This was a great experience. Tickets were easy to get, the guide was easy to find when you got to the entrance of the park. He was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the tour. He also made it known that you could leave the tour at any time and experience the park on your own, also you could stay in the park after the tour and explore the park some more. Would recommend this tour, it's a must do in Barcelona.Roberta.

Everything worked really well, instructions for meeting were a bit confusing, I thought it meant you would be in the parking lot over the road? Never mind, we found the purple shirts! Steven was fantastic guide, so interesting and informative.

It was a great experience to walk through the Park Guell. The meeting place was easy to find. We took a taxi to the Park Guell and after the tour used a Hop on hop off bus. The tour guide was great and we have enough time to take the amazing photos. When the tour finished anyone who wanted to stay longer could do it.

Our guide was animated and obviously loves sharing the history and stories of Parc Guell. At a little over an hour it was the perfect length.
