Barcelona · MUSEUM VISITS
This is the shortlist to send a friend: 15 museum visits worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
A hands-on Barça exhibition near Camp Nou, with 360º audiovisuals, interactive team stories, and a look at the new Espai Barça.
“Excellent value for money took granddaughter for her 21st she is a football fanatic and plays football her self loads of information Excellent thank you”
Timed entry to Park Güell and the Gaudí House Museum in Barcelona, with mosaics, the Salamander, and big terrace views.
“As expected very hilly and long steep walk to the entrance, we visited at 6pm after a very busy day. I think for us a morning visit would have been better with fresher legs, we were also there on a very hot day.”
Skip the line at Barcelona’s Picasso Museum with a small-group guide, included headsets, and a clear chronological look at Picasso’s phases.
“The meeting point for the tour caused a lot of confusion as it does not start at the museum itself, it’s a little further along the road. Once this had been resolved, it was absolutely great. The guide was very knowledgable and took time to provide a lot of information to us. You are also allowed to carry on walking around the museum once the tour is over. I would recommend taking your own (plug in) headphones as the ones provided hurt our ears but this was a very minor issue!”
Moco Museum Barcelona mixes Banksy, Dalí, Warhol, Kaws, and digital art in a 16th-century palace in El Born for about an hour.
“Loved it! All the street art we loved locally is now being exhibited!”
Small-group Girona and Figueres day trip with hotel pickup from Barcelona, walking tours, and a guided Dalí Museum visit.
“This was a great tour. I really enjoyed the Dali Museum and Marcel made it special with his knowledge and explanations of the artwork. Girona was interesting and we learned a lot of the history there. There was a lot of walking but at a slow pace. I recommend this tour”

“Great tour and very knowledgeable guide Enrice (may be not correct spelling). On our way to, in between and back he gave us a lot of information about Dali, his whole life in every detail. It was like a college course on Dali personal and artistic life and his creations. Wether also was sunny. A great unforgettable tour!”
Skip-the-line access to the Fundació Joan Miró in calm Montjuïc, with major Miró works, Sert architecture, and rotating Espai 13 shows.
