What to expect

You'll meet your guide at your chosen museum's main entrance and spend two hours walking through galleries at a measured pace. The guide points out standout pieces and their context rather than cataloguing everything. At Reina Sofía, expect commentary on the building's transformation from medical facility to cultural institution. At the Prado, you'll cover major movements in Spanish art. Thyssen-Bornemisza jumps across centuries and styles—a visual sprint through European taste. Crowds vary by time of day; mornings tend quieter.
