Your tour begins at the Carretera del Carmel Park entrance, where your guide awaits to reveal the whimsical wonders within Park Güell.

Your guide will then walk you down the grand stairway, home to the iconic mosaic dragon (or salamander), one of Barcelona’s most recognized symbols.

Pause before Antoni Gaudí’s alluring pink home as your guide shares details of the architect's creative process and personal life.

End your tour in front the Casa del Guarda, once home to the park’s gatekeeper and now a hidden gem of Park Güell. Often nicknamed the “gingerbread houses," for their whimisical white roofs. These entrance pavilions offer a glimpse into Gaudí’s vision of everyday life—blending function with fantasy.
