We saved this for our last day as it was a short walk across the bridge from where we were staying. It was very rainy so it was rather busy with people seeking refuge from the rain but we managed to see all of the collection which was really interesting and there are some lovely pieces. There were also some... More

There are so many reasons why the Peggy Guggenheim collections should be on your "must see" list in Venice. The location and grounds are gorgeous and the art is spectacular. However, this collection stands out because it is not just a museum. It shows one woman's interests, loves, and friendships, which shaped the history of modern art.

Actually I enjoyed more of the house and the story of Peggy Guggenheim that I heard when joining in a tour. She really had an interesting life. The house and the garden that is full of very interesting statues are lovely. As the weather was perfect I spent a lot of time outside the house. In front of the house... More

A fabulous collection of modern art, and a manageable size for those overwhelmed by other exhausting art tours. The outside sculpture gardens are a relaxing and welcome break,a literal breath of fresh air.

We really enjoyed this small collections of modern art - including pictures by Miro, Picasso, Dali, Klee, Pollock and much more. Visit if you like 20th century art and want a break from renaissance and rococo. The shop is great for jewellery and souvenirs.

The locale and the premises, particularly the gardens, are perfect for displaying examples of some of the best known 20th century artists, both european and american. The atmosphere is very relaxed, which is surprising. You can take photos of anything (no flash).

If you are lucky to avoid crowd at weekends and during holidays you can enjoy the amazing garden and special collection of most popular artists as Picasso, Dali, Pollock, Ernst, Miró, Magritte and many others.

There's always a bit of a crowd and the rooms are quite small, so best go first thing, buy ticket, and enjoy a coffee and croissant in the little cafe overlooking the garden, before entering the gallery proper. Wonderfully eclectic modernist art collection with an interesting history. Also steps down to a wide balcony beside the Canal Grande through the... More

Pretty tricky to find! Expensive entry, £16 each. Some famous artists work which is nice to see. Lovely gardens to relax in when sunny. But not that much to see really, can be visited in 1-1 1/2 hour.
