If you have a walking in Barcelona, you cannot miss all the impressive architecture of the famous Antoni Gaudí, the main famous Catalan most revolutionary of the Modernism and the global architecture.

Nowadays, the emblematic Sagrada Familia (Basilica and Expiatory Church of the Holy Family), Spanish Property of Cultural Interest by the UNESCO, loved as the professional as the general public, is one of the monument most visited in Spain. Its patrimonial and artistic significance cannot go unnoticed. The estimated time of the tour is 1 hour, whereby you can visit all the mystic symbology. The Basilica is usually open from 9:00AM from 6:00PM in the low season and from 9:00AM from 8:00PM from April to September. We recommend you to purchase the entries earlier and choose the hour you want to visit – since this is the excursion most demanded in Barcelona. And thus, you will skip the line. At the front desk, we could book the tickets for you. Basically, there are two types of tickets: Basic Tickets and the Tickets that allow you to get to the old Towers where you could enjoy a unique panoramic view.

Park Güell, a phenomenal artwork, declared World Heritage Site by the UNESCO thanks to its contribution to the development of the architecture is also a Gaudi’s building. The Park, that the surface area is 17 hectares, is an emblematic garden in Barcelona. The access is regulated and guarantees the conservation nature. The Park is ideal for a ride and gives an awe-inspiring view thanks to its natural relief; but also the Park got the architect’s house museum in which he lived his last years. The Park is open every day from 8:00AM to 9:00PM, more or less, according to season. We recommend you to get your tickets earlier too because the Park has a limited capacity in ticket selling per day and you should be wasting a lot of time waiting at the ticket office.
