About this package

Three days is enough to fall for Barcelona if you spend them well. This short break covers the city’s two great chapters, the medieval old town and Gaudí’s Eixample, and leaves room for long lunches and a slow walk by the sea.

You stay in El Born, the most walkable neighborhood for a first visit, and every tour starts within reach of your hotel. Private transfers are included both ways, so there is nothing to organize from the moment you land.

Questions

Planning a package

Can I customize a package?

Yes. Every package is a starting point: we can add nights, swap a tour, upgrade your room or build in a day trip. Send your request and your planner will return an updated plan and price.

Are flights included?

No. Packages start and end in Barcelona and include private transfers from and to the airport or station. We are happy to suggest the most convenient arrival times.

How much deposit do packages need?

A 30% deposit holds your hotel and tours, and the balance is due 30 days before you arrive. If you book within 30 days of travel, the full amount is due at confirmation.

Can children join a package?

Of course. We adjust the pace, pick family rooms or connecting rooms and swap any adult-only activity for something the whole family will enjoy. Children under 12 get a reduced price on most tours.

What if my flight is delayed on the first day?

Your driver tracks your flight and waits, whatever the delay. If you miss the first afternoon’s tour, your planner will move it to another day of your trip where possible.
