Experience Art & Culture tours in the best of
Madrid with Withlocals

"We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Prado with Laura. We didn’t want to explore the museum on our own—we wanted to see the most important paintings and gain a deeper understanding of the art and its history. Laura brought the paintings to life by sharing the stories behind them and providing historical context that we never would have discovered on our own. The tour was engaging, informative, and memorable. I would highly recommend taking a tour with Laura."

"Elena was the perfect host, so much so that by the end of the trip, we all felt we had known her for years! She had great knowledge and insight into all the features of Madrid that we had expressed an interest in; art, culture, architecture and boutique streets. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you so much Elena!! "

"Laura epitomizes all the characteristics of an excellent guide, particularly when working with varying levels of enthusiasm for the materiala at hand. She’s very friendly, knowledgeable and able to engage even the less enthusiastic members of the group. In the end, my art-loving husband very much enjoyed discussing the pieces in depth and even our 15-year-old son enjoyed the tour."

"Drica was an incredible guide through the Reina Sofia. She helped us to understand the stories of the artists, their lives and styles, as well as contextualize the art with the history of Spain. Her 2 hour tour flew by and we lingered even longer in the museum after the tour. We really felt like we were experiencing Spain, as opposed to just walking through a museum. The tour culminated with the breathtaking Guernica and it felt like the conclusion of a story. It was both moving and inspirational. We will not hesitate to book further tours with Drica the next time we are in Spain. It was a wonderful afternoon."

"We absolutely loved our time with Drica! She knows so much about art, we loved our del Prado tour. We had a lot of questions and she was able to answer all. I wish the tour was longer, would have loved to see more. Highly recommend her!"

"We had a truly wonderful experience with Govi. She was knowledgeable, patient, friendly and fun. We would highly recommend her!"

"Great time and felt like we had been given a fantastic art history lesson. Utterly fascinating and totally memorable. Thanks "

"Majo toured our Canadian family around the Prado with a 6 and 8 year old - in English - and kept us all entertained and taught us a lot. Thank you for a wonderful intro into Spanish art history, Majo! We highly recommend your tours. "

"We spent a wonderful 2 hours with Drica at the Reina Sofia. She was extremely knowledgeable, placing the art in its historical context. She has a unique ability to bring history to life through art. We’ve had many tour guides over the years but Drica is one of the very best."

"Laura’s tour of the Reina Sofia was perfect. She provided just the right blend of high level perspective plus detail. We felt that we had really learned about Picasso, Miro and Dali by the end of our time with Laura. "
