Barcelona City Tour

Barcelona Walking Tours

Barcelona centre is a very pleasant location to walk around. Much of the area has been pedestrianized, with wide open boulevards that make walking tours a very pleasurable way to visit the city.

Many sights can be seen simply by walking around as the city centre is much smaller than you may think. In the Barri Gotic area (historic quarters) for example, you have nearly a whole day's worth of sights to experience alone without the need for taking any form of public transport. In this area you will see the neighbourhoods in which the great painters Picasso and Miro grew up in. You will also see wonderful examples of Catalan architecture the most notable e.g. being Barcelona Cathedral.

Other popular walking tours include the Modernist walking tour and Picasso walking tour.

Walking tours give you a close up feel for the city and are worth considering if you fit and healthy and don't mind walking.
