The best way to get
The best way to get to know a city is to wander around for the sights, the smells, and the interesting people you meet. The drawback to aimless wandering is that you have no idea what that beautiful building is called, why they decided to build a fountain there, and who the heck that statue is of. And that’s why we went on a Barcelona free walking tour.
Our intrepid guide Gustavo walked us through the Gothic Quarter, Barcelona Old Town, and El Born, pointing out all of the interesting buildings and explaining the history of Barcelona and Catalonia. The day of our tour was a public holiday and the streets were packed with people enjoying the beautiful weather and street musicians filling the air with song.
Our tour was through the company Guru Walk. You can check out their free tour options here: https://www.guruwalk.com/barcelona
Although tours are free, you are expected to pay what you feel is fair to your guide at the end. We each paid our guide EUR10, which seemed to be pretty standard, just to give you an idea.
After the tour, we went to the seaside to try one of the local foods our guide told us about, fideuà. Think paella but with noodles instead of rice. It is delicious. And very fishy, if you can believe that.
After lunch, we walked through the La Barceloneta neighborhood and ran into multiple raucous parades!
On Sunday morning, we got dressed up to go to Mass at La Sagrada Familia. We tried our best to get there by 9AM for the service, but the line was too long and we didn’t get in.
If you want to attend the Sunday service at Sagrada Familia we recommend arriving by 8am so you can get in line early. Luckily, there was a restaurant nearby where we could eat consolation churros and stare at the Sagrada Familia in the bright morning sun.
We love Barcelona and can’t wait to get back there!
