Gaudi is an intrinsic part of Barcelona, and this tour is a great way to learn about Gaudi and the city. Joan, our guide, is an architect and an educator, and it showed in his wonderful ability to share his wide-ranging knowledge. The Gaudi walk took us by three Gaudi buildings, as Joan told us about the development of Barcelona, modernism, and the buildings themselves, with his folder of laminated maps to make things clearer. You don't go inside the buildings during the tour, and if you're interested in art and architecture you should seriously consider a visit to Casa Batllo and/or Casa Mila (La Pedrera), in addition to the must-see Segrada Familia. This tour deserves to be more popular, even if it does lose some of its comfortable intimacy...

I am so glad we signed up for this tour. Our guide, Joan, was so knowledgeable. An architect himself, he was extremely informative. He gave us background on the architectural and political history of Barcelona, which set the stage for Gaudi to be able to showcase his visionary talents. It really made looking at these buildings much more interesting to see them in the context of the recent history of Barcelona. Aside from eating, which is pretty awesome in Barcelona, this was one of the highlights of the trip. We had lots of questions and Joan was great about answering all of them, with the passion he has for the city and for the buildings
. We also got to see interesting little areas which we would never have known about. All in all, I highly recommend this walking tour. You won't regret a minute of it!

This was one of the best things I did on my trip to Barcelona, aside from eat. My wife is an interior designer and is keenly interested in architecture -- whereas I don't know much about architecture but enjoyed it just as much. It's a great walk through a beautiful part of the city and it's n extremely interesting, in-depth view of the city of Barcelona and Gaudi specifically. Our guide was Martina, who was awesome.
