Millions of visitors are drawn to this Mediterranean city for its world-class attractions, cultural heritage and favourable climate. Never boring, Barcelona has something for everyone, making it a year-round top destination.
Architect and designer, Antoni Gaudi was at the forefront of the Art Nouveau movement in Spain. His work in Barcelona led to the creation of some of the city's most notable landmarks. Gaudi was a pioneer in his field using colour, texture, and movement in ways never before imagined. His works, both finished and uncompleted, stand as testimony to his genius.
We will visit one of the most amazing beaches, the most popular beach in Barcelona El
Bogatell Beach. Lovers of old buildings and amazing architecture should visit the Aduana del Puerto de Barcelona and Casa Battlo. Parc Guell is one of the most famous places in Barcelona (optional).
Itinerary:
Our hotel is located in the heart of the city centre, (3 stars) is just a few steps from the famous Gothic Quarter, and within walking distance from the Picasso Museum. Set in a listed building just 800 metres from the seafront and Barceloneta Metro Station. It is a 5-minute walk from the trendy Born neighbourhood and Ciutadella Park, Barcelona Cathedral and Maremagnum Shopping Centre.
Our local host will be Jose Antonio, we’ve never seen Jose without a book under his arm (and another few in his bag), a notebook, and a pen to jot down his thoughts; always reading, always a student, but a professor and “Life Coach” as well! As the longest-running guide, Jose continues to wow our members with his infinite knowledge, along with his unbridled enthusiasm for his home city, his many trades, and all parts of life.
