What to expect

A quiet morning in Madrid is the perfect backdrop for a visit to the Thyssen Museum, and this exclusive National Geographic Day Tour gets you in like a VIP. With early access before the main crowds arrive, you’ll get to leaf through this renowned collection, a key gem in Madrid’s Golden Triangle of Art. After delving into over 1,000 years of art history with your art historian guide, you’ll finish the experience with a traditional city-style breakfast.

Side by side with an expert art historian, you’ll journey through the Thyssen’s vast collection, housing art from the Renaissance to modernism, and everything in between. Along the way, your guide will reveal stories and insider details to the pieces, giving you the key to understanding what makes them so special. Big names in the art world make their appearance too, including Marc Chagall with his dreamlike visions and Van Gogh’s emotional landscapes. And don’t miss masterpieces by Caravaggio, Cézanne, and Dalì – they’re all part of this ever-expanding collection.

After strolling through the museum’s light-filled, spacious galleries, you’ll be treated to a traditional Madrilenain breakfast in the on-site cafeteria. Sip on freshly brewed coffee, tuck into warm churros, and enjoy lively conversation with fellow art enthusiasts. This thoughtfully designed space allows you to unwind, just as memorable as the artwork you’ve just experienced, leaving you refreshed and ready to explore more of Madrid.
