The guide was excellent, She explained everything and we had the opportunity to see in a different light the paintings that we were admiring. I really liked the museum, I love art and never miss an opportunity to go to a museum. The only thing is that the security guard was very rude to us. Nobody explained to us that we can not take pictures and there is not any sign in any place. One person of my group took one and the guard yielded at her in front of everybody and tell her that next time she was going to take her out of the museum, the moment was very embarrassed. We always respect the rules but she didn't know that we couldn't take pictures and the problem was the reaction of the guard. Usually in other museums they allow so that's why we didn't know. We went to see Sorolla collection and it was beautiful and they allow to take pictures.

The museum was great but I thought I had purchased the audio guide which would have been helpful for walking around the museum. Both my ticket and this review said I had the audio guide included but that wasn't the case. I spent over 20 minutes trying to access it. Very frustrating and I paid 20 euros ahead of time and just could have bought a ticket at the door since I didn't get the audio too!

The guide was great. I loved the impressive art of Spain which I studied in college many years ago. It was not too crowded. Just wonderful.

Tickets are very useful, but there were several of us so there was still a wait, especially as we had to pass through the security gates (photos are not allowed at the Prado museum ...).
