Description

Did you know that Picasso was Director of the Prado Museum in a very short way? In fact, at the Picasso Museum in Barcelona you will find not a few "copies" of Las Meninas. Can there be a better way than knowing the artist from Malaga than knowing Velázquez, the great teacher whom the genius of the 20th century admired so much? We propose this tour as a simple and fun way to explore the history of painting.

Amazing tour!

Paula was a great tour guide. We did the Spanish private tour of both El Prado and Reina Sofia. She was on time, friendly, funny, and super knowledgeable when it came to history and art. Must do tour even if you already know both museums.

Operator response

Yes, she is! Paula is an amazing tour guide and we love to have her as part of our crew. Thank you, Gina, come back soon!

Two museums, no fuss

So glad we booked this! Allowed our jet lagged family of four (including two teens) to skip VERY long lines at both museums and experience the highlights of their large collections with a thorough explanation of the context. Highly recommend. Maria was wonderful!

Operator response

Private tour is the best way to visit!

Our guide, Josemi, was fantastic! Incredibly knowledgeable. Made the visit very interesting. He knew so much about art and history.

Operator response

We are glad you liked the tour but, honestly, I do not think this review is about us. Therefor, we are telling tripadvisor so our mates receives their well deserved review. Thank you!
