About this tour
This walk covers Gràcia's passatges, narrow residential lanes tucked behind the district's better known squares. You see one covered passatge and a small shared courtyard still used by the people living around it. It is a quieter, more private side of a neighbourhood usually seen through its plazas.
I move slowly through the lanes, keeping a respectful distance from doorways, and take your questions on the district's layout throughout. Afterwards I send a short note on what we saw.
This suits anyone who has already seen Gràcia's main squares and wants something quieter. It also pairs well with a session on Casa Vicens nearby.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
