We opted for a guided visit of Casa Vicens and are so glad we selected this option. Ian was a wonderful guide who clearly has a passion for this first house of Antoni Gaudi and overall appreciation and understanding of Gaudi’s style of architecture. This was conveyed throughout the visit and made our visit more enjoyable. The house, overall, has a distinct feel than the other Gaudi pieces of work we visited (Casa Mila, Casa Battlo, Sagrada Familia and Park Guell), since it was the first major piece of work he designed, but it still has a lot of the organic elements we seek in his work. Ian made sure this was identified and described in our tour. The tour was provided as a story of the Vicens family and greatly added to the intimate feeling of the tour along with the fact they limited the number of folks in the tour group.
