That's all well and good, but at one ticket window, the staff wasn't very familiar with the system. That didn't stop us from having some great visits, though.

Enjoyed reduced price entry over the three biggest galleries in Madrid. The app had a tendency to glitch when displaying the barcode and other info and twp of the three galleries issued their own tickets having scanned said barcode. This ticket provides a great overbview of old masters at the Prado, Picassa's Gurnica and other treats at the Reina Sofia and the Thyssen brings you right up to date including a mix of old favourites (Renoir, Degas) and modern art from the likes of Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Piet Mondrian and Kandinsky

I really enjoyed the museums. It’s a great option—this kind of combined ticket. First of all, you skip the lines everywhere and go straight into the museum. Second, being able to choose your own visit date is very convenient. That’s exactly how it turned out for me. I had planned to visit all of them in one day. But the Prado was so interesting that I spent a lot of time there and decided to visit the other museums later. That’s why this ticket option is so convenient

The single-ticket experience was great—no lines at all, except at the Prado, where you still have to exchange it. I was lucky enough to never have to wait in line since I went on a weekday, even though I was with a child under 18 who needed a free ticket.

The Prado Museum is magnificent. The Reina Sofia is modern art, so I didn't like everything, but the space in front of *Guernica* is big enough for everyone to enjoy it without having to elbow their way through. The audio guide isn’t that interesting—not enough information about the painter, the work, the context, etc.—and too many comments like “magnificent,” “revolutionary,” “outside the box,” etc. Thyssen: Not on par with the other two; a profusion of works by minor artists, with a few minor works by major artists. If you don’t have it included in a package and you’re not a painting enthusiast, it’s best to skip it.

Enjoy flexible or timed entry to the largest collection of Spanish art housed at the Prado Museum, with an optional on-site or digital audio guide.

Get the chance to view over 20,000 works ranging from Renaissance-era paintings by Bosch to 19th-century masterpieces by Antonio Gisbert.

Gain insights on famous pieces in the museum, from Las Meninas by Velázquez to Andromeda & the Dragon by Titian and more.

Upgrade to the Paseo Del Arte card and save on entrance fees of Madrid's 3 best museums — Prado, Thyssen-Bornemisza, and Reina Sofia.

Fun fact: Prado Museum houses one of Francisco Goya’s most recognizable and morbidly brilliant oil paintings — Saturn Devouring His Son.

A cultural landmark

The Prado Museum is a site of huge national and global importance. Occupying an 18th-century neoclassical building, the museum is home to over 20,000 works of art. Including 7,500 paintings, 8,000 drawings, 4,800 prints, and 1,000 sculptures and other artworks and historical documents.

Bypass the arduous ticketing queue and, after a brief security check, you are free to roam Prado's galleries. The exhibits on display are spread over 3 levels: basement, first, and second.

Choose your own path

You can explore the museum's galleries for as long as you like. Some of the greats whose works adorn the walls are Francisco Goya, El Greco, Diego Velazquez, Hieronymus Bosch, Peter Paul Rubens, and Titian. Learn more about them with an optional on-site audio guide in 11 languages or a digital audio guide in 5 languages. If you are an avid fan of the arts you should upgrade to the Paseo Del Arte card. This one super saver pass will grant you access to Madrid's best museums — Prado Museum, Thyssen-Bornemisza museum, and Reina Sofia Museum.
