Museum in Madrid - Helena was our tour guide and she provided us with a myriad of information on the change in artistry from the 1900s to the 1930's and explained how the works of Dali, Picasso created a new perspective on viewing of painters of that era. She also was our guide through the Prado and felt it was one of the best I have experienced as to a knowledgeable individual in the arts.

Stellar but rushed - The host was fabulous but too much time was spent on logistics and museum access which took away from time we could have spent listening to our fabulous docent. I get rushed and there was so much to see. I would suggest a 2 hour experience for the second floor.

So come for Guernica but stay for all the other amazing art, posters, and drawings (and more) - Whilst Guernica was what we really wanted to see, we loved a lot of the other offerings (there were really interesting Picasso and Dali's, as well as many many others - also some of the old/ancient architectural drawings are amazing) Superficially Guernica appeared simply big and drab, until we read the Wikipedia description of it, and then it took on a whole new significance - it is just boggling. What an amazing piece of art. Simple and yet incredibly complex at the same time. My wife and I left feeling completely impressed. We had booked our tickets ahead, and arrived shortly after opening time - the queue was not too long, and we got in quickly. At that time of the day the crowd around Guernica wasn't overwhelming put when we were leaving we noticed that it had dramatically increased. So come for Guernica but stay for all the other amazing art, posters, and drawings (and more)

DO NOT Book with this company!! - Absolutely don’t book with this company! The guide never showed and I received an email that I would get a partial refund. Now several days later they are refusing any refund saying too bad we sent you the wrong information. Absolutely do not use this company because it’s was two separate tours that were effected that I didn’t get a refund for even though I received an email that they would be sending me a partial refund. Absolutely not a reputable company! Lied over and over again and said too bad in the end. I contacted them several times via WhatsApp for them to blow me off.

Improper meeting information - We arrived to the museum 45 minutes early to check out the meeting point. The map links take visitors to a side of the museum with what looks like a private entrance to the museum AND there is a statue in that entrance area. (Directions say to meet at the tall statue). We showed a security guard the meeting directions and he said to go to the other side of the museum. We did…and we waited there until 1 minute before the start time (not exaggerating) and began to panic because there was no guide, and we were the only couple standing by the statue so we followed the map directions back to the other side of the museum. As a result, we missed the tour. We texted the tour operator while trying to find them and were told we were out of luck and that we could not get into the museum or join a later tour. While we are disappointed to not be refunded at least the museum entrance portion of the tour, we are more disappointed to not get into the museum at. all. We departed Madrid the following day. This is our long way of saying, should you book this tour, do not follow the maps. Meet in what I would call the "square" and stay by the tall statue until after your meeting time. We have no idea what time the tour operator actually showed up, but for us it was after the scheduled tour start time.
