Q: I am setting up a specialist tour company in Barcelona, it would be helpful if you could provide contact details of English speaking tour coach operators and hotels who I can contact to establish business partnerships.

A: Your question is beyond the scope of our site. We deal with general tourist information questions only, and do not deal with business-type enquiries.

All I can do is suggest a few websites for you to research further.

For contacts within the tour industry you could try contact APIT which is an official organization for tour businesses and tour guides in Barcelona. Here is their website address: http://www.apit-barcelona.org

Two other good sources of information will be the Barcelona Tourist Bureau Website. They have a special division that deal with the tourist trade. Here is their website: http://www.barcelonaturisme.com they may also be able to give you some more contacts.

Another useful source of information is the Barcelona Town Council website. http://www.bcn.es

If you want help setting up your business including possible sources of funding, training and help at the early stages of establishing a business in Barcelona then visit the Barcelona Activa website. They have contacts and information that can help any individual who is planning on setting up a business in Barcelona.
