About this tour

We turned the halls of old master painting into a real adventure — with secrets, riddles and a little magic.

This is not simply a tour: it is a first living encounter with great art that a child will genuinely understand and remember.
Because they do more than listen — they play, search, find and are surprised. And that is exactly how a love of beautiful things begins.

What you will see

You will meet the Prado's greatest masterpieces — from Velázquez's enigmatic infanta to Goya's dramatic scenes.
The tour covers 8–10 key rooms where the children work through tasks while the grown-ups can look at the paintings in peace — or watch the interest kindle in a child's eyes.

What you will learn

  • Who the infantas were, and why their faces are so solemn
  • How a single painting can tell a whole story
  • Why painters hinted at a king's character in his portrait
  • What the objects hidden in the paintings stand for
  • And why children sometimes understand art more deeply than adults

Who it suits

For little ones from 5 — a quest-game of searching and riddles
For teenagers — a chance to be independent, involved, and to widen their horizons
For parents — an easy, unforced way to bring a child to beautiful things
And a rare moment when you can simply relax and enjoy a museum without a constant “Mum, I'm bored”. Your child will be absorbed in an interesting task and will not ask to leave after ten minutes.

Will the parents find it interesting?

Yes. You will get to look at the paintings afresh yourself — through a child's questions and observations.
The quest format avoids an overload of information and turns a visit to the Prado into a living family memory rather than a duty.
