We saw three museums on our stay in Madrid and this was my favourite. The lay-out is easy to follow and the staff were very helpful. One tip is to take the Art Walk ticket if you plan to see the Prado and the Reine Sofia - cheaper that way More

The journey through the history of art was well worth doing and we both learned agreat deal.Toroughly recommended. More

A truly amazing collection, with each work of art truly the best of its time. Well worth a visit. More
