Activity itinerary

Plaza de Catalunya (Pass by)

We begin in Plaça de Catalunya, the beating heart of modern Barcelona, where the old city and the modern world collide. From there, we descend into the Gothic Quarter — into narrow streets built on top of ancient Roman Barcelona.

Placa Reial (Pass by)

In Plaça Reial, you’ll discover Barcelona’s more glamorous side: palm trees, elegant arcades, nightlife, and even lanterns designed by a young Gaudí before he became famous.

Plaça de la Mercè (Pass by)

Plaça de la Mercè reveals the spiritual soul of the city and the traditions Catalans still celebrate today with human towers, festivals, and powerful local identity.

Plaça Nova (Pass by)

At Plaça Nova, we stand beside Roman walls nearly 2,000 years old. Barcelona began here — as a small Roman colony called Barcino.

Placa de Sant Jaume (Pass by)

Plaça Sant Jaume, the political heart of Catalonia for centuries. This square has witnessed celebrations, revolutions, protests, and moments that shaped modern Catalan identity.

Placa Sant Miquel (Pass by)

In quiet places like Plaça Sant Miquel, we slow down and experience the rhythm of local life away from the tourist crowds.

Plaça de Santa Maria (Pass by)

In Plaça de Santa Maria and Plaça Comercial, medieval history mixes with modern creative energy, cafés, art, and local culture.

Plaça Comercial (Pass by)
