Explore Antoni Gaudi's most famous residential masterpieces in Barcelona through a flexible itinerary combining expert guided tours and an exclusive glass of cava.
Delve into the universe of Catalan modernism by discovering the most iconic residential creations of Antoni Gaudi through a customizable itinerary. Depending on the selected option, the experience can begin at Casa Batllo, renowned for its organic facade and undulating balconies inspired by the ocean. Inside, you will walk through the noble floor with its large windows overlooking the main avenue, the blue-toned central lightwell, and the dragon roof terrace adorned with trencadis mosaics, concluding with a cutting-edge immersive technological cube.
The guided journey can continue toward Casa Mila, popularly known as La Pedrera and declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There, you will contemplate its famous stone structure before visiting the residential apartment, furnished with period pieces to illustrate bourgeois life at the beginning of the last century. You will also cross the Flower and Butterfly courtyards, the attic featuring catenary arches that resemble a whale's ribcage, and the iconic rooftop guarded by warrior-shaped chimneys.
To complete this cultural immersion, the corresponding options connect with Casa Vicens, considered the architect's very first masterpiece. This colorful estate with oriental influences is explored independently with the assistance of a detailed audio guide. Upon concluding the stroll through its rooms filled with intricate tilework, a glass of cava is served in an exclusive setting to toast the legacy of the genius architect.
