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.

A visit to the Royal Palace of Madrid is one of those moments when you realize that architecture can be an emotion. The very first look at its magnificent façade makes you feel as if you’ve stepped into another era, a world where grandeur was expected and aesthetics were a way of life. The Royal Palace is not just a tourist attraction — it is an impressive lesson in history, art, and mystical beauty. If there is one place in Madrid you truly should not miss, it is this one.

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

The visit went very well. It was crowded, lots of groups, but that's the price you have to pay to admire this palace. The staff are very welcoming.
