About this activity

The Golden Triangle Art Pass hands you Madrid's legendary trio — the Prado, the Reina Sofía and the Thyssen-Bornemisza — on a single ticket, with an audio guide that steers you straight to the masterpieces that matter. Stand before Velázquez's Las Meninas, Picasso's Guernica and Van Gogh in person.

Your pass covers one visit to the permanent collection of each museum, valid for a full year, so you choose the order and the days. Most travelers give the Prado a half-day — Spain's crown jewel of Velázquez, Goya and El Greco — then pair the Thyssen-Bornemisza, with its seven-century sweep from Renaissance portraits to Van Gogh and Pop Art, with the Reina Sofía, where Picasso's Guernica anchors a powerhouse collection of Dalí and Miró.

This also includes the audio guide to the highlights — included across all three museums, guiding you to the must-see masterpieces and the stories behind them.

What to expect

5 hours – 7 hours3 stopsShared tourSkip the lineMax 20 travellers
  1. 2 hours 30 minAdmission included

    At the Prado, walk through European painting at its peak. Step into Spain's most celebrated museum and stand face-to-face with face-to-face with Velázquez's Las Meninas and feel why it's called the greatest painting in Western art, its gaze following you across the gallery. You'll stand quietly before Goya's Black Paintings, their darkness still startling two centuries on, and trace the drama of his The Third of May 1808. Turn a corner and Bosch's The Garden of Earthly Delights unfolds in dizzying detail, while El Greco, Titian and Rubens line the halls around you.

  2. Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia

    Calle de Santa Isabel 52, Madrid, 28012, Spain

    2 hours 30 minAdmission included

    At the Reina Sofía, experience modern Spain through the art that shaped it. Everyone comes for one painting, and when you finally stand before Picasso's Guernica — vast and raw across an entire wall — you'll understand why no reproduction comes close. wander into the surreal worlds of Salvador Dalí, the bright playfulness of Joan Miró, and thought-provoking modern exhibitions that change through the year. Housed in a former hospital with a sleek glass extension, the Reina Sofía is as much about how art makes you feel as what it depicts.

  3. 2 hoursAdmission included

    At the Thyssen-Bornemisza, travel seven centuries in a single afternoon. One of the greatest private collections ever assembled takes you from glowing Renaissance portraits through to the room everyone remembers — Monet, Degas, Renoir and Van Gogh — before finishing among Picasso, Hopper and Lichtenstein. Compact, beautifully arranged and never overwhelming, it's the easiest of the three to savour.
