Prado Museum - must see in Madrid - We had a fabulous tour of the Prado Museum, that was facilitated by our wonderful tour guide Irina K. She communicated in advance of the tour, met us promptly at the start time and allowed us to skip the line for rapid entry. In a few hours she navigated through the highlights of the museum providing very interesting and informative commentary and historical perspective.

Best art tour guide! - Our guide, Hernan Satt, was very knowledgeable and engaging, managing to tailor the tour to the varied interests of the four of us. Deeply informed about both the art itself and the history behind the pieces, he made the collection come alive. Highly recommended! We will seek him out when we visit again...

Accessible tour - Irina was an excellent guide. We did not have a lot of time left in the city, but Irina helped educate and guide us to some key works, while ensuring our wheelchair driven elderly family member could access everything in the Prado.

Best private tour ever! - The best private art museum tour I have done globally simply due to the caliber of our guide. Hernan. I have been to the Prado several times but wanted to do an in depth private tour to introduce the museum to my kids (10 and 12 yrs old). Our guide Hernan was simply incredible; keeping the kids engaged and the adults discovering too! We all learnt so much and had a great time while doing it! Definitely our highlight of our Madrid visit!

Outstanding! - You really need a guide to truly understand the history of this museum and its collection. Our guide, Irina, couldn’t have been better. The way she explained things almost brought the art to life. Highly recommend this tour.

Irina Brought the Museum to Life for Three Generations - Irina was absolutely wonderful! She was a fantastic guide and this tour really brought the museum to life. We brought our two young daughters with us along with my mother, and she did such a great job of teaching three generations about all the art we were seeing. This gave us so much more perspective than wandering alone or doing a group tour. Highly recommended!

Don't go to the Prado without a guide! - Irina was great. She was prompt, prepared, clear, and very friendly and engaging. Not being art historians, we wouldn't have gotten nearly the amount of understanding and appreciation for the Prado and its collection without her.

Prado family tour - We had an absolutely amazing family tour of the Prado with Mrs Irene K. Our family ranged from age 5 a 74 with a total of 6 people. She perfectly kept everyone entertained and engaged us into the history of the art. Irene is a professional historian that can connect the past to our modern day way of thinking! Thank you again Irene!
