Discover Medieval and Olympic Barcelona
Overview
This unique tour begins in front of the sea, in the vibrant Port Vell, where the city left behind its walls to open up to the Mediterranean and the world.
From there, we will enter the charming Gothic Quarter, with its alleys full of mystery, Roman and medieval history, hidden squares, and legends that will surprise you. We continue to the Born, a neighborhood with soul, where you will see Santa Maria del Mar and the impressive past that hides the old Born market.
We will go up to Plaça Catalunya, the beating heart between the old and the modern city, and from there we will take the Gran Via until we reach the majestic Plaça Espanya. Among stories, secrets, and great urban transformations, you will relive the 1929 Exhibition to the 92 Olympic Games.
