What to expect

Get right to the heart of the city on this Barcelona highlights tour, your passport to experience some of the city's most important cultural and historical gems. Your day will be brimming with awe-inspiring sights such as the Sagrada Familia basilica and the modernist architecture of Sant Pau. Olivia, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The facades of Gaudí's masterpiece are well worth a closer look - nature-inspired details blend with spiritual symbolism, and each side tells a different biblical story. The Nativity Facade teems with life and detail, while the Passion Facade captivates with its dramatic, minimalist design.'

Your adventure begins with an guided walk around the exterior of the Sagrada Familia basilica, a work in progress that never fails to mesmerise. As you take in the elaborate facades, you'll appreciate why this is Antoni Gaudí's most famous creation. Next, we'll whisk you off to Sant Pau, the city's hub of modernist architecture. Here, you'll discover the former medieval hospital now listed by UNESCO, offering some truly unmissable photo opportunities.

Finally, free time allows you to explore more of Barcelona's vibrant streets around the harbour, and a scenic bus ride offers up fabulous vistas overlooking Plaza España and Las Arenas. This full-day guided city tour of Barcelona promises a feast for the eyes and a wealth of cultural knowledge that will leave you enriched and inspired.

    Barcelona was a good experience. Eight 'pick ups' and 'drop offs' is too many.

    The Barcelona tour surpassed all my expectations. Tour guide was very knowledgeable on the sites we visited, as well as ensuring everyone was safe and made it clear what time we had to return to the meeting point and how to get there. Would highly recommend!

    Our guide was really knowledgeable and great at keeping a big group together. Driver was not great, it was a very jerky journey and they were 25mins late arriving with noone letting us know they were delayed

    Our courier was excellent. She gave clear instructions on leaving and returning to coach and pointed out the various sights en route. Also, she ensured that everyone was safe crossing streets.

    Scenery and tour guide excellent. Good stops. Not enough time at some places. Felt very rushed. Last stop was a long way from La Ramblas which we wanted to visit but couldn’t. TUI rep told us when we booked the tour we couldn’t be picked up from our hotel so arranged pick up from somewhere else. This was about a 30 minute walk away so very inconvenient. If we’d have known how far it was away we wouldn’t have booked. But overall we had a good day and enjoyed it.
