Barcelona Self-Guided City Walking Tour & Scavenger Hunt
Overview
Gaudí turned a city into a fever dream — now the dream comes with riddles.
This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Barcelona on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.
• Study the dragon-scale roof of Casa Batlló on the Block of Discord
• Round the wave-stone curves of Casa Milà, La Pedrera
• Approach La Sagrada Família, the basilica that refuses to be finished
Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app.
Around 2 hours - any group size.
Modernisme, with a scoreboard attached.

What To Expect
Starting on Passeig de Gràcia 35, you'll open the Explorial app, enter the 6-digit game code that you received by text and [BRAND] chat message, and step straight onto the Block of Discord. The tour is fully self-guided — no guide, no fixed start time, just your group and the city.
Casa Batlló opens the show — bones for balconies, a dragon for a roof. Riddles dig into Gaudí's Saint George story written in ceramic.
A few blocks up, Casa Milà ripples like a cliff face carved by the sea. Trivia covers furious neighbours, rooftop warriors and a nickname that stuck: the stone quarry.
Then the avenue gives way to La Sagrada Família, Gaudí's unfinished symphony of towers, cranes included at no extra charge.
Around two hours from facade to facade. When the last riddle falls, the leaderboard names Barcelona's modernista master.
