Description
Our tour will start in the Gothic quarter which is the oldest part of the city and dates back to 2000 years ago. After you have seen the most important highlights, we will turn over to the modernism time, crossing the Eixample district. This was Barcelona's 19th-century answer to the overcrowding in the medieval city and Gaudi´s favorite neighborhood as well.
When entering Raval, you shall discover the red light zone of the city, next to Barri Xines. For centuries now, this part of Barcelona has been the home of nightclubs, cabarets and taverns. This is where sailors had fun after reaching the local port.
The last stop is la Barceloneta, the place where the old part of the city meets the sea. Here you will find an exceptional mix between superb disco clubs, lovely chiringuitos (beach bars), working-class buildings and is riddled with seafood restaurants.
Finally, you will be able to enjoy the seafront of Barcelona which ends this tour with some amazing views, all over the Mediterranean.
