Private Salvador Dali Museum Tour From Barcelona
EXCLUSIVE DALI MUSEUM DAY TRIP TO FIGUERES
Dive into the World of Surrealism
Does Salvador Dali fascinate you and want to learn more about it? You’ve heard there’s very little information inside the museum (there are no audioguides, for instance) and fear going all the way there just not to get it? Want to skip the long lines that are usually formed in the high season? Or maybe don’t feel confident taking the train there?
The Dali Theater Museum is located about 1.5 hours drive from Barcelona in the artist’s hometown: Figueres (Spain). He totally transformed the ruins of the old local theater into a wonderful museum that is designed to surprise you every second. However, there’s lots of the artwork there that hide secrets hard to notice unless someone tells you, and other that just don’t seem to make sense… until someone reveals you how clever they are!
With our private tour, your guide will lead you into Salvador Dali’s always shocking and thought-provoking world. Your vision of his works will change for ever after this Barcelona Dali private tour!
SOME PIECES SEEN IN THIS DALI TOUR FROM BARCELONA:

REVIEWS FROM TRAVELERS LIKE YOU:
TAILOR THIS DALI DAY TRIP TO YOUR UNIQUE NEEDS
This tour is great for people interested in art, museum lovers and anyone curious to learn more about Salvador Dali.
If you are traveling with kids you need to know that the museum feels a bit like a fun-fair, so it’s relatively child friendly however there’s some sex-related content (that the guide can try to point to the adults only). Make sure to bring snacks for them, since this tour does not include a lunch stop and they might get hungry before getting back to Barcelona.
If you have walking issues, please take into account that the visit of the museum involves short flights of stairs: there are no elevators and it’s not adapted to wheelchairs.
If someone in your party isn’t too fond of Dali, be sure that this day trip won’t leave them indifferent either. They might even get a new respect for the artist, after all.
