Don’t just take our word for it
Carlos is an amazing guide! He was wonderful with my children ages 5-15. He answered all of their may questions about the history of Spain’s monarchy and told them delightful stories about the different princesses, princes, kings and queens. We truly had a “behind-the-scenes” experience. Highly recommend!
Enrique provided an excellent tour. He is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the Palace, Madrid, and Spanish history and culture. He has very deep knowledge of the relationship of the art of the Palace and ancient mythology. We recommend Enrique.
