Private city tourBarcelona: Gaudí & Gothic Quarter Private Tour
7h, from 07:00
Up to 16 people
Your Barcelona hotel
Free cancellation, 24h
Two Barcelonas in seven hours: the medieval one you walk, and the one a single architect invented and the city is still finishing.
The day
Gaudí's buildings are spread across the city and the Gothic Quarter is only walkable. That is exactly the shape a car and a guide solve.
07:00
Your hotel
Collected from the door. Barcelona hotels and apartments anywhere in the city are fine.
07:30
The Gothic Quarter
On foot with your guide: the cathedral, the Roman wall still built into the houses, and the squares you would walk past without being told what they are.
09:30
Park Güell
A failed housing development that became the best park in the city: the mosaic bench, the hypostyle hall, and the view back over everything.
11:00
The Sagrada Familia
A basilica begun in 1882 and still unfinished, which Gaudí knew he would never see completed. The Nativity facade is his; the Passion facade is not, and the difference is the argument.
Entrance not included
12:45
Passeig de Gràcia
Casa Batlló and La Pedrera on the same boulevard, a few blocks apart, by the same man. Nowhere else is modernisme this concentrated.
14:00
Back where you want to be
Your hotel, the Barceloneta, or wherever you are eating.
