Get goosebumps with the Barcelona Ghost Tour….

If you are coming to Barcelona and want to experience a walking tour with a twist then this Ghost tour is definitely the one for you. You will become absorbed with paranormal mysterious stories that have been hidden away in the streets of Barcelona for centuries.

The tour is focused around the Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera quarters, and is based on the book ‘Fantasmes de Barcelona’. Stories of exorcisms, witchcraft, bewitched convents and records of phantom spirits will be discovered in a funny and entertaining way by an expert tour guide who has been providing the ghost tour for years.

  1. Hi

    My wife and I are in Barcelona for 2 nights Jan 5th and Jan 6th 2013
    We always do a ghost tour wherever we go and would like to do one on either of these nights preferably the 5th. Can you help us with this?
    Kindly respond

    Thank you in advance

    • Hi Michael,

      As you’ll see on the webpage for the Ghost Tour, there will unfortunately not be a tour running on either of the nights you mentioned, with the closest available date being the 11th of January.

      We hope you will be able to find an alternative or enjoy exploring the haunted streets on your own.

      Enjoy the trip and please let us know if you have any other questions!

  2. Hi, we are three Australian tourists that have arrived in Barcelona today and leave on Tuesday. We would like to do the Ghost Tour either tonight or tomorrow night, would that be possible? Thanks
