This was an awesome tour. I was lucky enough to be the only one on the tour for the time I selected. I had a one on one experience and learned so much! Sergei is so knowledgeable and entertaining. This is a great way to learn more about the history of Barcelona’s famous architecture.


Highlights

Walk through Barcelona's elegant Eixample district on a guided tour of Antoni Gaudí's houses and the city's Modernisme architecture. Starting at Casa Calvet and following Passeig de Gràcia to Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, you see each building from the outside while your guide explains the symbols and stories behind it. You also learn how Gaudí grew from a young architect into a world-famous icon, and what Barcelona was like in the Modernisme era. Group tours run in English, French or Italian.


Program

 

Meet near Plaça de Catalunya
and walk through Gaudí's best-known buildings

 

This is a guided walking tour of about 2 hours through the Eixample district. You see Casa Calvet, Casa Batlló and Casa Milà from the outside while your guide shares the history and architecture behind them. Choose a group tour in English, French or Italian.

 

 

See where Gaudí's style began at Casa Calvet

 

 

The story starts at Casa Calvet, one of Gaudí's early works. You learn how his personal style first appeared within an elegant, refined design.

 

Your guide also talks about the early career of the young architect and the creative vision that would soon change Barcelona.

 

 

Stroll along Passeig de Gràcia, lined with Modernisme mansions

 

 

During the Modernisme era, Barcelona's wealthiest families competed to build the city's most spectacular houses along this street. Walk one of Europe's most beautiful avenues and hear about the history, architecture and people of that time.

 

 

Finish at Casa Batlló and Casa Milà

 

 

At Casa Batlló, your guide explains the symbols, hidden meanings and legends in its colorful facade and why it is regarded as one of Gaudí's masterpieces.

 

The tour ends at Casa Milà - La Pedrera. You hear why its flowing forms and innovative design shocked Barcelona society when it was first revealed, and why it still inspires architects and visitors today.
