Gaudí & Modernism Free Tour
The architect who turned a city into a fairytale
Barcelona’s skyline was hijacked by a genius who hated straight lines. This tour walks the Eixample’s "Block of Discord" and ends at the Sagrada Família, unpacking how Gaudí’s obsessions — nature, faith and broken tiles — produced buildings the city first mocked and now worships.
The walk starts at Plaça Reial (Plaça Reial, Barri Gòtic, Barcelona) and runs daily at 10:30 and daily at 15:00. It lasts around 2.5 hours, is offered in English, Spanish, and the group is capped at 25 people so the experience stays personal. Look for the guide with the green FreeTour sign.
