My experience was excellent. The exhibition, the number of people, the order of the visit. The price is totally in line with what is offered.

We were able to get a handheld device with a ear plugs where we were able to identify paintings with numbers. Had to purchase from the museum for 5 euros a piece Which helped a lot.

It gave me a lot of confidence to be so well controlled. In the store there was a wide and beautiful selection of souvenirs. And, of course, the visit to the museum was the highlight for me - wonderful and incomparable treasures!

The designated meeting point was somewhat confusing and illogical, not in front of the museum but rather across the street. But the guide, Xavier/Javier, was friendly, funny, smart, patient and knowledgeable.

A Day at the Prado: A Tour with Helena This year, I had the pleasure of experiencing one of the best guided tours I’ve ever attended. Visiting the Prado Museum in Madrid is always a highlight, but having Helena as our guide took it to an entirely new level. Helena’s knowledge of the museum’s collection was impressive. She brought the works of Velázquez, Goya, and Bosch to life with stories that were both fascinating and engaging. Her ability to explain the nuances of each painting, from the political undertones of Las Meninas to the surreal details of The Garden of Earthly Delights, kept everyone hooked. But what set her apart was her entertaining style. Helena didn’t just recite facts; she made the history feel alive. Her humor and passion for the art were infectious, and she encouraged questions and discussions, making the experience interactive and fun. It wasn’t just a tour; it was a journey through history, culture, and art. If you’re planning to visit the Prado, I can’t recommend Helena enough. She turned what could have been an ordinary museum visit into the best cultural experience I’ve had this year.
