Go Gaudi - An amazing Gaudi experience. Our guide, Oliver, knew Gaudi inside out & shared great info with our group. It was a bummer though that at Casa Batllo he was given a group of Spanish speakers within the larger group of English speakers. Oliver managed this well BUT it was very distracting & disappointing. However when we moved to Casa Milo we were a small English group & Oliver gave us his best. Touring these Gaudi houses is a must do in Barcelona

Spectacular visit to Casa Battlo and Casa Miila! - Oliver was a wealth of information about the Casa Battlo. Enjoyed the explanation of the story about St Jordi and the killing if the dragon and how Gaudi transfer all that into the design of the exterior of Casa Battlo.
Once inside, Oliver’s narrative made our minds transport in time and really realized how amazing and what a genious Gaudi was!
Casa Mila’s balconies and roof were spectacular!
Be prepare to climb 5 floors of stairs , but the roof view and structures are sure worth it!!!!
You can also admire Gaudi’s Casa Mila model on the top floor and other interesting models on how Gaudi could visualize the towers of the Sagrada Familia Basílica.

Amazing! Thank you Sara! - Sara was so accomodating with our little 2 year old. Whilst our daughter was a bit tired and cranky, Sara even paused so we can refill her milk bottle and carry on the guided tour. And she took us all around the place. Our little one bonded with her as well. We can’t thank her enough. We enjoyed the tour!

Amazing Tour - The tour was amazing - Gaudi is a genius! Our guide was very knowledgeable and did a good job keeping our group intact despite it being very crowded in the houses. The only thing that we felt was a negative is that the tour was in English and Spanish, and at times it was difficult to follow and understand everything being said. I know now to look for “monolingual” when booking a tour.

Must see before the start of your high-end shopping and local eating experince - If you want to see how Gaudi catered to his opulent and extravagant (even by today's standards) client's housing needs on Passeig de Gracia you will want to do this tour. Our guide from Julia Travel was excellent - informative and funny. You meet the guide to the left of Casa Batllo's main entrance at a random meeting spot in front of a storefront (not a Julia travel office).

Take a self-guided tour instead. - The company crowded at least 20 people in our group and this was a real problem with the small spaces in Casa Battlo. The guide was a nice enough guy, but he was explaining aspects of the building when half the group couldn't even fit in the space to see what he was explaining. In addition, there were Spanish speakers in the group so he was explaining everything in both English and Spanish which was confusing and he had a really thick accent which made him hard to understand. After a while, I took off my headphones and just tried to enjoy the space in a visual way.
My recommendation would be to take the self-guided tour so you can browse at your own pace.

Absolutely the worst tour experience ever!!! - This was the absolute worst experience ver. The guide rushed us through the Casa Battleo house in 20 minutes only to leave us at the gift shop for over 50 minutes. She would not sotp to let us enjoy the house and all its amazing decor. We then set off to Casa Mila and it more of the same. Very disorganized at the entrance. It was like she had never been there before. The most disappointing experience we have ever had. Definitely not worth the cost!!!

Great houses but terrible guide - Our guide had a bad microphone; her narration was very broken up over the course of the tour of both houses. Many in the group called this to her attention multiple times. She'd simply play around with it and asked if it worked, and if it did she moved on (just before it broke up again). She never made an attempt to contact her company and/or the person that took our names before the tour to swap the equipment.
But little matter; when we could hear her she said something enlightening like, "here's another room". Her narration was of very little interest. We didn't learn about the site or the architecture of the people involved. Many in the group were laughing out loud re: how absurd this all was.
She rushed through the rooms. Some of the people in our tour covertly grabbed the official audio tour at the second house so they could learn *something*. But we didn't spend enough time in any given place so they couldn't get through much of that narration (and they were pretty upset).
Our guide ended the tour 30 minutes early. When questioned she said it was okay since it was a small group. What?
I've been on MANY Viator tours and this was clearly the worst experience we ever had. She asked me what I thought at the end of the tour and I told her, "well, at least we got into the houses".
