Itinerary

Parc de Montjuic

You will start on the Montjuïc Mountain, from where you will enjoy the superb panoramic views of the city. Montjuïc, originally used as a strategic place to protect the city against attacks, is now home to the famous Miró foundation and the Caixa Forúm. These and other buildings on the hill, perfectly illustrate examples of modern art and contemporary architecture. The Montjuïc also includes examples of town planning and architecture especially drawn for the 1929 International Exhibition.
2
Las Ramblas
Further on, you will head to Barcelona’s waterfront, passing by famous city sights. Drive through Las Ramblas, a very famous avenue, home to many bars, restaurants and shops.
3
Mercat de la Boqueria
Along the way, you may pass by the most known covered market of the city, La Boquería. The market offers a great variety of fresh products of good quality. On this market, you can feel the gastronomic traditions of the Catalan people through its colorful and exuberant posts, or learn where the worldwide famous Iberian cured ham comes from.
4
La Barceloneta
Pass by the Barceloneta, once the home of fishermen, people associated with the fishing trade and the metal industry, and nowadays one of the city's most visited and popular districts. The neighbourhood, with its narrow, rectilinear streets, was built on a military grid structure to provide accommodation for the former inhabitants of La Ribera who had lost their homes due to the construction of the Citadel Park.
5
Ciutat Vella
Continue the day by making a walking tour through the medieval part of the city. Enjoy a stroll in the Gothic Quarter, known as one of the districts that are part of Ciutat Vella, the old town of the city. In Ciutat Vella, where the history of Barcelona began, you will experience modernity woven with Roman and medieval imprints. There you will learn about the Catalan traditions and Barcelona’s origins, while exploring the enchanting corners, picturesque plazas and the narrow alleys of the Gothic quarter.
6
Gothic Quarter
Along the walking tour, you will experience the Plaça Reial as a sparkling square with a very warm atmosphere.
7
MUHBA Temple d'August
As you explore Barcelona's Gothic Quarter you'll come across one of the city's best-kept secrets. Inside a small medieval courtyard, the four columns from the Temple of Augustus have survived despite the passing of the centuries. They are more than 2,000 years old, like Barcelona itself.
8
Catedral de Barcelona
Pass by the Barcelona Cathedral and discover its façade and the combination of Romanesque, Gothic and neo-Gothic styles due to the fact that it was built over six centuries. Funded by donations from the medieval brotherhoods and guilds, the building work in Santa Creu commenced in 1298 and was completed around 1890, following the original plans, in the neo-Gothic style.
9
Placa Sant Felip Neri
The romantic, slightly faded Plaça Sant Felip Neri is an unmissable corner of the Gothic Quarter. Presided over by the baroque church from which it takes its name, the square features a number of historic elements that make it particularly attractive.
10
Passeig de Gracia
Along the way, pass through Passeig de Gràcia, with its typical Catalan architecture. The avenue is home to the most remarkable façades of modernist buildings, including Gaudi’s La Pedrera, Casa Batlló and Domènech's Casa Lleó - Morera or Casa Ametller.
11
Casa Batllo
Marvel at the beautiful façade of Casa Batlló, with its vibrant colors, and details that make it one of Gaudí's most iconic works.
12
La Pedrera - Casa Mila
Take in the unique, wave-like façade of Casa Milà, or La Pedrera, a true Gaudí masterpiece that stands out with its bold design.
13
Basilica de la Sagrada Familia
The Sagrada Familia is sure to leave a lasting impression. Experience a moment full of emotion, admiring Gaudi's masterpiece, considered as the most emblematic landmark of Barcelona. The symbolic nature of the building’s sculpted façade will certainly be the highlight of your tour.
