At the beginning of the century, the high class of Barcelona wanted to live in the city centre. The most remarkable example of this desire is the Palau Guell, the house of the same Guell family that founded the construction of the Park Guell and the major patron of Gaudi’s work.

Be prepared to be disappointed if you expect to see the fort-castle inside. The ride in the funicular and cable cars are ok and the tour cuts the wait. You walk around the outside and see nice views of the city and the port but I side is a disappointment bc there are only a few rooms open and they are set up as a museum and not the former use or exhibits. The guide, Montserrat, continually lectured about the history of the regional disputes in Spain, Catalunya versus others and provided her very strong personal view point over and over. Several people on the tour commented that she had strong political views that did not belong on this type of tour. It's nice to learnso.e history but not to continually review the Spanish disputes from the 16th and 17th century in detail.
Also, the dungeons or prisons were closed for some time and not expected to reopen so Viator needs to update its description. I have been to several forts in many countries and this was the most disappointing.

The tour was advertised as an exclusive tour of Montjuic and the dungeons with a maximum of 12 people. Exclusive did not mean skip the line, we waited on line with a few hundred people
Our group had 14 people in it. It almost was 15, one person went with the other group to stay with her friend.
It is listed as a castle when it is actually a fortress. We never saw the dungeons. We were told they are not accessible.
Edward was a very good guide. He managed to get us all through the metro, the funicular and cable cars efficiently (except for all of the people) He obviously loves the city and shows that passion. He was personable and seemed knowledgeable.

The Old Town history was very informative and interesting.
The castle has amazing views and history.
Our guide Miguel was very good.
There is a lot of walking involved, as well as the cable car, subway and train to get around for this tour.

Absolutely fantastic tour delivered by our lovely guide, Montse. She really gave us a deeper understanding of the culture of Barcelona, something that is really difficult to capture by simply walking around the city. Our tour was to Montjuic Castle, an absolutely must-see location. The views over the city are simply amazing. Coupled with Montse's guidance, it was truly a great experience. Bring water and a good pair of walking shoes. 👍🏻
