Everything was wonderful. We were even treated to a military parade while waiting in line. Thank you for assisting us with rescheduling our ticket dare after a death in the family causing a change in our family plans. We are very grateful to the staff!

Ease of purchase, accompanying explanations. I did not like the need to install the app and the instructions on schedules that were only valid during COVID period but are not needed now. Also the ticket redemption is no longer needed, just the pdf on your phone

Absolutely one of the best museum visits ever. Our guide was a walking encyclopedia. We had visited the Prado several times before, but we learned more than we ever expected. Not only did we learn, but we are still discussing the different theories and we are discussing how his presentation opened our curiosity to other works of art in other museums that we had visited. His knowledge and delivery were anazing

I would prefered to call your company to discuss my experience. I purchased 6 tickets, on line for Monday, October 6th. I got confirmationi, but nothing that clearly stated we were to meet outside of Starbucks, who incidenently can offer no help and are across a busy street. We scrambled to make the 1 pm start. The guide was 10 to 15 minutes late and did not have enough sound boxes for all who had signed up. We got one of the six we should have been given. The couple beside us go none. When Luiz tried to get more sound boxes (not sure of their actual name) he says he was told the museum didn't have anymore. By the time the tour started, it was past 1:30. Five of us could not hear and Luiz could not speak loudly. We had no time to browse following the tour because we had all checked our bags under 1 claims tag, per the tour guide. This was to speed things up, but meant that we had to all leave when he left, presumably for his next group. We did not get what I paid $270.00 for and believe we should be refunded a portion of the cost of 5 of the tickets. In an effort to say something positive: Luiz was knowledgable.
