I purchased this ticket for Royale Palace Madrid. I was denied entry to Royale Palace at the entrance because guard said this ticket not for Royale Palace. I called Headout asking for refund but my request was denied. Headout booking information and details written on tickets are misleading. Headout agent said only can refund me 25 percent of ticket price into credit wallet. But I asked for credit back as cash into my credit card. No response from Headout.

It was a very interesting visit. There was no need to buy skip-the-line tickets because there were few people and no lines. The exhibition on Queen Elizabeth II was very well documented and revealed a charismatic human being with a sense of statehood. We were sorry that we only visited the part related to the Bourbons. The part related to the Habsburgs will have to wait for another opportunity.

The gallery visit was good and we were impressed with the display we saw. However, I am not satisfied with the online purchase of the ticket, it said "Royal Palace + Gallery" and we expected that it meant a tour of the royal palace. That was not the case, the officials only directed us to the gallery. We are unfortunate that we missed the tour of the royal palace. Regards, Milija

Journey Through Spanish Royal Collections

Embark on a journey through history with skip-the-line tickets to the Royal Collections Gallery. From the moment you step inside, you'll be transported back in time, beginning with the showcasing of the impressive 1495 helmet of Fernando el Católico and continuing with the striking Mühlberg harness of Carlos V from 1544. Each historical piece tells a unique story about the period and the people who lived during that time.

Artistic Excellence and Intriguing Antiquities

The experience only gets richer as you advance to the art section. Here, you'll be greeted by stunning paintings from masters such as Velázquez, Caravaggio, and Goya. One highlight is Velázquez's 'White Horse' from the period 1634 to 1638, a masterpiece that captures the majesty of the royal steeds.

As you navigate through the gallery, you'll discover how the Spanish royal family was not just a patron of the arts, but also a curator of global cultures. The Michoacán workshop's reliquary casket, for instance, hails from around 1600 and bears the artistic imprint of culture thousands of miles away.

This journey through Spain's royal history isn't just an art tour, but a trip back in time, allowing you to witness the evolution of the nation through various artifacts, paintings, and relics.
