WHAT TO DO ON YOUR BARCELONA VACATION

Day Trips Located on the northeastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula, and known as “The Gateway to the Pyrenees,” Barcelona is surrounded by tranquil areas to wander and lovely beaches along the Mediterranean Sea.

Sightseeing Wander the narrow streets in El Barri Gotic, or Gothic Quarter; stroll La Rambla and people watch; and visit the Eixample neighborhood to marvel at the whimsical masterpieces of Antonio Gaudi. Visit the Benedictine abbey at Montserrat or fly a kite at Park Guell. And don’t miss the Picasso Museum!

Off the beaten track treasures that can’t be beat: Explore the back streets and medieval alleyways to find tapas bars and street musicians, flamenco dancers and classical recitals.

Here's what our customers say about how much there is to do in Barcelona:

"Barcelona is a 'walking' city. We never took public transportation so Bruc Balcon is a perfect location for an apartment. Walk to Parc Guell and to the harbor. See and wander through all the small streets and alleys. Look up at balconies. Visit the Picasso museum and their gift shop is a must for last min. gifts to take home!" Pamela Orth

"Barcelona was a city of surprises. The mix of old and new, the fabulous architecture, the energy of a big city, and the plethora of things to do provided an unforgettable travel experience." Marsha Owens

"We have done several Untours destinations and this would rank at or near the top! From pick-up at the train station to delivery to the airport everything was well thought-out and done smoothly. Our apartment was perfect! It was charming and sophisticated and well located for almost everything we wanted to see and do." Clay Cook

"Untours certainly has a gem in Adriana Nadal Piella! She was excellent in caring for us, and she showed great patience in waiting for us on the first morning. The Museum passes and transportation passes were great. Adriana did an excellent job in providing information about local attractions and on how to use the transportation system." Joseph Schaefer

"Placa de Catalunya is great fun. The city is extraordinary, beautiful, clean, with the most whimsical and delightful architecture we've ever seen... we loved the city and its people - what we could see and enjoy. Unlike others, it is a city of smiling people." Mary Wezeman

"Barcelona is a vibrant city. Its size makes it easy to become familiar with many neighborhoods. These apartments should be full. We would love to recommend it!" Jane Conrad

"Our apartment, with its balcony, view, and WIFI was great. We loved Barcelona. We easily could have spent two weeks there. If you are a walker, as I am, Barcelona is a delight. Once again, Idyll has picked a perfect location - both the city and the apartment." Vickie Kelber and George Wilhelm

"Walk, walk, walk. The more you walk, the smaller Barcelona becomes. It really is a delightful city with so much to see. Architecturally it is amazing. Get away from La Rambla and find those places that offer the specials for 10 E or less. They're a good deal." Barbara Martin

"This was one of our favorite Untours, partly due to the excellent coordinator." Gerald Fleischer
