Tour Route

Passeig de Gracia

This broad elegant avenue was built for and by the wealthy Barcelonians and they have never left; luxury and design shops line the street along with major banks and the stock exchange.

Architectural details include modernist lampposts and Gaudis tiles for pavements and a myriad of grand buildings including two of Gauds houses:

Park Guell

The now familiar mixture of highly advanced technical engineering and fantasy decoration is epitomized by the famous mosaic dragon or salamander, which is also an overflow for the underground water cistern, and the curved mosaic bench around the square which is at once a seat, a balcony and a wonderful piece of art. It was listed as World Heritage by UNESCO in 1984.

Sagrada Familia

The Gaud Tour we have kept the best to the last so tour members who so wish can stay on and savour the building for as long as they like, you can go up the towers by elevator, and visit the crypt and museum and compare the contrasting styles of the Birth and Passion facades.
