In four hours, you see Casa Batlló from the street, visit La Pedrera inside, and continue by metro or taxi to Sagrada Família for a guided interior visit.
Your guide tells you who paid for these buildings, how the public reacted, and why the city is proud of them now. Available daily.

Program
Tour overview
The route starts on Passeig de Gràcia, visits La Pedrera inside, then continues by metro or taxi to Sagrada Família, where the tour ends.
Timed entry to La Pedrera and Sagrada Família is part of the four-hour itinerary. Admission tickets and transport are paid separately. Available: daily.
L’Eixample & Passeig de Gràcia
The Eixample district has Barcelona's best Modernista buildings, and Passeig de Gràcia has the highest concentration of them. Within two blocks you pass houses by Gaudí, Puig i Cadafalch and Domènech i Montaner — rivals who worked for the same wealthy clients.
Casa Lleó i Morera
This corner house was remodelled in 1902–1905 by Domènech i Montaner, who taught Gaudí at architecture school. In 1906 it won the city's award for the best building of the year. The façade is covered with carved flowers, mosaics and stained glass.
Casa Amatller
The chocolate maker Antoni Amatller asked Puig i Cadafalch for a house unlike anyone else's, and got a stepped Flemish gable covered in ceramics. The chocolate shop on the ground floor still sells the family's brand.
Casa Batlló
Between 1904 and 1906 Gaudí turned an ordinary townhouse into the strangest building on the avenue. The columns look like bones, the roof like the back of a dragon, and the ceramics change colour with the light. Locals call it the House of Bones. It is part of UNESCO's Works of Antoni Gaudí.
Casa Milà
La Pedrera (1906–1912) was the last private house Gaudí built. The wavy stone façade carries no weight — it hangs off a hidden frame — and it holds 32 wrought-iron balconies. The newspapers mocked the building as "the quarry", and the name stuck.
You go inside with your guide to see the courtyards, attic and rooftop, subject to the visitor route open that day.

These final route points and practical details complete the walking-tour outline.
Casa de les Punxes
If the ticket schedule and your pace allow, you can pass Casa de les Punxes before the transfer to Sagrada Família. Its six pointed towers resemble a medieval castle, and a ceramic panel on the façade shows St George, the patron saint of Catalonia.
Sagrada Família
The walk ends at Sagrada Família, which Gaudí knew he would never see finished. Your guide walks you along the Nativity façade figure by figure, down to the carved snails and turtles, and tells you what the builders are working on now.
Your guide then continues with you inside the basilica. Timed-entry tickets are required and paid separately; we confirm both monument slots before booking.
