Prado Museum tours

The museum itself is very new and clean, with spacious corridors that make for a comfortable visit. Some exhibition rooms have chairs, so you can sit and rest if you get tired. The tour guide was very professional, arriving early to wait for us, and was very friendly and humorous. Their explanations were lively, often involving animated gestures and a loud voice (they even got told off by the museum staff for being too loud 😂), like telling a story to children, which was very entertaining. They were also very familiar with the museum's layout, ensuring no repeated routes. The entire guided tour lasted over two hours, and I myself stayed for another two hours (and still didn't see everything). If you want to explore thoroughly, you should plan for 3 to 5 hours, or even longer. After entering and clearing security, remember to pick up a tour brochure first; it will help you locate important works when you explore on your own.

It was a great experience overall. The booking online was easy. Later (closer to the date of the tour), I got an email and a text to confirm date, time and where to meet. I actually had to change the start time due to the timed ticket to the mueum and they were accomodating I wanted a Korean-speaking tour for my parents and it was better than I have imagined. Our tour guide Yoo Sun Lee was great. She was so knowledgeable and pacing of the tour was great. It wasn't too fast or slow and she gave us time to rest, ask questions. She also knew all the great spots for photo opportunities and helped take photos for my family. The description said tour was 2 hrs for this tour as well but it went well past that and I appreciated the tour guide for doing that. So it didn't feel like we were rushed at all I know that my family and I got so much more out of the visit because of her. I really want to thank her for that and would recommend her to my other family members and friends.

This was such a great way to see the city. Juan José was super friendly, very informative and made the tour great. It didn’t feel rushed and I got to see a lot of the city in such a short period.
