Private guided tour (our family of 5) very interesting by one of the most competent individuals. This museum is truly welcoming, open to nature, showcasing works from all eras. Even the children loved it.
Extremely knowledgeable and very accommodating. Superb guide
My teenage son and I had a great private tour with Veronica! Veronica brought the art to life and explained Miro’s life and all the characters who influenced him. Veronica also taught us how to interpret the symbols in Miro’s art. Highly recommend!
Laura was a wonderful guide! She was very knowledgeable about art and the history of Miro. Would book this tour again.
Laura was a wonderful guide, warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. She is evidently a magician as well, as it seemed as if she spent more time with us then she actually did, a testament to how much information she conveyed during our time at the museum. The museum is beautiful, the gift shop and bookstore are wonderful, and the cafe is also too notch. I recommend the Catalan Cod. Overall, the private tour is well worth your time and money. Ask for Laura, to be your guide.
Having a knowledgeable guide makes all the difference We were able to easily make our way through the gallery and bypass most of the crowds
Laura was awesome! Very informative, knowledgeable and passionate about the artist and the city. She was patient w us and gave us lots of insight.
I didn’t feel as tho I learned much from the guide….she repeated herself many many times but in doing so she didn’t impart knowledge to me. In fact, I wondered if she was not deeply familiar with Miro. Very expensive tour / not worth it
I am very sorry to hear that the guide wasn't prepared.She is a great professional and knows about Miro's work and life. We aim to provide the best possible service to all our customers, and we seem to fall short with yours. Please for further assistance write us. Thank you
Laura gave us an interesting, knowlegeable tour, explaining how history, cross-pollination and innovative artistic ideas motivated Miró's art. She was engaging, willing to go "off script" to answer our specific questions, and compressed a lot of information into a compact tour. Highly recommended!!
Laura was a wonderful tour guide! Fluent in English, went at our pace. Extremely knowledgeable about Miró, his art and him personally. We had the fabulous experience of the Miro-Picasso exhibition, which was wonderful, and Laura provided amazing context of their history and lifelong friendship. Highly recommend this museum and Laura as guide!
