Description

Inside the Palace you will see the main structure of the Spanish Monarchy through the centuries. Flamboyant clocks, unbelievable decoration, the most subtlest kind of art and, maybe most important, the Spanish History since the building was built (and something about the previous), which makes the tour not just beautiful, but useful when in Madrid. You will know things you will be able to apply to the rest of your journey in Spain. Since we begin to work at places like the Prado, there was something we had clear: our products need to be sustainable so we can do our best. That's why we work just with a maximum of 8 people at a time. We know you already know things about the Royal Palace (3.418 rooms, luxury, etc) but what makes this a special tour is that we really care about you. We have a compromise with you and with our lovely country, so we want you to really enjoy it and go back to your home with a great memory about us and our little, tiny place in the world.

Lovely palace. The guide...

Lovely palace. The guide was knowledgeable and provided us with a lot of information. They kept trying to compare it with Versailles, but it really wasn't comparable. However, it was lovely and not nearly as crowded as Versailles, so a better experience.

Beautiful

Our guide Stefania is an Italian girl who has lived in Spain for years; she was very friendly and willing to answer all our questions. Moreover, since there was only our reservation, it felt as if we had taken the tour with a private guide just for us.

Operator response

Vive in Spagna da ani fa! Anzi, quando Scipione L'Africano è arrivato qui é stata lei a dire: salve, benvenuto a Hispania, questo è un paese ancora non veramente fondato da voi, ma comunque ci sta. Grazie mille per il suo comentario! Tornate presto, è un piacere ricevere gente come voi =)

My friend and I really...

My friend and I really enjoyed our tour of the Royal Palace. Maria was our tour guide and she was amazing. She was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the palace, its rooms, and the royal families, but she also provided us with some good royal gossip! AND she’s very funny. It was a small group of four so we were able to ask lots of questions and found it more personable. Highly recommend.

Operator response

The one and only María is a gem of a historian and we are enthusiastic to read this. Thank you very much for your words, come back soon!

Great tour

The Palace is an overwhelming experience. Rooms full of history, with art work , tapestries, and beautiful furniture. Our tour guide, Maria, was great, giving us an historical perspective in each room and for the palace overall.

Operator response

That's our number 1 historian! Thank you very much for this review, we highly appreciate. Hope you come back soon, next time: the Prado Museum. May that be soon! Thanks again!

Highly recommended visit to the Royal Palace

I had booked a guided tour with a small group and in the end only I was "the group". So I was able to enjoy a wonderful visit with Maria, the guide, a girl charm and a great professional. Highly recommended activity!!
