We had an excellent tour with Rosita from Babylon Tours. She took us through all of the primary pieces that most people come to see. My family, which included my husband, my mother and two teenagers all really enjoyed hearing her perspective. Rosita is engaging, funny, and very knowledgeable.
We had a fabulous time learning so much about Spanish History and art with Pablo. We would 100% recommend this tour and remind you to ask for Pablo. He was funny, super knowledgeable about the art and very much enhanced our experience. His explanations and interpretations and ability to get us to see more in each work of art were amazing. We loved it. There is so much to see and having someone point you in the right direction made it worthwhile and memorable! Thank you Pablo!!
Jake was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable. Jake showed us the must see pieces that others may have missed. Jake was so pleasant and accommodating- ensuring we could take breaks, as needed. I would highly recommend Jake for any tours! Izzy and Barry.

Rosita was incredibly knowledgeable. She made visiting The Prado museum manageable. She guided us through a highly-curated piece of the collection weaving in history, art commentary and note-worthy anecdotes. Great tour!
Rosita's tour was exceptional! I enthusiastically recommend her as a guide. Rosita went above and beyond to create a cohesive and easy to follow experience through the Prado. She has deep knowledge of all the works in the museum and shared her knowledge in a warm and approachable way. This was by far the best museum experience I have ever had.
