Destination: Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is a city on the north east coast of Spain. It is the capital and largest city in the autonomous community of Catalonia. From the Romans to the modern era, passing on to the Catholic kings, the city of Barcelona has been a place where social and artistic vanguardism have left their mark and has made this city one of the most visited worldwide. Many stories are concentrated in one of its most important points: the Gothic Quarter.

Our tour will begin just outside the Gothic Quarter. Along the way we will visit the most important square of Catalunya; we will know what Romans, Muslims, writers, politicians and even dragons have to do with the current Catalan culture. Guarded with gargoyles, we will pass through Sant Felip Neri, a hidden gem built on a Gothic cemetery and whose history you can never forget. Our guide will help you
avoid a curse – at the stunning neo-Gothic bridge known locally as the ‘Pont del Bisbe‘ or ‘Bishop’s Bridge’. The architect secretly incorporated a hidden skull with a dagger inside. Legend says anyone who crosses the bridge and sees the skull will fall prey to an evil spell. Not to worry, our guide knows what to do! Discover this and other emblematic points of the Gothic Quarter.
