What to expect

Meet your guide in the center of Barcelona in the morning, and get ready for your walking tour of the Old Town and Gothic Quarter areas. Follow your guide along the ancient streets, and discover the origins of Roman Barcelona, dating back more than 2,000 years. Imagine the Roman Forum in the current Plaça de Sant Jaume, which, even today, remains the political power of Catalonia. Walk alongside one of the world's best-preserved Roman walls, and imagine how even at that time thalassotherapy baths were taken at the Roman Baths of Pati Llimona in the eastern part of the wall. Admire the architecture and monumental buildings of the Gothic Quarter, including the 14th-century Plaça del Rei. Learn about the city's Christian side at the Barcelona Cathedral and Santa Maria del Mar, an outstanding example of Catalan Gothic architecture. Soak up the energy of the surrounding neighborhood, filled with bars, restaurants, and small boutiques. Walk along the lively Ramblas, and see street performers before continuing on to the famed Boqueria market for a glimpse at the gastronomic traditions of the Catalan people.

    Fantastic tour! Our tour guide, a young woman took us with great professionalism through the Barcelona Old Town. Aside of her broad knowledge, interesting storytelling, and great English, she was so animated as if she was doing it for the first time, even if she has done it so many times before!
