Excellent collection of Magritte , Pollock , Ernst , etc. Only drawback is the small galleries , which make it difficult to enjoy the art because you find yourself being on top of or crowded by others.

Book a guided tour . This way you will learn interesting details about both the home of Peggy Guggenheim and the art of famous artists !

Emily Heyward

One of the most beautiful museums in the world. Amazing modern collection in a small number of galleries . And the views out the window are almost as good as the art .

Iris Pezzali

The Peggy Guggenheim Collection, while more of a depository for modern art , frequently has special exhibitions that show artists working in the later 20th century as well as today. Read more

The audio guide is a pricey €7, but offers excellent commentary from the director of the museum . It provides context and insight for the important items in the collection, and enhanced my visit.

20th and 21st century masterpieces all exhibited here. Great views . I highly recommend the audioguide

14€ per ticket, 7€ for audoguide, 5€ for mini guidebook, 14€ for the larger one. Anyway, you will see a good collection of modern art , especially for the cubist&surrealist era.

Ruth Szotten

Great escape. Interesting pieces but the sculpture garden 's tranquility really stood out for us. Cafe is over-priced

The most wonderful private collection I have ever experienced in an amazing ambient.
