Every part of the palace makes us imagine what life is like for royalty. It transports you to that world and is so exciting that you want to find out more about this world that is so different from the lives of people who do not have the privilege of living that way. Everything is beautiful, and you are amazed by every detail of every place we enter.

We enjoyed the tour very much. We took line 2 (Modern Madrid) and then line 1 (Classic Madrid). We want to congratulate the manager Salvatore. He guided us wonderfully and had a great last minute idea: he suggested us to get off and take line 2 (the back bus) first; this way we could enjoy both lines in a row. Congratulations!
