Overview

Do you fancy a walk through time, experiencing Barcelona from the 1st Century BC to today? We will start the tour by discovering the origins of Barcelona: A walk through the old town to taste 2000 years of history; since the Roman foundation of the city, the medieval ages and how it has evolved until today.

After that we will head towards the Born neighbourhood, very famous for its tapas and for one of the most stunning Churches and the most beloved by Barcelonians: Santa Maria del Mar.

We will finish our tour with the interior visit of the Picasso Museum in Barcelona. Pablo Picasso was born in Málaga, but moved with his family to Barcelona at the age of 14. You will discover the relationship of Picasso with this city that he loved so much and an amazing collection of his previous works before he developed Cubism. Most of this collection was given by the artist himself.
