And I think that lot of people wasn't happy for that.Much better if this photo was included in ticket if they do like that. Flamenco show was amazing and dinner very delicious!”

5.Private Tour Prado Museum & City Tour with Flamenco

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 4 reviews · from $159

Spend five hours in Madrid with a bilingual guide, beginning at the Prado Museum with skip-the-line entry, then walking through the historic center before a one-hour flamenco show at Teatro Flamenco Madrid. Guides such as Eva and Javier have led this experience.

“The group as too large and the guide only showed us approx. 15 paintings (out of 30,000!) with no free time. She also did every explanation in 2 languages, which slowed everything to a crawl. Not recommending this one! The Flamenco was great however, but we were the only 2 to attend that portion.”
