    A fantastic way to spend the morning in Barcelona! We had a two-hour session with Melissa who was an excellent host and teacher, the activity was a wonderful way to tie together the trips to Park Gūell and the local museums. We all completed full mosaics and were able to collect the final pieces a couple of hours later. Melissa also kept the kids busy so I could complete my piece, she was so kind and patient with all of us. Worth every penny (or cent!), I genuinely cannot recommend the experience enough.

    Our three kids aged 7-12 loved this class. They particularly liked the fact they could break the tiles themselves, although it was a little tricky for our youngest one and we had to help abit. They loved the finished result when we went back to collect them (you need to wait for grout to be applied and dry a little and come back after about 4-5 hours). It’s also in a nice part of the old town which was good to wander around. The staff were helpful and gave the kids great tips. It gave us all a new appreciation of the craftsmanship in all of the beautiful Gaudi mosaics in Barcelona.
