4-hour private tour: From the Sagrada Familia to the Roman necropolis of La Vila de Madrid

Two thousand years of Barcelona in four hours on foot, with a private guide, starting with the newest building and ending with the oldest. It begins at the Sagrada Família, viewed from the outside, and then takes the metro (included) to Passeig de Gràcia. There you'll find Casa Batlló, Casa Amatller, and Casa Lleó Morera, three consecutive facades and three different ways of understanding Modernism. Next, the old town, and here's what sets this tour apart from others: it doesn't just stop at the cathedral. It passes by the Roman wall, the Temple of Augustus hidden in a courtyard, Plaça de Sant Felip Neri with the marks of the Spanish Civil War, the Pont del Bisbe (Bishop's Bridge), Plaça del Rei, Sant Jaume, Plaça Reial with Gaudí's lampposts, La Rambla, and La Boqueria market. The tour concludes at the Roman burial road in Plaça de la Vila de Madrid, with the tombs of Barcino in view. Along the way, you'll encounter Santa Eulàlia, the Jewish Quarter (El Call), George Orwell, and Catalan traditions. Because it's a private tour, the pace and topics are adjusted to the group. Entrance fees to the monuments are not included.
