My visit to the Moco Museum was an excellent experience from start to finish. The collection of modern and contemporary art is vibrant, thought‑provoking, and surprisingly accessible. The audio guide made a huge difference: it offered clear, engaging explanations that helped me dive deeper into the meaning and context behind each piece, transforming the visit into something much more immersive. One of the highlights was the multi‑sensory installation featuring lights and sound effects. It created a truly atmospheric environment that felt both playful and emotionally captivating — definitely one of the most memorable parts of the museum. A practical tip: I highly recommend purchasing tickets through the app. It’s quick, convenient, and noticeably cheaper than buying the full‑price ticket at the entrance.

Going at 5 PM, there were very few crowds which really heightened the experience! A highlight was when the organ started playing and filled the concert hall with music while the later afternoon sun shown through the dome. I had connectivity issues and couldn't access the audio guide, unfortunately, but still greatly enjoyed just walking and taking in the stunning architecture

The Palau de la Música is a little known treasure of humanity. It is located in the heart of the Born district and is one of the most emblematic sites of Catalan Modernism. It has been a privilege to learn about its history and about the genius of the architect Domenech i Muntaner from one of the best guides I have found (Axel) who told us the secrets of the Palau with great enthusiasm and humor.

We had a fantastic tour of the Sagrada Familia on January 14. Our guide, Dollos, taught us so much. She was very approachable, knowledgeable, and welcoming, and charmed us with anecdotes and secrets about the extraordinary construction of this masterful work by Gaudi. We will definitely be back to discover more mysteries of this mystical, architectural, and artistic adventure.
