Great to be able to pre book and avoid queuing to get into museum. Enjoyed seeing all of the artwork and sculptures in an airy space and being able to pop in and out at leisure if refreshments needed. Finding actual museum quite straightforward-we took traggetto/ferry boat(gondola) from San Marco which was very reasonably priced, ecological and enjoyable and very quick. Good contrast to be seeing contemporary art after so much renaissance in other museums. Would highly recommend.

Showing up at 11 there was a short line to retrieve the ticket but nothing big. There was the option to purchase an audio guide for €7 which I thought was a bit steep, especially since it was only for the permanent collection. There are quite a few famous painters portrayed, such as Dali and Pollack. We did get a bit tired of the prevalence of Max Ernst, as he featured in the temporary collection as well as in the main collection. In any case, fans of his would find it very engaging.

A little confusing to both get into and navigate but certainly nothing insurmountable. Interesting collections. Absolutely get an advance ticket. We did and still waited some in line at 10am (opening time). The line splits inside, however, and is much quicker for advance ticket holders. If you enjoy modern art you will enjoy the Guggenheim.
