Prado Museum Small Group Tour with Skip the Line Ticket
Overview

1 hour 30 minutes
Mobile ticket
We are proud to say that this experience was awarded with the Viator Experience Award 2023 for second time in a row! This tour goes through the Prado Museum highlights. There are more than one thousand paintings inside (no, we didn't make a mistake, that's the truth), so we can't explore it all, nevertheless, we provide the base for you to go on your own after the visit. That's why we like to describe this as a didactic tour.
However, if you're an Art Pro, we've got good news: since we're going to be only 7 people, you can choose what to see and make requests, and that's why we like to describe this as a flexible tour.
If you are coming in a bigger group, send a mail and we'll arrange the visit.

5.00Really good tour. Excellent guide who helped navigate the otherwise overwhelming quantity and artworks in the Prado. Interesting background information about individual paintings, artists and historical and cultural contexts. We stayed on in the Prado after the tour for several hours and really enjoyed the whole afternoon.
An amazing and interesting tour

5.00We are not big fans of museums and painting but we really enjoyed this visit with Christina, French speaking guide. She knows both history and painting, presents the facts with wit and humor and this makes discovering the Prado and some of her works very pleasant!

5.00Received a small group tour with our 12/10 year old and 2 others. Well worth the cost. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We got so much more out of our visit vs just a self-guided tour. Would highly recommend.

5.00Our guide was very knowledgeable. We were able to see key works of art in the limited time. One should considering selecting the longer tours for this museum or plan to stay longer.
Well worth it!

4.00Beln our guide was excellent, it was worth getting the skip the queue and small group tour. The Prado was busy and we went at the very start of the tourist season. We loved the stories about the people and artists and the knowledge of the composition and terminology about the paintings was impressive.
Fantastic tour

5.00Maria was an absolutely wonderful guide! Her knowledge of the paintings was impressive, and she had a real gift for explaining everything clearly and in a way that was easy to follow. The breakdown of techniques was one of the highlights — I came away with a much deeper appreciation for the art. What really stood out was how she balanced being warm and personable with a polished, professional presence. The whole experience felt like sitting in on a college-level art class. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!
