Private tour of Madrid’s Royal Palace and Prado Museum

Leticia Cruz Barrio (Leti) was our private give for the Madrid Royal Palace and the Prada Museum. She was exceptional. Her professionalism and knowledge of the topic areas was phenomenal. Also her ability to navigate through the entrances of these very popular and crowded venues was truly a thing of beauty as she used her excellent interpersonal skills and charisma to usher us to the front of the lines and into the exhibits. Her English is also excellent. I highly recommend Leti if you need an English speaking private guide and plan to visit the Royal Palace and the Prado Museum in Madrid. I promise you will be extremely pleased. Jim and Diana Fraser

Great experience

Ignacio was our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and kind. I was pregnant and he made sure to take plenty of time and even got me a wheelchair when I felt dizzy. If you are interested in art and history I would highly recommend this tour. Both the Prado Museum and the Royal Palace were beautiful!

fantastic tour with highly knowledgeable and engaging guide !

Ignacio was a fantastic and highly knowledgeable guide and also perfect for a family with smaller kids (6 and 9 years old) I feel like at the Prado he could have stopped at any painting and give es the full story and angle to it We will definitely try to repeat it next time we are in Madrid

Elena was wonderful!...

Elena was wonderful! Knowledgeable, personable, fun! We had a great day touring the palace and the Prado. She showed us other places as we walked around. She made suggestions of Spanish foods we could take home to our family. It could not have been better!
