Madrid: Royal Palace Expert Guided Tour with Optional Tapas
Overview
Join a 2-hour guided tour of Madrid's Royal Palace. Admire the works of art by Giordano and Goya as you explore the palace at a leisurely time during the day with an expert guide who has an in-depth knowledge of the home of Spanish royalty.
Meet your guide at the Ópera metro stop located at Plaza de Isabel II in front of the Teatro Real. After a stroll through the picturesque Plaza de Oriente, take advantage of skip-the-line access to the palace.
