Very knowledgeable, patient and friendly guide. Museum very interesting and provided a new appreciationfor Picasso's works.. Some disappointment to see even one of Picasso's most famous pieces.

The guide was excellent, but the size of the group - 20+ - was too much. The rooms in the museum are small. There were other tours present plus individual patrons, so the spaces were very crowded making the exhibits difficult to see. Plus, just as added info, the museum only reflects Picasso's early years. It is really worth seeing though.

The guide was full of information about the "stories behind the paintings". It made it much more interesting than just looking at the paintings.

tour guide gave good information - adding depth to understanding the art
also, guide made sure we met in an area away from entrance in order to facilitate beginning of tour as a group.
museum was quite crowded at 3PM afternoon. perhaps a different time slot should be considered. After this tour- which featured Picasso's deconstruction of the famous painting by Velazquez- it was a treat to visit the actual "Las Meninas" at the Prado

Great tour to take, especially if you are a fan of Picasso. Alina made sure we were able to connect with our guide in the beginning and followed through till the end. Veronica who was our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Her passion for what she does came through from the beginning.

We had an exceptional guide who provided most helpful context around the many dimensions — and different eras — spanning Picasso’s life works. Would highly recommend this 90-min tour to understand the brilliance and contradiction from which Picasso created.

The background of Picasso was a surprise and very interesting. I have nothing more to say . This review requirement makes me want to trash the tour.

Informative and engaging presentation by our guide, Romina. She answered all questions knowledgeably and showed us her personal iPad with additional resources.
