictures for us to see.
Irina was an excellent guide & very informative. I did pay for a private tour for myself & my daughter, however we were joined by another couple. It was fine, but not a private tour which is what I paid for!
Irina is a charming guide for the Royal Palace. She is a trained European historian and her knowledge is indispensable for the understanding of the convoluted history of the Bourbon Hapsburgs who lived here for many years. The palace is the largest in Europe, but you will see only a fraction of its rooms, all of which are extravagantly splendid. The tour was somewhat pricey for the two of us, and I suspect we could have done quite well with the iPad version alone, but having a personal guide answer our questions was extremely helpful
As on all previous occasions, when we have visited the Prado Museum with this agency, the visit to the Royal Palace was excellent. Whenever we travel to Madrid, we book a visit somewhere in the city with The team of Madrid Museum Tours. They never let us down.
