Overview

Journey through Picasso’s life in Barcelona to learn how the city shaped his art. We’ll visit Els Quatre Gats Restaurant, once a tavern and hangout for Picasso and his friends. This was the first place he exhibited his genius.

As we explore Picasso’s Barcelona, we’ll visit other sites that inspired or hosted his early works. Hear the story of the women behind “Les Demoiselles d'Avinyó.” See the former Fine Arts Academy where he studied. At the Sala Parès, a former paint shop where he displayed his art, we may even step inside to see how it has evolved into a gallery, hosting very different work now than in Picasso’s day.

At the close, your guide leads you down the picturesque Carrer Montcada. This medieval street houses the Picasso Museum, where you’ll continue inside with your skip-the-line ticket. If you’ve selected the upgrade, your guide will lead you on a tour of the museum’s most significant pieces, sharing the secrets behind the many paintings, sketches, and sculptures.
