Palau Guell Tours

We started with Park Guell, which was a bit more of a climb than I thought it would be, (I have asthma) but worth every step! It is beautiful and beyond my imagination. Antoni Gaudi designs and his knowledge of what we can eco friendly today, he was so smart! I could have spent hours and hours there! Our guide was very good at keeping the tour together and interesting in every way, thank you! Then onto Sagrad Familia - I have seen pictures, but nothing can prepare you for the feeling you get when you walk inside!!!! Learning of the design technics and understanding the meaning behind everything is truly amazing. I am not a religious person, but I appreciated hearing about the reasons for each area! Thank you! It would be fabulous to go back when it is finished! A day well spent in Barcelona! Wish I have split it up, so I could have had more time in Park Guell!

Excellent way to view the best of the city in the most efficient time . Two routes approximately 2hours each . Red covering the South part of the city and the Blue the North . Highly recommend.24 hr/48hr options . We opted for the 48hr and did one route each day.

Great tour of Park Guell - absolutely recommend spending the additional money to have a guided tour. The park is beautiful but there is so much to learn from a guide; especially a guide as great as ours (Raul), who is a local. We left with a better understanding of the Park, Gaudi's work, and what the Park means to the people of Barcelona.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and a very good English speaker, easy to understand. The only downside, if there was one, it was supposed to be an English only tour and the tour guide spent 50% percent of her time speaking in Spanish for people in the tour that were not comfortable speaking English. I understand that I am in a foreign country, but this was advertised as English tour and I think she could have spent more time explaining things about the sites we visited if she didn't have to do the commentary in 2 languages. Thank you for the great experience.

Everything was perfect. The meeting point was exact. The tour guide was very friendly and explained a lot of things. The tour is split into two parts and there is no transport. You need to meet the guide and group in the stated meeting points. Skip the line privileges really helped a lot.

Our tour guide was amazing and knowledgeable. Park Güell is such a beautiful place; must have been even more beautiful before all the development around it. We met at the Gaudi Experience office/store two short blocks downhill from the entrance. Great souvenirs there. Staff all helpful.

First, these are two ‘must see’ places in Barcelona…but be ready for BIG crowds. As with many other reviews, we had problems finding our tour guide - the meeting point is by the subway exit but the guides do not have flags. Look for guides wearing name tags…but most importantly, note the name of the ‘Tour provider’ at the top of the page…ours was Amigo…I finally saw a tiny lady holding the small sign in her hands. Very knowledgeable tour guides but their Spanish accents might be difficult for some. Also, pay attention to the title at the top of the page…this tour did not include the tower as we had hoped (we paid 10Euros and barely made the last ride up at 11am). The tower is not all it’s made out to be. You get to see the city from numerous points, way up high, but they are tiny rooms with small caged windows. There are 400 stairs to go down…very small, winding stairwell. I highly recommend you arrange for transportation to Parc Guell. It is too far to walk(2.7 km)…all uphill!

This was an amazing tour! Our guide Ali (sp?), an art historian, was full of information about history, art, architecture, Barcelona, and more. The bus between sites was a huge plus. I don't think it would be possible to see all we did if we tried to do this on our own, and besides, I learned SO much by taking this tour. Highly recommend!
