Barcelona has so many experiences to offer that for some first-time visitors it can be difficult to decide which sites to prioritise. That’s why Julià Travel has come up with this excellent Barcelona highlights tour – offering you a real insight into the history and culture of the city.

Gothic Quarter
In many ways this is the obvious area to begin any visit to Barcelona. By starting the tour in medieval Barcelona and taking in its magnificent 13^th-century cathedral, participants get a real sense of the history of the Catalan capital.
Olympic Port
Julià Travel will then take you out of the very old centre into the very new area around Barcelona’s seafront. While the 1992 Olympic Games were highly significant for the whole city, nowhere can this be seen more clearly than in stunningly contemporary area of the Olympic Port, which served as the Olympic village during the event.
Montjuïc: Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium, Palau Sant Jordi and the Calatrava Tower
You’ll then be transported from the shore of the Mediterranean up to Barcelona’s acropolis, Montjuïc. Here you’ll be shown around the awe-inspiring collection of buildings that played host to the main Olympic events.
Poble Espanyol
El Poble Espanyol (the Spanish Village), is a selection of buildings based on styles from all over Spain. You’ll also find an excellent craft market and we’ll give you a complementary glass of Catalan Cava to sip while you soak up the atmosphere.
Teleferic de Montjuïc
Your Barcelona highlights tour ends in the perfect manner, with a trip back down to the city in a cable car. This will give you the chance to take in spectacular views and to realise once again the incredible variety of sites that this city has to offer.
Julià Travel is one of Spain’s leading tour specialists. We’ll take you to each location by bus and provide an expert guide, making the experience both more convenient and more insightful than exploring the city on your own.
