Discover masterpieces of art on a skip-the-line guided tour of the Prado Museum and explore the galleries of Spain's national art museum, located in the museum district of central Madrid. Widely considered to have one of the world's finest collections of European art from the 12th to the early 20th century, the Prado Museum also boasts the single best collection of Spanish art in the world. Founded as a museum of paintings and sculptures in 1819, it was enlarged by the addition of short pavilions at the rear of the magnificent building between 1900 and 1960. See masterpieces by Francisco Goya, Hieronymus Bosch and Peter Paul Rubens, along with acclaimed paintings by El Greco, Titian and Diego Velázquez.

Aurora was the best tour guide ever! She showed such a genuine passion for the art on display and taught us the history of each piece while making us laugh the whole way! We could not recommend this enough - you have to book! If you see this Aurora - we hope you enjoy Nicaragua!

The Prado Museum Guided Tour conducted by Joaquin is amazing. He is very informative and clear in his introduction of the pieces and highlights of the museum. The tour was done in a fairly good speed over the 1.5hours without being too abrupt or draggy. The museum hosts over 2000 pieces of paintings, I will highly recommend that anyone who wish to visit, to go with a guided tour for an elevated experience.

We were running late due to the crazy rainy weather, our sweet tour guide Benito waited for us, we were so grateful! He is very knowledgeable about the pieces of art, and he shared with us information and history that we really appreciated. He went through the museum at a good speed, and allowed for questions to be asked. We loved our time in the Prado museum, Thank you SO MUCH Benny!!!
