All around very nice and entertaining tour. Individual, and very interesting narration of the history of this park and the life of Gaudi. Our guide Stephen Gonzales was relaxed, educated, always open to questions and humorous. It felt like discovering this park together with a good friend. Great

It was a memorable experience from which I learned many things about Catalan and universal religious history.I was impressed by the influx of people interested in this objective and their multiculturalism.I felt that here, we all leave personal problems aside and enjoy the simple things.
