Discover Gaudi’s Masterpieces, one of the must things to do in Barcelona

Gaudi Tour – Full Day

The best that Barcelona has to offer is, of course, Gaudí, and the Sagrada Família is the #1 highlight. We can visit just the Basilica or include the Towers for a stunning view.

Other main attractions designed by Gaudí include Park Güell, La Pedrera (also known as Casa Milà), and Casa Batlló. In this full-day tour, you can visit all of them.

You also have the option to personalize your tour based on your interests. We can combine some of Gaudí’s buildings with other parts of the city, like the Old Town, or visit Gaudí along with the Palau de la Música. Please send us your preferred combination, and we’ll let you know if it’s doable!

During the visit, you’ll have time for lunch. The cost of lunch isn’t included, and since your guide will be with you during this time, you’ll cover their lunch as well. If you have any food preferences or allergies, just let us know so we can accommodate you!

Amazing stories and narrative - and generally such a great teacher, not just a guide. He adapted and adopted to what we were interested in and yet didn't let us gloss over some incredible parts of Gaudi's impact on the built environment (and humanity for that matter). Top notch. If you only do one organized tour while traveling, let it be Javier.

 Verified Park Guell and Sagrada Família
Six of us enjoyed a half day tour with Javier to Park Guell, Sagrada Familia, and the exteriors of Casa Batllo and casa Mila. Javier was so informative and a lot of fun! He started the tour with a brief history of the city to give us a better understanding of the sites we were about to see. His firsthand knowledge of Sagrada Familia stems from working there when the interior was being built in 2000. We opted for a private vehicle, which I believe made a big difference in the enjoyment of our day since we did not have to take two taxis every time we moved locations. The driver was waiting with an air-conditioned van every time we needed it along with cold water! I highly recommend Javier👍🏼💯

 Verified If you do one thing, book Javier as your guide in Barcelona!
If you are going to Barcelona and want to learn about Gaudi - then you need to book Javier. To say he is an expert is an understatement. Javier has made it his life's quest to learn about Gaudi and share it with others. Javier's tour was the first thing we booked when we planned our trip to Barcelona and we were NOT disappointed. He creates a magical experience. It was the first time in my life I felt like I understood what an artist was trying to do, say, or accomplish. Seeing La Sagrada Familia would not have been the same without Javier. My only regret was not booking the full day tour. If we go back to Barcelona, Javier will be the first thing I book!

Javier was amazing! It was like touring Barcelona with a good friend who happened to be an expert on all things Gaudi, Sagrada Familia and Barcelona in general. He was great for our teenage kids as well as the adults. I felt we could have typed with him for several days and still felt there was more to learn and enjoy.

 Verified Javier unlocks the magic
Javier made Barcelona feel like home. You can enjoy Barcelona on your own because it's an amazing city, but if you want to make it an absolutely unforgettable experience — Javier unlocks the magic.

 Verified The Best of 4 Countries
Of all the tours we did in four different countries over two weeks Javier was our favorite. He was energetic, knowledgeable, well connected to eliminate lines and did not spend time on unimportant facts but rather provided insights that made our visit memorable and interesting. Thanks Javi for an amazing day! It was the best way to start our vacation.

My goodness. We had the best tour imaginable with Javier! His knowledge of the history and architecture of La Sagrada Família and Gaudi is incredible. There is so much detail and imagery in the building that Javier presents in an extremely accessible way. Please book a tour with him. You won’t regret it!!

 Verified Best Tour in Barcelona!
We had the most amazing time with Javier! We toured Park Güell and the Sagrada Familia, and he was an incredible guide! He was so knowledgeable about all of the history and details of both visits, and we were so grateful to learn so much! He was incredibly kind and flexible and had lots of great recommendations and insights! He also took lots of great pictures of our group, and we will have the best memories of this trip. Our trip to Barcelona wouldn't have been the same without him! We would highly, highly recommend this private tour to anyone coming to Barcelona! Thank you, Javier!!
