Hoogtepunten

See the city through the eyes of an architect who works here and knows it inside and out. This outdoor Barcelona walking tour covers the city’s finest Modernist and Art Nouveau treasures and even some hidden gems you won’t want to miss. Along the way, your expert guide points out the unexpected details and shares insider stories to make each design come alive. Linger beneath the sculpted façades of the Sagrada Família as your guide deciphers their meaning. Learn how the remarkable Sant Pau Recinte Modernista, a 27-building masterpiece by the inimitable Lluís Domènech i Montaner, became the world’s largest Art Nouveau complex. See whimsy come to life in stone and iron at Casa Batlló and La Pedrera. You’ll even enter the Casa Amatller cafe to learn about Barcelona chocolate-making and join the tradition. You’ll leave not only having seen more, but understanding more — how shape, color, and imagination combine to give Barcelona its unmistakable character.

About Barcelona

Barcelona zet Gaudí's fantasiegebouwen en een Gotische wijk tussen stranden en groene heuvels, met eten en nachtleven die er zeker bij passen.

Het werk van Antoni Gaudí bepaalt het beeld van de stad. De Sagrada Família rijst op boven de Eixample, Casa Batlló en Casa Milà staan langs de elegante Passeig de Gràcia en de mozaïekterrassen van Park Güell kijken uit over de daken. De Gotische wijk heeft zijn kathedraal, smalle steegjes en verborgen pleintjes behouden, en El Born voegt het Picassomuseum en de hoge kerk Santa Maria del Mar toe.

Top-ranked sights in Barcelona: Sagrada Família, Montserrat Mountain, Gothic Quarter (Barri Gòtic).
