Madrid Full Day Tour with Prado Museum and Royal Palace
Overview
This tour starts at 10am next to El Retiro Park. This is the starting point to the exploration of an area known as Landscape of Light. This neighborhood was listed in 2020 as UNESCO World Heritage thanks to its unique artistic and cultural assets.
After strolling through El Retiro and spotting highlights like Puerta de Alcalá and the Cibeles fountain, you will explore the masterpieces of the Prado Museum with your guide, like Velázquez’s Meninas, El Bosco’s Garden of Delights and Goya’s Black Paintings. Next is some free-time to have lunch. Your guide will give you some tips to find good, local food options.
After lunch, you’ll meet your guide again to visit together the old town of Madrid and hear about the Habsburg dynasty, the monarchs that brought splendor to the Spanish capital. At the end of this itinerary, which includes landmarks like Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor, you will discover the interior of the Royal Palace of Madrid with your guide.
