The park itself is absolutely fascinating, ingenious and beautiful! Our guide, Raoul, was excellent.. he made it fun and interesting the way he brought his childhood experiences there before the Olympics into the presentation of the park. Everything went smoothly and worked well.

The fact that we had a knowledgeable guide, Tony, who gave us lots of information about the place and it's history. He was very kind and patient with us, taking pictures. We also apprecitated the fact that he had a microphone and we had earphones, so we could clearly hear what he was saying even if we weren't very close to him.

Beautiful and interesting! The guided tour was informative and explained much of the intricacies of Gaudi's work and designs of the park.

Your experience

Antoni Gaudi's masterpiece

After you meet your guide at the designated meeting point, you will receive help to access the park. Once you enter, your guide will show you the highlights of the park. The first architectural element of the park that you will see is the two buildings on either side of the gates. The one on the left served as a concierge, with a waiting room and a telephone booth, and the one on the right was the residence of the doorman, hence its name Casa del Guarda, which today is part of the MUHBA (Museum of Barcelona History).

An architectural sight to behold

The next highlight of the park will be the staircase that leads one from the entrance to the main area. After the staircase, you will head to the Hypostyle Room, a structure meant to resemble a forest and a space that is supported by 86 Doric columns. The Hypostyle Room supports the Greek Theatre on its roof. From the Greek Theatre, you will be able to soak in panoramic views of Barcelona, and the Sagrada Familia in the distance.
