Inside the Palace you will see the main structure of the Spanish Monarchy through the centuries. Flamboyant clocks, unbelievable decoration, the most subtlest kind of art and, maybe most important, the Spanish History since the building was built (and something about the previous), which makes the tour not just beautiful, but useful when in Madrid. You will know things you will be able to apply to the rest of your journey in Spain. Since we begin to work at places like the Prado, there was something we had clear: our products need to be sustainable so we can do our best. That's why we work just with a maximum of 7 people at a time. We know you already know things about the Royal Palace (3.418 rooms, luxury, etc) but what makes this a special tour is that we really care about you. We have a compromise with you and with our lovely country, so we want you to really enjoy it and go back to your home with a great memory about us and our little, tiny place in the world.
