Reviews Private Tour Prado Museum
Wonderful Tour of the Prado Museum
I loved this tour of the Prado with Mathilde, it was really captivating, you learn not only about historical events and their impact on art and vice versa, but also thrilling anecdotes. She manages to create a connection and a transition between each work that gives enormous meaning to the visit itself and also to the order in which it is made. It's an immersion in art history with a very competent, captivating and sympathetic guide. I had a great time and I recommend it without hesitation!
Great visit of the Prado Museum
After several years without going to the Prado, I let myself be tempted by this tour and came away enchanted. Mathilde gave us a high-quality tour, both in terms of the choice of works and the explanation of the historical and artistic context of the periods. I highly recommend because it allows you to be guided for two hours and enjoy the Prado and its works!
