The guide, Pilar, was passionate and informative. We really enjoyed the history about the city, and the background about Picasso. This was a worthwhile tour, even after already being in the city for a few days.

We had paper confirmation for the 6th however the museum did not have us down for the 6th. We had to change our entire itinerary because they had us for the 8th

This is the first tour of many we booked with Viator that was disappointing. Not sure how it happened but we were booked with a French guide. When I called to change to English (we do not speak French) we were told we could not change. I asked to meet at the museum to get our entrance tickets because we did not want to take a tour in a language we would not understand, we were told that is not possible. So we wasted our money on this tour and bought our own museum tickets. This has been our only issue with the tours we booked.

Loved this museum of Picasso’s work from childhood through his last paintings. Our guide was very knowledgeable and easy to understand!

Charles_S

Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and made sure the group stayed together. Walking around the gothic district and through the Picasso museum were wonderful because she shared so much of her knowledge.

We never made it to this tour. We tried to change the date but had no luck. I’m sorry we missed it. I was told to change the date to go to the visitor area when we arrived. There was no availability.

Our guide, Mark was very knowledgeable and easy to follow. We learned lots and thoroughly enjoyed our time and the amazing art!

Danielle was an excellent guide. We never would have had time to learn as much about Picasso’s time in Barcelona and connection with the city on our own. Her tour of the museum was thorough and interesting. We got a real sense of his evolution as an artist and the significance of some of his paintings. We loved walking through the old city. My husband even danced a little swing in the square with our guide. Thanks for a memorable tour.

Friendly. Informative. Getting. Whine the placards. Our guide helped us see Barcelona through picasso’s eyes as a youth and gave us insights in the young budding artist’s process.
