Bon dia, Barcelona!
Whether you already know the Catalan city on the northeast coast of Spain or are visiting it for the first time, Barcelona is always worth the visit! Hardly any other city offers as much to discover as the Spanish metropolis. Stroll along Las Ramblas, lick a delicious ice cream and turn off to the "Mercat de la Boqueria". This huge hall is filled with fresh fruit, fish, meat, cheese and many other delicacies as far as the eye can see. Of course, a visit to the famous Sagrada Familia is also essential. Even if you already know the church, a lot has certainly changed since your last visit, as it's still under construction! Parc Güell, also designed by Antoni Gaudí, is also worth a visit with its colourful houses and pretty gardens. When you've had your fill of culture, sit down in one of the great beach bars or cafés on the harbour and city beach. Watch fascinating street artists, treat yourself to a cocktail and savour Spanish tapas.

Optional Excursions
If you’d like to make your trip even more unforgettable, you can also book the following optional excursions. These excursions can be selected in the booking process.
Guided tour of Sagrada Familia (includes Fast Track tickets)
No trip to Barcelona would be complete without a visit to the famous Sagrada Familia! With Fast Track tickets, avoid waiting in the long queues and get complimentary access to this breathtaking cathedral, stress-free! The Sagrada Familia is a monumental structure designed by the famous modernist architect Antoni Gaudi and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In addition to a comprehensive guided tour of the cathedral's interior with its five wings and parabolic arch, you can also visit the Sagrada Familia Museum, which documents the development of the building from 1882 to the present day.
Please note that the Sagrada Familia is not accessible to people with reduced mobility. Out of respect for the cultural sites visited on the tour, you are asked to not wear flip flops, sleeveless tops, shorts, or skirts that end above the knees, as well as any other inappropriate items of clothing.
Cooking class in Barcelona
Learn how to prepare the most emblematic dish of Spanish gastronomy, paella, in this cooking class with a professional chef! You will meet in the Horta-Guinardó district, at the foot of Parc Güell and the Collserola Natural Park. A professional chef will welcome you before giving a brief overview of the main ingredients and how they're used to prepare this iconic dish. In the meantime, enjoy a typical Catalan amuse-bouche, bread with tomatoes, "pan con tomate". Cook your own paella with fresh, high-quality ingredients and choose the most suitable rice and seafood before tucking in with a fine glass of wine.
24-hour ticket for the hop-on/hop-off bus
See the best of Barcelona at your own pace - hop on and off whenever and wherever you want! Take advantage of the two East and West Line tours with audio guides in 12 languages to see all of Barcelona's main sights. Enjoy the ride through Gaudi's city and hop off to visit the landmarks that interest you!
Bike tour from Barcelona with tapas tasting
Discover Barcelona's historic centre by bike and taste typical Spanish tapas dishes! Together with your guide, you will ride through the centre of the Catalan capital to discover sights such as the Palace of Catalan Music, the Gothic Quarter, cathedral, Plaça Real, the Port of Vell, and much more! Breaks are planned during the tour and you can listen to the guide's commentary and enjoy the sights you want to see at your leisure. Make sure to snap memorable photos as you go. A special treat also awaits you at the end: sample some of Barcelona's famous tapas in a typical Spanish restaurant with a drink of your choice.
