5.00Rosita'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.

5.00Rosita was incredible! She met us outside, and was immediately welcoming. She wanted to learn about us personally and then began the tour. During the tour she was extremely knowledgeable, even with questions regarding more history! She also made us feel very comfortable, to ask questions and not be scared if it was a “silly” one. She was lively and exciting. We could feel her enthusiasm when she spoke and it really made us feel excited! If you’re a beginner or an experienced visitor( you cannot go wrong with Rosita! I can’t wait to hopefully see her again on another tour!

5.00Jaime was our perfect partner for our introduction to the Prado collections. Knowledgeable, soft spoken and clear, he took us through the centuries, explaining the works of famous artists. He accommodated personal requests and explained the minute features of famous works. We were lucky to have Jaime for our Prado journey.
Fantastic tour with professional guide

5.00Beatriz brought passion and knowledge to our tour. She made sure to give detail when needed but not to overwhelm with minutia. She keep the pace lively and still gave us more than enough to consider. Were we to do this or another tour again, we would most definitely ask for Beatriz!
Prado Museum small group tour
R3538ZQmiked,Jul 15, 2025
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00The Prado Museum was mesmerizing. We lost sense of time, after our guided tour concluded, we ended up wandering for hours longer. There is just so much to see. Our tour guide, Rosita, was incredible. She was enthusiastic and passionate about art, and the history behind the art, artists, and the country of Spain. Her knowledge and insights brought out a great deal of perspective and backstory that really enriched our enjoyment of art pieces she emphasized. There were main hall pieces, but also side trips and perspectives of lesser pieces that were very interesting. As we concluded, she was great about suggesting other areas to visit (both within and outside the Prado). Terrific tour!
