Hi! My name is Zaira. I am an art historian and actress. I love Madrid and its history, especially the history of its artistic institutions, where we can enjoy great works of universal art. That is why I have decided to prepare this tour, to go a step beyond the simple visit to the museum and find out how and why the buildings that house the great artistic collections of our city were formed. In addition, I will advise you on the visits to each of them and the possible itineraries that you can take so that the tour is more comfortable and you do not miss anything important. I hope you are interested and encouraged. I wait for you!
Welcome to this tour on the creation of the great museums of Madrid (Museo del Prado, Thyssen-Bornemisza and Reina Sofía) in which, above all, we are going to focus on the court of Carlos III, who was named, like many of you will know, the best mayor of Madrid. Therefore, we are going to try to delve into enlightened Spain and what the arrival of the Bourbons to the Spanish crown meant. We will tour the Paseo del Prado, making stops at the Prado Museum, the Villahermosa Palace, the Caixa Forum, the MNCARS and we will finish in Atocha, at the Arte station.

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
