Itinerary
Barcelona
Upon arrival at Barcelona airport, you’ll be transferred to your hotel for your included 3-night stay in this vibrant city and cosmopolitan capital of Spanish Catalonia. Once you’ve settled in, take the opportunity to discover Barcelona at your own pace. Immerse yourself in the city’s lively atmosphere, wander through the historic streets and explore the bustling local markets, or take a stroll along the beautiful coastline. This true Mediterranean gem offers something for everyone.
The infinite variety of street life, the nooks and crannies of the medieval Barri Gòtic, the ceramic tile and stained glass of Art Nouveau facades, the art and music, the throb of street life, the food (ah, the food!)—one way or another, Barcelona will find a way to get your full attention. The capital of Catalonia is a banquet for the senses, with its beguiling mix of ancient and modern architecture, tempting cafés and markets, and sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches. A stroll along La Rambla and through waterfront Barceloneta, as well as a tour of Gaudí’s majestic Sagrada Famíliaand his other unique creations, are part of a visit to Spain’s second-largest city. Modern art museums and chic shops call for attention, too. Barcelona’s vibe stays lively well into the night, when you can linger over regional wine and cuisine at buzzing tapas bars.
