Royal Palace of Madrid

The Royal Palace of Madrid isn't just a residence; it's a place steeped in grandeur and history. Although the current kings reside elsewhere, this majestic palace remains the setting for important state ceremonies and solemn occasions, making it come alive with its significance. Let's dive into its story now. While Juvarra's original vision didn't materialize, the Royal Palace stands proud as Europe's largest inhabited palace. The Spanish Royal Family might not call it home, but it still holds their official residence. Construction lasted until 1764, and when Carlos III finally inhabited it, the palace boasted a staggering 135,000 square meters, 3,418 rooms, 870 windows, 240 balconies, and an impressive 44 staircases. It's more than just facts and figures; this palace holds tales of splendor and tradition, making every step within its walls an encounter with the essence of Spanish history.

    Great way to learn about the Spanish Royals♡ Personally I found the tour very rushed, we didnt havebtime to look around and take our time....groups coming in and we needed to be out quick, the ear piece wasn't staying on and difficult for kids with smaller ears. We didnhave the option to go back inside and walk around ourselves again of we wanted so that was a bonus if you felt rushed. Definitely recommend.

  • 100% recommended!!

    Lei did a wonderful job giving our tour of the Royal Palace. She was very thorough, we saw many rooms and we learned bits of history that we’ll be able to remember. She was funny and personable so we felt at ease right away!

    We enjoyed our time visiting the palace! The tour was off to a rocky start - some people were late and we had to wait for the tour guides to get the groups situated and this caused our tour to begin 45 minutes past the original start time. Luckily we did not have any scheduled obligations after this tour, but I can imagine if we did the inconvenience it would have caused us. Although, I can confidently say, the exposure to the beautiful stricture and design of the palace really made up for the delayed start time. We highly recommend this educational tour if you enjoy beautiful affective, interior design and history!

  • The tour was efficient...
