The Montjuïc also includes examples of town planning and architecture especially drawn for the 1929 International Exhibition.
Further on, you will head to the coastline of Barcelona, you will pass by the Columbus Monument and the Gothic Drassanes. The beach is surrounded by the most modern architecture, best represented by the World Trade Centre and the transformed Old Port.

You will learn about the Catalan traditions and Barcelona’s origins, while exploring the enchanting corners, picturesque squares and the narrow alleys of the Gothic quarter.
While walking through the Gothic Quarter, Plaça Sant Jaume, one of the main, oldest and most representative squares of Ciutat Vella, is definitely worth a visit.

I have booked a tour for August and tried to get in touch with in and out Barcelona for weeks. No one answers my emails or phone calls. I would not go on a tour that can’t answer my emails or call. Very odd and unprofessional!

Daniela was very knowledgeable, kind, and flexible throughout the day. My daughter and I really felt like we learned so much about Barcelona and got to see so much of the City in a short period of time. The tour was so worth it- we had explored one of the areas on our own the day before our tour and missed out on so much so we were thankful to have Daniela to fill in all the information we had missed.
