The tour involves a lot of walking so wear good walking shoes. The architecture is amazing and you see it from the outside, inside and even on top in the case of the last house, which is more of an apartment or condominium building.
Informative experience! This small group allowed for personalized tour and discussion. Mario was friendly and knowledgeable and a nice guy. Would recommend this to anyone who wants a nice tour of the Gaudi homes. Please take consider that there is a 30 minute walk between Gaudi houses of 1 and 2. Enjoyed and took away some great information.
This tour was great. Our Tour Guide(Jekaterina) was super friendly and knowledgeable. She answered all our questions and also gave us some inside tips during this tour. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who will like to know more about Gaudi and his work.
If you can take the private tour, do it! We had an amazing guide, she was well versed in the Sagrada Família and was just a pure joy to be around! Such an awesome experience!
We were disappointed! In fact maybe some money back. We did not get to see all 3 houses because the last one was being used for a private event. We did not even go with the guide to just see the outside.!
Haley, our tour guide did an excellent job explaining in depth the 3 houses.
To fully appreciate Gaudi's architecture, a visitor should go inside the structures and learn about their history and the decisions that resulted in the final designs. Our guide Zoe did an excellent job of conveying information concisely and making good use of time to try to ensure we would get the most out of the experience. The tour was well worth the price.
A great tour. Learn a lot about all of the buildings and we were able to go inside of them. The guide was knowledgeable and very nice!
The Gaudi houses were wonderful and the guide was very knowledgeable. Highly recommended!! Great!!!!!!!!
What a fantastic experience! Haley, our guide, was thorough, extremely informative, and her English was very easy to understand. She accommodated those in the group who needed more time but kept us moving. We had plenty of time in each of the three amazing houses, and learned a lot about Gaudi’s life. An added bonus: she recommended a fantastic tapas place to grab lunch when we finished. Highly recommend!
