The museum was impressive, but the best part was the guide, Belén, who was very attentive and did an excellent job explaining the history of the painters and the timeline!

Our guide, Gabi, was very warm, welcoming and knowledgeble. She was a delight to listen to (excellent English) as we made our way through the Reina Sofia. She paced the tour perfectly, giving us a nice amount of time to learn about Guernica at the end.
