Itinerary and highlights

With tall spires that seem to defy gravity, countless figures from both the human and natural world, the facades of Gaudí’s most ambitious project impressive and astound millions of visitors per year. Today, it’s the most visited building in Spain. Your English-speaking local guide, an expert in all things Gaudí, will share insider stories and anecdotes throughout your tour, truly bringing this iconic building to life.

With “skip the line” access you will be whisked past the long entrance lines and straight into the heart of the Basilica. You’ll feel as though you have stepped into an alternate universe. Step through a heavy set of doors covered in hand-carved vines and find yourself beneath rows and rows of tree-like pillars that seem to reach up all the way to the heavens. Construction is famously ongoing and not estimated to be completed until 2026, and witnessing the this work-in-progress make us feel like we're part of history in the making.

Meet your guide at Park Güell, another of Gaudí’s most famous works.

The architectural design of Park Güell is perhaps the truest testament to Gaudí’s love of and obsession with nature. The bright colors of his tile mosaics cover the walls, ceilings, and benches, with the well-recognized “El Drac” lizard statue being a must-have photo for any visitor.

Marvel at the history and details of this wondrous outdoor masterpiece with your guide, then enjoy free time to take in the intricate designs and spectacular panoramic views of Barcelona on your own pace.
