Well done! - Our guide was very good, well organised. We could cut many long line and went through some area that only for the guided tour only. We leaned many detailed of the palace from our guide's explanation. It's worth to pay extra to join the tour, otherwise the place was a mad house!

Recommended because in a short time you know many details - Good guide Pedro, pleasant, interesting data, knew the guards and gave us vip access. Even though there were a lot of people we finished on time.

DO THIS TOUR! Worth Every Penny! - María represented everything you hope for in a tour guide. PATIENT (so many attendees arrived scrambling to find the meeting spot and she was EXTREMELY accommodating and kind). Which puts any tourist at ease trying to navigate a big, bustling city. PROFESSIONAL: Expectations clearly described including what to expect during the tour and how it will proceed. EXPERT: María has a deep, historian level of knowledge that she was able to describe in simple terms to those new to Madrid's history as well as its place in Spanish history. And last, but not least, ORGANIZED: I remember going on field trips as a kid and she did what the best guides did. Took care of her group of foreign travelers like they were her own family. ¡BRAVA María! I wish every guide in the world was like her.

An Amazing Royal Palace Tour - My visit to the Royal Palace was unforgettable, thanks entirely to our incredible tour guide. She was warm, welcoming, and so knowledgeable that every room felt alive with history. She explained everything with such clarity and passion, and her English was absolutely amazing! What impressed me most was how she made the tour both educational and genuinely fun. She had a way of telling stories that kept all of us completely engaged, and she answered every question with patience and expertise. It was honestly one of the best guided tours I’ve been on. When I return to Madrid with my family, I will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you for an amazing tour!

An amazing visit. - An amazing visit! I highly recommend, I have been to Madrid many times but I have never enjoyed as much as this time. The guide has been very friendly and professional. We have loved the experience and certainly if we return to Madrid we will repeat with 4U Madrid.

Fantastic Royal Palace visit!! - The guided tour of the Royal Palace of Madrid was amazing. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, explaining the history of each room in an interesting and engaging way. The palace itself is absolutely stunning, full of art, beautiful decorations, and impressive architecture. Skipping the line made everything easy and smooth, and the whole experience felt very well organized. It was a great way to learn about Spanish history while enjoying one of the most beautiful landmarks in Madrid. Highly recommended!

Disappointed tour of Madrid Royal Palace - The tour guide spoke poor English and his cadence and tone was very hard to understand . Many tours are poor due to the guides. I would highly recommend all tours with the audio guide and buy your ticket directly from the site you want to visit

Unreliable. - Dreadful. Booked for an 80th birthday celebration and was cancelled the afternoon before. Poor communication and no alternatives offered. Very disappointing.
