Both my partner and I have advanced degrees in art and have taken several art history courses. Our tour guide Sean delivered the highest level of art history experience. He wove art and history together. He picked us up at our hotel and shepherded us seamlessly into the Prado. He was very knowledgable, enthusiastic and interesting. The Prado is a big place but his tour touched on all the highlights. His stories gave a lot of context to those great works of art. A highlight of our visit to Madrid.

Our group had a fantastic experience with our guide Enrique…he was super knowledgeable, charismatic and focused. He provided excellent context for viewing the treasures of the Prado by giving us a background on the development of perspective by Van der Weyden and then symbolism used by Bosch before launching the group into the masters of Italian renaissance and mannerist schools and finally the cream of the crop of brilliant Spanish masters. His discussion of the works of El Greco, Velasquez, Ribera and others was poignant. He covered so much ground and gave us all a more keen appreciation for the development of Spanish art.

Enrique is great. He is so knowledgeable about art history and the Prado. We did a walking tour to the museum and learned a lot of Madrid history.

Our tour guide, Enrique, was waiting for at our hotel in Madrid. The tour began immediately out of the hotel lobby, enroute to the Prado Museum. The Prado is magnificent. I've never seen so many brilliantly glowing works of art. Whomever cleans the paintings deserves 5 stars. Our guide, Enrique's excitement and knowledge about the art was absolutely spellbinding. Paintings we would have walked past with just a glance, were explained, highlighted, and shown from different angles to see hidden gems. When we left, after 3 mesmerizing hours, my husband and I were just as thrilled by the Prado's exquisite art as we were by our wonderful guide Enrique.

Our guide, Eva, was fantastic! She made the paintings come alive. The 3 hours just flew by. We had a teenager in our group and she thought this tour was the highlight of the trip.
