Full description

Discover Gaudí's masterpieces with an expert local guide on a small-group tour that suits your travel style—either in half a day or just 3.5 hours. If you select the Half-Day Gaudí Tour at time of booking, choose when you'd like to experience a complete tour of Gaudí's finest works: morning or afternoon. No matter whether you choose the morning or afternoon half-day tour, you'll see Gaudí's three famous residential houses and enter one of them, visit Park Güell, and marvel at La Sagrada Família. If you prefer a shorter tour, select the Complete Gaudí Express option, where you will visit Casa Battló and La Sagrada Família (Park Güell is not included). Long lines to get into these attractions are common, but with pre-reserved entrance to each, you’ll sail straight inside. A carefully planned itinerary combining walking, public transportation, and one private transfer means you’ll cover a lot of ground in a short period of time.
Stop At: Casa Amatller
Description: Meet your guide and small group of travelers on the lively Passeig de Gracia outside Casa Amatller, an excellent example of Catalan modernism and a great introduction to the day's venture into modernist architecture pioneered by Antoni Gaudí.
Admission: Pass by without stopping
Time: 30 minutes

Stop At: Casa Batlló, Passeig de Gracia, 43, 08007 Barcelona Spain  
Description: Your morning starts at Casa Batlló. Those joining the morning tour will enter and go straight to the most iconic rooms. Your guide will show you the tiny details that make this house so fascinating; from breathing ‘gills’ to the clever play of light in the building’s tiles. As Casa Batlló is overwhelmed with crowds by the time the afternoon starts, those on the afternoon tour will stop outside for commentary from their guide and will visit another equally interesting Gaudí house later in the tour. 
Admission: Included  
Time: 1 hour    

 Stop At: Casa Milà, Passeig de Gracia, 92, 08008 Barcelona Spain  
Description: Then it’s on to Casa Milà, where you’ll learn how this austere building came by the nickname “Stone Quarry.”  
Admission: Pass without stopping  
Time: 30 minutes     

Stop At: Casa Vicens, Carrer de les Carolines, 20-26, 08012 Barcelona Spain  
Description: If time allows, the morning tour will pass by the colorful Casa Vicens. Then meet your private transfer and stop by the first major work Gaudí ever designed, a rarely visited gem. Those on the afternoon tour will enter Casa Vicens for a 45 minute guided visit. 
Admission: Pass without stopping  
Time: 25 minutes     

Stop At: Park Guell, Carrer Gran Vista 127, 8032 Barcelona Spain  Description: From there, it’s off to Park Guell. Part fanciful explosion of color, part thoughtful study of organic forms, it is a perfect reflection of the natural world. Since this became a ticketed site a few years ago, entrance lines have become extremely long – so it’s a good thing you have skip-the-line access. If you select the Complete Gaudí Express option, Park Guell is not included.
Admission: Included  
Time: 1 hour 

Stop At: Barri de Gracia
Description: Board a private, air-conditioned minibus for a brief transfer between Park Guell and La Sagrada Familia. If you select the Complete Gaudí Express option, your tour includes a short Metro ride to  La Sagrada Familia.
Admission: Included
Time: 30 minutes

Stop At: L'Eixample District 
Description: Enjoy a short break to grab a coffee or snack. Although this is not included in the tour, your guide will give you recommendations on where to go.  If you select the Complete Gaudí Express option, your tour does not include a short break.
Admission: Not included
Time: 20 minutes   

Stop At: Basilica de la Sagrada Familia, Carrer de Mallorca, 401, 08013 Barcelona Spain  
Description: Finally, you’ll end at Gaudí’s most iconic work: the one and only Sagrada Família. You’ll spend a full hour exploring the church itself, then, unlike most tours, you will go down into the museum to see some of the architect's drawings, models, and calculations, plus a clear view of his tomb.  
Admission: Included  
Time: 1 hour and 15 minutes
