Overview

Barcelona looks different from above, and this small-group tour shows you both sides of the city: the lively streets of the Old Town and the wide views from Montjuïc.

Set off along La Rambla with your guide, stopping at La Boqueria market and the façade of Gaudí’s Palau Güell, then cross into the Raval, the old town’s most multicultural neighbourhood, to meet Botero’s famous cat.

Ride the funicular and cable car up to Montjuïc Castle, a fortress that has watched over the city for centuries, and hear its story from the Spanish Civil War to today. From the top, enjoy 360º views of the port and the city, reaching the Pyrenees on clear days, before heading back down to Poble-sec, one of the best areas in town for tapas.

- Small-group walk through the Old Town and the Raval

- Funicular and cable car rides, both ways

- Guided visit to Montjuïc Castle

- See La Boqueria, Palau Güell and Botero’s cat

Meet your guide at Palau Moja, one of the few 18th-century aristocratic palaces still standing on La Rambla, and set off into the heart of the Old Town.
10 min
Mercat de la Boqueria
Wander into La Boqueria, Barcelona’s most famous market, under its iron roof and modernist entrance. Its stalls of fresh fish, fruit and local products have fed the city for centuries.
Pass by, no stop
Las Ramblas
Walk down La Rambla, the lively boulevard that links Plaça de Catalunya to the sea. Look down for the colourful pavement mosaic Joan Miró created in the middle of the street.
Pass by, no stop
Palau Guell
Stop in front of Palau Güell, the city mansion Gaudí designed for his patron Eusebi Güell, today a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and admire the façade of one of his earliest major works.
Pass by, no stop
Cat, Fernando Botero
