Traveler reviews
Wonderful way to tour the palace
My daughter and I truly enjoyed the tour of the Royal Palace of Madrid. Our guide, Enrique, was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer questions along the way. He made the history interesting and made it relatable, while giving us enough time to admire the gorgeous decor and architecture. We would do this again1
Excellent tour of the Royal Palace
Excellent tour of the Royal Palace. Borja was a great guide, very charismatic, entertaining, and knowledgeable.
History of a democratic reign.
A very interesting, educational, and fun visit! Highly recommended!
Great visit
With Borja, everything went super well And it was well explained.
A trip to the past with stories and humor.
Guide Borja captivated us with his storytelling from the very first moment. From the opera square to the palace, he introduced us to the topic, which meant we were already immersed in the history from minute one. You cannot miss this view with him!
