Why take this tour?

With thousands of people visiting the Prado every day, the legendary Madrid museum can get incredibly crowded. But the masses of visitors will be the least of your concern on this VIP Prado tour, which welcomes you into the silent galleries of the museum an hour before it opens to the public. Be struck breathless by Las Meninas, The Garden of Earthly Delights, Goya’s Black Paintings, and other icons of Spanish and European art—all without the crowds that will inevitably surround them later. At every step of the way, you’ll be accompanied by an art history expert as your guide, who will share the stories and context behind each work so you can make the most of every minute throughout this priceless experience.
