User reviews
- Fantástico, es muy bonito.
- Da gusto poder visitar con tanta comodidad partes tan importantes del Patrimonio de España
- Preciosa visita
- Ya lo había visto pero me encantó volver a verlo. Siempre es muy agradable la experiencia. El Palacio Real es una maravilla para contemplar.
- La experiencia ha sido muy enriquecedora.
- Genial la guía que hemos tenido en la visita. Lo ha explicado todo fenomenal.
- Una visita muy interesante y aconsejable coger visita guiada ya que se accede a salas cerradas. Si vais en inverno se recomienda ir bien abrigados. Por favor no intentéis colaros en las visitas guiadas ya que os van a pillar.
- Carmen nos explicó todo muy bien. Los guías de Patrimonio son muy buenos; la visita es otra cosa con ellos. Las audioguías son mucho peores; incluso la audioguía de hoy en las Galerías del Palacio Real de Madrid, que es buena, no le llega a la altura de los zapatos a una guía personal.
- Una visita Interesante y bien explicada por Cristiano
- El palacio esta muy bien conservado , todo muy limpio y el personal que trabaja super amable , una gran experiencia me ha encantado......
- Maravilloso, hemos hecho la visita guiada con David y ha sido espectacular para todos (familia con miembros de 10 a 89 años)
- El guía ha sido absolutamente maravilloso, lo ha explicado todo muy bien y ha estado muy pendiente. ¡Para repetir!
- Todo genial
- Muy amable el personal.
- La guía ha sido una gran comunicadora, conoce a la perfección su trabajo
