Description
This walking tour takes you through the architectural wonders of Barcelona, home to the Modernist and Art Nouveau movements.
Led by Guille Genestar, a local expert, you’ll uncover the rich history behind some of the city’s most famous landmarks.
Starting at Plaça de Catalunya, you’ll traverse Passeig de Gràcia, one of Barcelona’s most elegant streets, to admire Antoni Gaudi’s masterpieces such as La Pedrera-Casa Milà and Casa Batlló.
Along the way, Guille will introduce you to the work of other key architects like Domenech i Montaner and Puig i Cadafalch.
As you walk through the Eixample and Gracia districts, you’ll see how Ildefons Cerda’s innovative city grid reshaped urban living in Barcelona.
Highlights include the neo-medieval stone balcony of Casa Amatller and the breathtaking details of La Sagrada Família, Gaudi’s world-renowned (and still unfinished) basilica.
You’ll also gain insight into local life, history, and the blend of modernity and tradition that makes Barcelona so unique.

The tour author is knowledgeable but not as personable or interesting as other guides I’ve used on voice map

On the whole, an excellent tour. The narrator is engaging and informative, and offers stories that you might not get from a guidebook. Highly recommended.
