Expert Led Prado Tour with Admission Tickets

Led by PhD Art Historian Andrea; a fabulous intro to the star artworks with information valuable to the educated and newly initiated. American born Andrea delivered an interesting and engaging 3 hour tour of the highlights. I highly recommend this tour.

This Prado guided tour exceeded all our expectations because of the wonderful paintings we saw in for the first time and because of passionate guide Fabio. In your first visit to Prado it is easy to get confused and lost with all these famous paintings you heard about or saw in reproduction, but never in front of your eyes. We had a small group of 8 English speaking people from different countries. Our young guide Fabio had advanced degree in Spanish history and art (or something like this). He carefully chose the artists and paintings and the order to introduce them and was able to deliver his comments very clearly which is not easy in in very crowded Prado environment. You cannot see and absorb everything in half of day running around Prado, but following Fabio plan we spend significant time with paintings of Raphael, Titian, Bosch, Rubens, Durer, El Greco, Velazquez and Goya absorbing what we saw and listening to Fabio’s comments.

Ignacio from Leaf free tours was a brilliant guide - totally engaging. He knew his stuff which is always a good start but he offered so much more with humour and a range of presentation skills which brought Madrid and it’s story to life. Don’t hesitate - just grab a tour - you won’t be disappointed.
