It was a nice exhibition with a good overview of Spanish painters. Unfortunately, we still had to join the line for the box office. There was no skip the line option.

Thanks a lot dear Headout Customer Support Team. My husband and I love visiting places and appreciate art. As an artist myself I like seeing other artists work and how did or how they have evolved through their careers. To book tickets in advance is a relief for us, because it saves us time to get an easier access to museums, galleries, theatres, entertainment, etc. We have enjoyed our experience with Headout and we recommend you to use it. Thanks again. Ariel Chavarro Avila www.arielchavarroavila.com

A fine collection, with excellent descriptions of what was being viewed. The special exhibition of Farah Astassi was excellent as well.

I booked the ticket online and therefore I could enter the museum very quickly, without waiting time. The museum is very informative, giving many interesting informations about Picasso's life and work. Besides the garden of the museums cafe offers a nice place to have a breake and reflect about the impressions inside the museum. Very nice location.

Tout c'est très bien passé et la découverte des lieux était magnifiques. Dommage que la visite n'était pas proposée en français. Autrement les guides étaient très agréable.

My experience has been excellent except for the part of the Amazon area, which I found a bit simple, but otherwise very good.
