Barcelona Self Guided Audio Walking Tour

1 to 4 hours (approximately)
Offered in: German and 13 more

Barcelona is two cities with a hard seam between them: the tangled medieval Gothic Quarter, and the Eixample — a grid of 113-metre blocks with every corner cut off at 45 degrees.

This is not a fixed route. Say where you are and how long you have — thirty minutes or three hours — and the tour is built to fit that time, including how long you want at each stop.

Choose walking, running, cycling, driving, or a route without stairs (a genuinely accessible route, not a walking route renamed). Pick what interests you: history, food, architecture, photo spots, hidden gems, haunted by ghosts, and more.

You get a map, a numbered stop list, directions, and at every stop, photos with spoken narration. Want more history, fewer hills, a coffee stop, or a restroom? Say so mid-walk and the rest is re-planned.

Up to ten people can follow one tour on their own phones, free. Runs in your browser — nothing to install.

Meeting and pickup

Meeting point
Sagrada Família

You do not need to come here. This is a self-guided tour: open the app wherever you are and it builds your route from your actual location or a location you specify. A pin or landmark is shown only because the form requires one.

End point
Montjuïc

The tour does not end here. This is a self-guided tour: the route ends wherever you asked it to — back where you started, at a stop you chose, or anywhere else. A pin or landmark is shown only because the form requires one.

Itinerary

Duration: 1 to 4 hours (approximately)
  • La Sagrada Familia (Pass by)

    Under construction since 1882. Gaudí is buried in the crypt of his own unfinished building, and knew he would not see it done.

    Admission ticket free
  • 1
    Park Guell

    Built as a failed luxury housing estate — only two of sixty plots ever sold. The city bought it and made it a park, which is why you can walk it at all.

    15 minutes • Admission ticket not included
  • 2
    Casa Batllo

    Casa Batlló and Casa Milà — Two Gaudí apartment blocks four streets apart on Passeig de Gràcia. Casa Milà has no straight interior walls and no load-bearing partitions.

    15 minutes • Admission ticket not included
  • 3
    Gothic Quarter (Barri Gotic)

    Roman walls, a medieval street plan, and a good deal of convincing 1920s reconstruction done to impress visitors to the 1929 Expo.

    15 minutes • Admission ticket free
  • 4
    Mercat de la Boqueria

    A market on this site since 1217, roofed in 1914. Go before 10am if you want to see it working rather than performing.

    15 minutes • Admission ticket free
  • 5
    Montjuic

    A hill that has been a Jewish cemetery, a fortress used to shell the city, an Expo site and an Olympic park — in that order.

    15 minutes • Admission ticket free
