What to do in Barcelona
Sagrada Familia
The Sagrada Família in Barcelona is one of the world’s most iconic and ambitious architectural projects. Designed by renowned architect Antoni Gaudí, this towering basilica, still under construction after more than a century, is a masterpiece of modernist design that combines Gothic elements with organic forms inspired by nature. As you step inside, the vast interior is bathed in a kaleidoscope of colours from the stunning stained-glass windows, while the towering columns resemble a forest canopy, creating a serene, otherworldly atmosphere. The intricate facades, each telling stories from the Bible, add layers of meaning to this extraordinary monument. A visit to the Sagrada Família not only offers an encounter with Gaudí’s genius but also with one of the most unique religious spaces in the world, symbolizing the harmonious blend of art, faith, and nature.
Take a catamaran ride from Port Vell
Taking a catamaran ride from Port Vell is a refreshing way to experience the city’s stunning coastline and Mediterranean views. As you set sail from the historic harbour, which blends maritime heritage with modern attractions, you’ll glide past iconic landmarks such as the towering Columbus Monument and the sleek W Barcelona hotel. The gentle sea breeze, sparkling waters, and panoramic views of Barcelona's skyline create a serene atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. Whether you're enjoying a daytime cruise or a sunset sail, the catamaran offers a unique vantage point to take in the beauty of the city's beaches, coastal landmarks, and open sea.

Visiting Park Güell in Barcelona is like stepping into a whimsical, colourful world shaped by the creative genius of Antoni Gaudí. This UNESCO World Heritage site is renowned for its playful blend of nature and architecture, featuring vibrant mosaics, winding pathways, and organic shapes that reflect Gaudí's signature modernist style. As you explore the park, you'll be captivated by the iconic serpentine bench, the mosaic-covered dragon (El Drac), and sweeping views of Barcelona from the hilltop terrace. Surrounded by lush greenery, Park Güell is a peaceful retreat from the city's bustle, offering a magical fusion of art, nature, and panoramic beauty.
