This was a great option and i highly recommend.Written September 27, 2024
- CrabV0 contributionsBeautiful of Toledo, the City of Three Cultures.We were fortunate to have Amanda as our English speaking guide. She is an excellent speaker and guide. She had an abundance of facts and historical information to share. Her articulation was phenomenal. Toledo is a beautiful city and this is a must do tour. Early tours are recommended because it does get very crowded!Written September 26, 2024
- janerI3444ZR0 contributionsGreat experience, glad we did the tour.The tour was a great way to experience the Palace. The guide as knowledgeable and spoke good English. The rooms do get pretty crowded and hot at times, but not the fault of the tour.Written September 18, 2024
- L417HAtraceyw0 contributionsTour of the Royal PalaceThe tour of the Royal Palace was excellent. Very informative tour. Visits to places like the Royal Palace gives one a better understanding of history and how a lot of Europe has a shared history.Written September 14, 2024
- LorraineK9580 contributionsHighly recommended tourThe garden was amazing! Christina really brought things to life with her descriptions and explanations. She was very very knowledgable and even showed us a hidden part of the garden that even the residence of Madrid don’t know about! It was a wonderful tour and I highly recommend.Written September 10, 2024
- shellyp2470 contributionsWhat an unprofessional rip you off outfitPalace was great but could do it yourself much cheaper. Not clear on how to choose which option and then told we had missed the collections one. Decided to take up the tapas option but it was a Saturday and the restaurant doesn’t see you after 0900 on a Saturday. Not told this by the guide who told us how to get to tapas. Would love a refund but there is a no reply on the email. Will never use trip advisor again if I can help itWritten September 7, 2024
- Kelly R0 contributionsGreat overview of Spanish historyThe Royal Palace tour was informative and interesting. Rocio was a good guide. She seemed passionate about sharing the history and culture of Madrid and Spain. There was no mention of the tapas portion of the tour. We were tired and opted for a siesta instead of guiding ourselves to the restaurant.Written September 5, 2024
- Scenic313747395910 contributionsPrivate tour of the Prado with Jose from IBEtours…..My wife and I had booked a private, guided tour of the Prado. It would be a 2 hr tour in English. The guide met us as agreed at the place and time agreed. The guide’s name was Jose and he gave us an absolutely amazing tour at the right pace with the right depth of information and was very responsive to questions. Jose was passionate and clearly knowledgeable about what we saw and both my wife and I felt enriched by all the insights Jose was able to share. We both highly recommend this tour !Written September 2, 2024
- Audra_DB0 contributionsMore waiting than a tourWe spent 15 minutes in the sun waiting for the group and then walked another 15 to the palace instead of meeting there. Then another 10 minutes in line to get in. Of the 1.5hr tour less than an hour was the tour. In addition, the content of the tour was less informative than just reading the boards. Then had to wait several minutes in each room for the entire group to catch up since it was so large. Not sure it’s worth the money vs just skipping the line.Written August 25, 2024
- Mobile424927461000 contributionsGreat tourJose was a great guide. Very knowledgeable. Would recommend this tour. The palace itself was unbelievably beautiful. Jose was great like I said. He went a bit fast occasionally but taught us so much.Written August 18, 2024

Touted the Gothic area, are tapas, watched flamenco dancers. We had 3 tapas plates and cava between 3 people. Expected more food for the price we paid. The guide and dancers were great though.
