80 reviews

Get ready to discover one of the most impressive royal palaces in Europe! The Royal Palace of Madrid was once the official residence of the Spanish royal family and is still used today for official receptions, ceremonies, and events. The palace is also known as Palacio de Oriente, due to its proximity to Plaza de Oriente, located on the eastern side of the palace.

Choose the experience that best suits you. With the guided tour option, enjoy skip-the-line access and explore the highlights of the palace accompanied by a professional guide. Discover its grand and beautifully preserved State Rooms, the Royal Armoury with its world-famous collection, and the Royal Pharmacy, featuring hundreds of bottles in different shapes and sizes that will take you back in time.

Alternatively, choose the self-guided option, which includes your entrance ticket and an audio guide that you can download directly to your phone, allowing you to explore the palace at your own pace. You can stay inside and discover its magnificent rooms, architecture, royal collections, and history for as long as you wish.

Whether you prefer to explore with a professional guide or at your own pace with an audio guide, this is a unique opportunity to admire the impressive architecture of the Royal Palace, discover the lifestyle of the Spanish monarchy, and learn more about Spain's history.
