Itinerary and highlights

Discover the beauty of Casa Milà, also known as La Pedrera, on a guided tour with skip the line access. Designed by Antoni Gaudí and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this modernist landmark is one of Barcelona’s must-see attractions.

Start your visit at the building’s flowing stone façade, with iron balconies that resemble underwater seaweed. Inside, your guide will lead you through a fully furnished early 20th-century apartment, offering a glimpse into how a bourgeois family once lived.

Explore the two stunning courtyards, the Patio de las Flores and the Patio de las Mariposas, each decorated with vivid colors and natural motifs. In the Whale Attic, walk beneath more than 270 arches that evoke the ribcage of a great sea creature.
