Meet your guide: Hi there! My name is Meritxell, and I'm a born-and-raised Barcelona local. Art and culture have been a part of my life since I was a little kid, thanks to my mother, who's a painter. I pursued my passion for art by studying History of Art, and I even had the chance to study in two amazing cities during my degree - Florence and Rome. I fell in love with Italy and perfected my Italian language skills during my five years there. For more than ten years, I've been working as an Official Guide of Catalonia, and it's truly more than just a job - it's a passion. I love being able to share my knowledge of Barcelona with visitors, especially when it comes to Gaudí, who I have a great devotion to. Join me on a tour of Sagrada Familia and let me share with you the emotions that I feel every time I see its stunning shapes, colors, light, and symbolism. I promise you that this will be a one-of-a-kind, unique experience. Let's explore together!
