Follow in Picasso’s footsteps as we explore the old town of Barcelona and delve into the world of the famous artist and his life as a young painter. We’ll discover the people and places that inspired his paintings and talk about the stories behind his artwork, from his very first masterpiece all the way through to his Cubist period, one of the most important art movements of all time. As well as Picasso, we’ll learn about the city’s rich 2000 year history and our artist’s contemporaries; Dali, Miro, and Gaudi. To round off our tour we’ll head to our private art hub, housed in a 19th-century modernist building, packed with work from some of the city’s most exciting emerging artists. We’ll share some drinks and snacks together and give you tips on great places to eat & drink, and off-the-beaten-track places to visit and things to do.

Inclusions: Alcoholic Beverages

Definitely the best tour I have ever been on. Katrina is so knowledgable and passionate about street art, which really made the tour a great experience. As someone fairly new to the street art scene, I really learned a lot! The fact that you get to meet the gallery owners and artists during the tour really makes the tour complete and impressive. This is something everyone should do on their Barcelona trip! I would put it way above all of the typical sites like Sagrada Familia etc.
