A beautiful start to learning about art in Madrid. The museums and galleries in this city are many-I couldn't help but start with these three fabulous museums, which collect many of the world's most famous works and also host very interesting temporary exhibitions. With the pass, I didn't have to stand in long lines and could visit the museums when it was most convenient for me-the pass lasts for a year. There is also a small savings compared to buying the 3 separate tickets.

Everything very clear and complete. Only negative note are the fact that certain museums were free certain days and obviously it was not marked, so I could have saved money. However, I did not queue and enjoyed in full freedom of time and schedule the experiences.

    I walked up to both museums, and the line was down the street. This past allowed me to go straight up to a separate counter, not only saved me time, but made it a much more pleasant experience.!

    It is worth pointing out that in order to enter the Prado, you must exchange your ticket for a regular ticket at the ticket office. If there are limited opening hours at 1 of the 3 museums on the particular day for which the voucher is purchased, a reminder is most advisable.
  • 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 Including 7,500 paintings, 8,000 drawings, 4,800 prints, and 1,000 sculptures and other artworks and historical documents.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.
