Our take
If Picasso is why you're coming to Málaga, this is the tour: it ties together the Birthplace and the Picasso Museum with a guide who tells you about his childhood and family, which really helps when you look at the paintings. Tickets are included. For 2 people it's €166 per person, well above going on your own with tickets. With 4 it drops to €90 a head (€360 in total), and that's where it beats hiring a guide separately.

The experience
The route
It's a walk through Picasso's roots in Málaga. It starts at the Church of Santiago, where he was baptised, and continues to the Birthplace Museum, the building on Plaza de la Merced where he was born in 1881, built by master builder Diego Clavero.
It ends at the Picasso Museum Málaga, whose permanent collection traces his development as an artist. With the background on his family and early years, the museum reads very differently.
How it works
2.5 hours, private and on foot. Tickets to both museums are included. The price is per person, minimum 2 and maximum 9.
Who it's for
- Visitors drawn to Málaga by Picasso.
- Families and groups of 3 or 4, who pay much less per person.
- Anyone who'd rather see a museum with a guide than an audio guide.
Accessibility
The operator doesn't state whether the tour is wheelchair accessible; check before booking.
Cancellation policy
Free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before. No refund within 24 hours of the start.
