While no longer the official residence of the Spanish monarchy, the palace hosts major royal receptions. The guided tour includes highlights such as the Plaza de Armas, Grand Staircase, King Charles III's apartments, the Queen's apartments, the banquet hall, the royal chapel, and the throne and crown rooms.

Afterward, a bus will take you to the Prado Museum. The current exhibition showcases over 1,000 works from four centuries, featuring masterpieces by Velázquez, Goya, Sorolla, El Greco, and Bosch.
