Online tickets were easy to use and staff was very professional. Picasso's early life was interesting and his first home was nice to see. Also information of his later life.

Tickets were easily recognizable for museum staff. We noticed that people in front of us in the line often had problems. The museum was easily accessible and the route was clearly marked. A wonderful overview of Picasso's work and sources of inspiration. You were guided through his work in a beautifully structured way 👍
