Overview
Don't leave Barcelona without exploring its beautiful Gothic Quarter! On this fantastic walking tour, your local guide will lead you around the best sights in the district and give a little history along the way.
The Gothic Quarter is one of the oldest parts of the city and you will learn how it was founded, its evolution over the years and the history of its most illustrious characters. You'll also be taken to see the remains of the ancient city wall that dates from Roman times, with Medieval additions.
What's more, you'll also learn about important figures in the history of the city such as St. Roque and 'Wilfredo the Hairy', and you'll hear about the flag of Catalonia and how its current design came about.
At the end of your tour, your guide will lead you to a lovely traditional bar where you can enjoy a selection of pintxos - savory snacks consisting of a small tower of bread, cheeses, meats, pickles and more, typically accompanied by something to drink. Pintxos come in a wide variety and are held together with a small toothpick - known as the 'spike' or 'pinch' - which is where the word 'pintxo' comes from.
Make sure to get some tips from your local guide on how to spend the rest of your trip in Barcelona!
