The Prado Museum is one of the most visited monuments in Madrid, and not just because of the breathtaking neoclassical facades. Inside, on a 2 to 2 and a half hour semi private tour, you will discover a world class collection of art that captivates travellers from all over the world. No trip to the Spanish capital is complete without passing through the Prado's doors, and with the help of a guide, you won't waste a moment wondering what you're browsing. Built in the late 1700s, the Prado began showcasing art in the early 1800s. Predominantly featuring paintings, it also has sculptures and prints among thousands of works dating from the 1200s. The most famous pieces include Las Meninas or The Maids of Honour, an inventive self portrait by Spanish born Velazquez and The Garden of Earthly Delights, a triptych from Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch. The Prado houses the largest collection of Italian masterpieces outside of Italy, featuring works like The Annunciation by Fra Angelico and David and Goliath by Caravaggio. With your expert guide, you'll hear all about the stories and scandals behind artists including Goya, Rembrandt, El Greco, and others. By the end of your tour, you'll have walked through centuries of history and taken part in a quintessential Madrilenian experience.
