Park Güell is more than architecture and more than a garden. It’s a one-of-a-kind landscape filled with unusual sights like a dragon and an “elephant room.” There’s almost too much to see here — master architect Antoni Gaudí was all about details and their hidden meanings — but your private tour guide will make sure you don’t miss a thing.
You’ll meet your guide outside the attraction. We’ll have your skip-the-line tickets for Park Güell, so you can save time waiting in line and get right to the good stuff. Explore the winding viaducts, the Casa Gaudí Museum, the twin Casa del Guardia homes, the Dragon Staircase, a room filled with 86 Doric columns, and much more.
One of our most popular stops on our private Park Güell tour is the sweeping terrace overlooking not just the park but also Barcelona and the Mediterranean Sea beyond. Feel free to snap the perfect selfie or ask your guide to capture a photo of your group. The backdrop can’t be beat.
Along the way, your private tour guide will point out the symbols behind the details you might otherwise miss. Learn about the history of Park Güell and of Antoni Gaudí’s vision for it.
Feel free to stay longer in the park after the tour ends to explore on your own. Your guide will be happy to share more to see if you have even longer to enjoy the attraction.
