Get a full grasp on the grandeur of Gaudí's architecture on this fascinating, eye-opening tour of some of his greatest masterpieces. Skip the lines at Casa Batlló and Sagrada Família to experience their incredible designs firsthand and open yourself to Gaudí's visionary world.

Start from Plaça Catalunya and head to Passeig de Gràcia, one of the most important avenues in Barcelona for its luxury shops and splendid architecture. Here, you can spot Gaudí's influence in places like the undulating façade of La Pedrera and the modernist lampposts that line the street. Make your way to Casa Batlló, an incredible building whose exterior is decorated with a colorful mosaic of tiles. Your guide leads you in, expediting you through the line, and takes you on a tour through the magnificent rooms and floors, including the rooftop where you can get an up-close look at the tiled spine of the dragon.

After learning the thought-provoking secrets and metaphors of Casa Batlló, continue on to Sagrada Família in the Eixample district. The awe-inspiring basilica, which has yet to be completed, is richly packed with immaculate details that make it one of Gaudí's finest works. Cruise through the line and step into the UNESCO-listed site to marvel at its equally opulent interior and vaulted ceilings. Your guide explains the meaning and significance of every aspect of the intricate building, opening your eyes to the vastness of Gaudí's vision. Your tour ends when you return to your starting point, a whole new world of architectural wonder open to you.

Nicknamed the Casa dels ossos (House of Bones) by locals for its skeletal facade, Antoni Gaudí's Casa Batlló is a must-visit modernist icon in the heart of Barcelona. Step inside the luminous space to discover its organic architectural shapes, stained glass windows, and striking features with the help of a dynamic audio-video SmartGuide.

Stroll down the elegant Passeig de Gràcia to reach Casa Batlló, taking some time to admire the mosaicked exterior of the building with its bone-like balconies and vertebral details. Then, bypass the lines out front and head inside, picking up a SmartGuide on your way in. This handy screen features video and augmented reality technology to let you visualize how the Batlló family lived in this unique space and what furniture once filled its warped and unusually shaped rooms.

Listen to engaging commentary about the design of the space and the life of architect Antoni Gaudí himself as you roam this 20th-century masterpiece. Walk through the residential noble floor, the window-filled attic, and the fabulous stairwell with its ornate carvings and clever skylights. On the rooftop terrace, snap photos of the detailed chimneys, whose patterns represent figures from mythology, before making your way down the grand main staircase to bring your journey into the past to a close.

Nestled in the uniquely shaped mountains lies a monastery complete with stunning basilica and cloister. Marvel at the surreal setting and get a look at La Moreneta, the Virgin of Montserrat. After listening to the heavenly voices of the boys' choir, take a walk through the natural park nearby.

Meet your guide at the WE Boutique to begin your day trip to the Montserrat region that is just an hour north of Barcelona. As you arrive, pause to take in the sheer beauty of this tucked away monastery. The series of interestingly eroded mountains make up a backdrop that leaves you breathless. Explore the basilica and the cloister while your guide tells you about the history of the monastery.

Inside the building is La Moreneta, a black-faced Virgin depiction with an interesting story. Finish your tour of the monastery by listening to the Escolania de Montserrat, a choir of children with the voice of little angels.

Then you can enjoy the landscape and nature as you take the rack railway to Sant Joan. From here, you walk an hour through the Montserrat National Park to a high point that provides an excellent view of the region. Snap a photo to remember your trip by, and then journey back to Barcelona.

Breathtaking views atop Montserrat mountain and fresh, bubbly, cava await you. Visit one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Europe—the Montserrat monastery—and listen to its angelic boys’ choir before treating your taste buds to some sparkling wine.
