Description

Discover Gaudí's world-famous houses in Barcelona. A walk full of anecdotes about these fairy-tale-like buildings with fast-track tickets to Casa Vicens and Casa Milà, Gaudí's first and last works.
Your Gaudí walking tour starts at the old village of Gràcia. There you will meet your English, Chinese, Japanese, or Korean-speaking guide before setting off to discover one of Barcelona’s best kept secrets until 2017: Casa Vicens. This was Gaudí’s first house as a young graduate, and was inspired by Oriental influences. The house, surrounded by luxurious gardens in the past, is now the ultimate hidden gem of the city.

Out of the upper Barcelona neighborhood you’ll walk down Passeig de Gracia and arrive to Casa Batlló, where you'll be able to appreciate the legendary facade and the dragon-like rooftop. This is probably the building where Gaudí let his imagination go completely, with many people saying it’s like being deep under the surface of the ocean. During the tour down Passeig de Gràcia you’ll discover some other amazing buildings from the same Modernista period.

Finally, arrive to Casa Milà where you can get ready to experience some deep immersion. Barcelonans hated it at the time that it was built, but these days "La Pedrera" is one of Barcelona’s must-see attractions. The house is like a fairy tale when you see it from outside, and even better when viewed from the interior. With a fast-track ticket included, you'll be able to skip the lines and explore the tenant's apartment, the inner courtyards, the attic and the rooftop. Casa Milà's rooftop is said to be the best terrace in Barcelona, not only because of its amazing views, but also because you'll be able to pose next to Gaudí's famous solider statues, one of the city icons.
