Step by Step

The Prado Museum is one of the world’s most prestigious museums, and this guided tour offers you a unique opportunity to discover its most iconic works. With priority access, you’ll avoid the long queues and step straight into the history of universal art.

Throughout the tour, your guide will lead you through the museum’s main galleries, providing context, interesting facts and anecdotes about the most significant works. You’ll admire iconic paintings in detail, such as Bosch’s *The Garden of Earthly Delights*, Velázquez’s *Las Meninas* and Goya’s*3 May 1808*, and gain an in-depth understanding of the geniuses who created them.

This experience is perfect for both art lovers and first-time visitors to the museum, as the Prado’s vast collection can be overwhelming without an expert guide. Furthermore, the audio guide system ensures you can hear the explanations clearly at all times.

The tour also includes information on the history of the building that houses the museum, from its construction as the Gabinete de Ciencias to its conversion into Spain’s leading art gallery.

Once the guided tour has finished, you have the option to stay inside the museum for as long as you like to continue exploring at your own pace.
