Madrid's cultural legacy comes into sharp focus on this shared half day tour, which grants skip-the-line access to two of the city's most magnificent institutions. The Royal Palace of Madrid, built in the 18th century in an Italian-influenced classical Baroque style on the former site of the Alcázar de los Austrias, spans 135,000 square meters,  making it the largest royal palace in Western Europe. An expert guide leads guests through its most iconic spaces, including the Grand Staircase, the throne room, the royal chapel, and the ornate apartments of King Charles III.

The experience continues at the Prado Museum, one of the world's foremost art collections, where guests move past the queue to stand before masterworks by Velázquez, Goya, El Greco, and El Bosco. A radio guide system ensures every word carries clearly throughout both visits.

From 18 May, the order of the visits will be reversed: the visit to the Prado Museum will take place first, followed by the Royal Palace.
