Park Guell tickets and Guided tour

Is his the "official" place to buy entry tickets: https://www.parkguellonline.cat/pg_muslinkIII/venda/index.jsp?lang=3&nom_cache=PARC&property=PARC#close

It shows every day up thru end of April as unavailable except a few weekends this month. I hope this isn't true as we plan being in Barcelona late March.

IF we are able to get tickets, is the guided tour recommended? I would think so, but I suspect the crowds may make it hard to follow a group?
Thanks

True, but when I select to include a guided tour, there is nearly nothing available thru April. Is this normal?

Just to close his off, we DID manage to get the English guided tour for the park Guell. It was fabulous and I highly recommend it. Never would have known that the big concrete "balls" lining the main path are meant to represent rosary beads and the 3d Cross at the top of the building in front of the main square area is the cross at the bottom of the rosary. Seems Gaudi was a very religious person. Also under the main square area (the area lined with the cool curved bench), is an open area and the square is supported by big (hollow) columns. Rain soaks thru from the top, down thru the columns, into a cistern below. Who would know, that's how they planned to provide water to all the houses they hoped to build up there...
