Almudena Cathedral (Catedral de la Almudena) Tours and Tickets - page 8

Mitch was a fun guide who was very knowledgable. Gave great value to the tour without boring you to death with too much history. Fabulous palace. Definitely worth a visit. .

Very good experience, Jesús was very kind and organized to make the tour route enjoyable through the incredible spaces.

Sara proved to be a great guide around Madrid and the Royal Palace. She was very informative, friendly, and approachable. She provided a lot of local color. She made the tour a lot of fun. We highly recommend this tour. Don't miss the armory!

One of the locations on our list to visit while in Madrid was the Royal Palace. Upon doing the research, we learned that lines could be a bit long, so finding a tour that allowed us to skip the line was important. Our tour guide, Ander, was great. He had a wonderful sense of humor and made the tour an enjoyable experience. He was very knowledgeable about everything in the Royal Palace. He shared some interesting nuggets of information about historical points on our way to the Palace. Our group consisted of about 12-15 people. Not a large group, but large enough that the receivers and headphones certainly came in handy to ensure we could hear everything Ander was sharing. Here are the two reasons why I couldn't rate this tour as excellent. The check-in process was a bit clunky. Not horrible, but we had to wait on the side of the street to get checked in one by one, and it felt a bit disorganized, especially in an area where there are a lot of tourists and easy to get lost in the shuffle. Here is the primary reason that I knocked down the rating. The title of the tour is a bit deceiving. We booked the tour as it noted that it was a Royal Palace and Almudena Cathedral guided tour. The guided tour itself was only for the Royal Palace. Our guide left our group after the Palace tour, and we walked over to the Cathedral, where we entered on our own and walked around. I thought perhaps I had read the description incorrectly; however, I looked over it again, and it states that it is a guided tour for both the Palace and Cathedral. It was a bit disappointing that the description didn't align with the tour itself. However, I cannot knock on the great job Ander did during the part of the guided tour in the Palace. It was a great tour, but not sure if the cost aligns with what the actual tour was.

Informative and timely with excellent guide Nacho would recommend him to others interested in this tour.

Nice tour. Beatrice was delightful. Good onfo shared of Cathedral, Palace and buildings and Plaza along the way to palace

Fantastic tour of the Royal Palace with our guide Frederico. Despite rather large crowds he migrated our small group very nicely to keep us comfortable. Great history of an amazing historic building.

David was a knowledgeable and witty guide. Very patient with all of his guests. Tour company gets priority access over daily ticket holders.
