Guidekin's take

Three private hours in the Prado with an official guide and admission included, meeting at your hotel or by the Goya statue at the entrance.

Long enough to go beyond the greatest hits into the rooms most group tours skip.

In our comparison: #10 of 29 in Prado Museum, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).

About this tour, from the operator

Visit Spain’s most important gallery, the 3 hour tour will allow you to see the essential works. The guide can pick you up from your hotel or also at the entrance of the gallery, next to the statue of Goya. The price of the tour includes the entrance ticket, which will also allow you to avoid the large queues.
During the tour not only will you get to know about the most important pieces, but also you will gain a general understanding of the evolution of art over the centuries. The greatest masters of all time are waiting for you inside.
