Alex Tour Guy , he was very attentive,knowledgeable and explained every stop in detail. The best of the whole experience. Tapas was not good experience, very small place,crowed and didn't have a seat for me. Restaurant was empty but I can't sit there.I finished leaving the place without having the "tapas".

The trip started at one of the entrances of Retiro park. Despite getting a bit lost on the way, Lydia kindly waited for me. A leisurely hour or so exploring Retiro park. Then an hours break before reconvening in front of the opera house outside the metro station. Larger group in the afternoon. Great tour of the palace. Be aware quite a few rooms you aren’t allowed to take photos. It’s a stunning palace and grounds. Lydia was a great guide and the trip was well organised. A well earned rest followed after lots of walking!

Ismael (Manolo) was a terrific tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and patient even considering our large group. He’s also very friendly and gave great details throughout the tour. I wish we would have had a chance to photograph more of the rooms that were part of the tour. We went through so many rooms and were only permitted to take photos in the first three rooms. I then toured the armory which you do on your own and it was spectacular. WOW. So interesting, but again no photos allowed. As a photographer, that was the purpose of visiting the palace. Highly disappointed in this aspect. It was affordable and we had a great tour guide. No complaints. The rest was out of their control. I recommend it.

We chose both the Retiro garden and the Royal Palace option. There were only four tourists in the garden but 24ish in the palace. It was a long day, but having a guide helped put the history into perspective. He was knowledgeable and humorous. Excellent work, Alex. A highlight was seeing the Stradivarius violins and musical instruments. Photos not allowed in those areas, only in the entrance halls and stairways.

David was a great tour guide, knowledgeable and personable. We started in the park and then walked to Madrid Palace. I highly recommend taking this tour.
