Overview of your Barcelona tour

I am an Art Historian and I greatly enjoy pointing out and explaining Modernism, the most representative architectural style of my city. This tour is an approach to the genius of Antoni Gaudi, Barcelona's most famous and brilliant architect. We will visit inside the Sagrada Familia church, consider the symbol of Barcelona all over the world, still a work in progress. Interior and exterior visit. Tickets availability permitting, we could step inside Casa Mila (La Pedrera), recreated with period furniture and every-day items of the Modernist period which will allow you to have a pretty clear idea of the living conditions of a wealthy family one hundred years ago.

We greatly enjoyed our tour with Gloria. Not only was she tremendously knowledgeable, but she was also very engaging and friendly. We did with Gloria two tours: one around the gothic quarter quarters and in Picasso museum, and the other in park Guell and Sagrada Familia and enjoyed both. Highly recommend.
