DAY 1. BARCELONA: GAUDÍ. A FULL IMMERSION.
Of all the singular architecture that one can see around Barcelona, Catalan Art Nouveau is probably the most original and recognizable, thanks to Gaudí. The breathtaking Sagrada Família basilica, the magical Park Güell or the incredible Casa Milà ("La Pedrera") are only some of the highlights of his legacy. Yes, we include the basics but always manage to go beyond.
DAY 2. BEYOND BARCELONA: DALÍ AND GIRONA
We're enamored of Catalonia and want to share it with you. Our country is full of fascinating contrasts and today will be just but a small taste of it: from the Surreal with the crazy and magnificent Dalí, to surrender ourselves to some of the most beautiful and charming Medieval in Girona and Besalú.
DAY 3. BARCELONA: ROMANESQUE, MODERNISM & CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE. A journey through our heritage.
Catalonia has an incredible historic heritage to get to know, as well as a stunning present to enjoy. The morning will be devoted to one of the treasures of Catalan Art: that of the Romanesque. And while in the afternoon we’ll visit some of our modernist architectural jewels, in the evening we’ll enjoy private access to key reference contemporary architecture.
