Final day in Madrid. Perfect ensing

Sergio communicated meeting location and started the tour promptly. He obviously knew what he was talking about and answered every question. Can’t say enough. I love the semi-private tours

Enthusiastic Prado Tour

Jacqueline_J, Oct 2024

We were fortunate to have a private guided tour of the Prado Museum with Angel, Babylon Tours. Angel is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about art history and the Prado. He reached out numerous times the day before and morning of to ensure we could find the meeting place. He ran over his allotted time and would have kept going accept I reached my mental capacity to take in any more information. He taught us about artists like Bosche (Bosco) and so much more. The best guided museum tour I've experienced. Delightful.

Memorable Prado Tour

Veronica_G, Oct 2024

A brilliant tour of the Prado and the highlight of our trip to Madrid. Our semi-private tour turned out to be just the two of us so a memorable, bespoke experience conducted by Jake. Jake’s in depth description of each exhibit was set not only in the specific historical context of the period but brought to life by the biographical detail of the artist. This created an environment whereby we were able to have a lively and informative discussion which resulted in a very satisfying visit. We would certainly request Jake should we return to Madrid and take another tour.

Amazing Tour !

We did a semi-private tour that ended up being private, lucky us! Alex our guide was simply the best guide we have ever had through all our travels. Alex made our experience amazing with meaningful insight into art and art history along with being extremely personable. We learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed the 2-1/2 hours we spent together. Muchas Gracias !! Our favorite tour of our entire trip!

First trip to the Prado

Debra_H, Oct 2023

David was an excellent tour guide. He explained the paintings in relation to history, schools of art, and previous painters.. An afternoon at the Prado is only an introduction!

Excellent

MaryAnn_B, Sep 2023

Beautiful museum. Our guide Andrea was fantastic. She explained everything explicitly. Made the museum come alive.

Amazing!

Caitlin_T, Sep 2023

Andrea made this our best museum experience ever! She was in touch ahead of the tour to make sure we found her easily and the skip the line feature is wonderful. Her knowledge and enthusiasm about the artwork and how it relates to Spanish culture was astounding. She is kind and lovely. We would 1000% recommend this experience to others!!!

Excellent guide sharing his love of art!

Caryl_C, Nov 2022

Luis Davide gave us an excellent tour with his expertise and obvious love of the Prado museum collection...highly recommend specifically him.

A fun, thoughtful, memorable experience!

Ana brought each piece of art and it’s artist to life as she explained history the composition of each piece and the history that was taking place when the artist was creating. She is smart with a great sense of humor -great conversationalist.

Incredible tour

Edna_A, Aug 2022

The tour of Prado museum was incredible. Angel our guide gave a wonderful tour. We went into the museum with little art knowledge and left with a greater appreciation of some of the greatest works created. Angel is not only knowledgeable, he has a great passion for the artworks. Would highly recommend this tour and ask Angel you won’t be disappointed.
