There seem to be dozens of guides offering tours of various Gaudi sites in Barcelona. They all seem rather expensive (e.g. 250 Euro and up plus costs), and they seem to vary wildly in what they offer (2 sites, 3 sites, 6 sites, private sites, only public locations, etc.). We'd like a guide that is knowledgable of Gaudi, the city, and architecture. And we'd like to get inside as many of the private locations that might be possible. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi, Kevin
You might like this. http://www.toursbylocals.com/ssaarrdd She offers several Gaudi tours of varying time lengths and prices.
Although personally, I'm not a big fan of Gaudi. I highly suggest you also see Le Palau de la Musica Catalana, designed by Montaner who was the leading architect of the time, not Gaudi. You can buy tickets for an one hour tour on their website.

Thanks for the tips, especially the link to Sandra D's tours-by-locals page. She's got a wealth of tours to choose from and most importantly, she's got essential history and art history training. We are reviewing her list. Thanks again.
