This tour is an introduction to the fantastic world of Barcelona’s most important architect, Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926).

We will begin in the heart of Barcelona to see the exterior of two of Gaudí’s masterpieces: Casa Milà (also known as La Pedrera) and Casa Batlló. With these famous apartment buildings as a backdrop, we will learn about the historical and architectural context which made Gaudi the most representative figure of Modernism (Art Nouveau) in the city. These two monuments were declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO and testify to Gaudí’s exceptional contribution to the development of architecture in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

During the course of this Gaudí walk, we will also look at other works as we stroll down the famous boulevard of Paseo de Gracia. By the end, we will have insight into Barcelona’s evolution and what led Gaudí to deliberately construct fascinating buildings in a very personal and unique style.

Excelente. Es el segundo paseo que mis estudiantes y yo damos con Rafi y de nuevo hemos quedado encantados. Nos hemos conectado desde Indonesia, a una distancia geográfica enorme y, sin embargo, hemos vuelto a sentir que caminábamos realmente por Barcelona. El contenido de este tour es muy específico, la arquitectura de Gaudi, lo cual suponía un desafío, en este caso por la distancia cultural. Sin embargo, las explicaciones han sido en todo momento claras y amenas, los estudiantes han hecho preguntas y comentarios y han terminado la visita charlado con Rafi. Este tipo de paseos es un recurso educativo de primera calidad y Rafi es una gran comunicadora, así que lo recomiendo tanto para visitas privadas como para visitas académicas. Muchas gracias, Rafi. Nos vemos pronto 🙂

The first time I took a tour with Rafi was in 2011. I was traveling with my middle school students and their parents. We toured Barcelona and Madrid at that time. Rafi is one of the most knowledgeable, friendliest tour guides I have ever known. She is very thorough with her explanations and encourages you to asks questions and learn more. I booked the architectural tour of the master Gaudí. Rafi points out to every detail of his work and his background. We absolutely loved it!! We will be booking another one!!
