In the first part of the visit, we will enjoy a walking tour through El Born and the Gothic Quarter. We will have the opportunity to stroll along one of Barcelona’s most important streets and see landmarks such as the Arc de Triomf, the Barcelona Cathedral, and the Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar. We will marvel as we discover the multitude of details on the façades of the buildings we encounter along the way. We will walk through the narrow streets of the city’s old town and uncover the secrets it hides.

At the end of the walking tour, we will board a climate-controlled bus for a panoramic tour of Barcelona. We will make several stops at Montjuïc Hill, which was the Olympic area during the 1992 Olympic Games. The first stop will allow us to access the Montjuïc Cable Car, offering breathtaking views of Barcelona.

It will then be time to return to the office, passing along Passeig de Gràcia, one of Barcelona’s most important streets, home to two of Antoni Gaudí’s most famous works: La Pedrera and Casa Batlló.

Starting March 16, 2026, this experience will be available in the following options: Barcelona Panoramic Tour, Highlights, or Highlights with Cathedral.

Begin your experience with a panoramic bus tour of Barcelona’s most iconic sites. Enjoy the views from the Montjuïc Cable Car, explore the 1992 Olympic area, and make strategic stops such as the MNAC viewpoint or Montjuïc Castle. We will continue by bus along the elegant Passeig de Gràcia.

Back at Estació del Nord, we will begin our walking tour of El Born and the Gothic Quarter for those who have chosen the Highlights or Highlights with Cathedral option.
