“The tour was superb. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared a plethora of interesting information about the Prado and the works we viewed. I think it would be too overwhelming to take on this tour on your own. The guide met us in the square outside the museum, near the Goya statue, easy to spot with an IBE umbrella! The 90 minute tour was worth every penny!”
