Our guide to Barcelona in a Day

Barcelona is not an easy city to see in a single day, especially on your own. This carefully planned walking tour will ensure you see the city's essentials in just one day, complete with tickets and transport. From the centuries-old streets of the Gothic Quarter to the sweeping panoramic views at Montjuïc Hill, you'll see and do it all, stopping at iconic landmarks like the Sagrada Familia and Park Güell to skip the line and head straight inside. With transportation via private minibus and cable car included to make the most of your time, this fully guided tour ensures you enjoy the best of Barcelona without a moment of hassle.

Discover Barcelona’s highlights in one perfectly planned day, with private transportation, pre-booked tickets, and a local guide to ensure a seamless experience. Start your adventure in the Gothic Quarter, where you'll discover the city’s ancient plazas, Roman walls, and hidden corners. Then continue to El Born to experience even more of Barcelona’s historic heart.

You've seen Barcelona from street level; now it's time to marvel at the Catalan capital from above. Ascend Montjuïc Hill for sweeping views of the city before boarding a cable car that takes you down to Barceloneta, where you’ll have free time to enjoy the beach or a coffee.

After you reconvene, your journey continues by private minibus along Passeig de Gracia. Drive past the iconic façades of Casa Batlló and Casa Milà on your way to Park Güell, where your skip-the-line tickets allow you to head straight into this colourful wonderland of mosaics and sculptures. Here, your guide will share stories of Gaudí’s life and his passion for blending art and nature.

Following a drive back into the city, your walking tour ends at the Sagrada Família with a fully guided visit. Skip the line and get right to admiring the basilica’s intricate façades and its soaring interior. As light streams through the stained-glass windows, your guide will explain the stories and symbols that make this masterpiece a symbol of Barcelona’s spirit.
