Airport Transfers Barcelona

Barcelona

Barcelona has a population of more than 1.6 million and the outer metropolitan area pushes this figure up to 5 million people. It’s located on Spain’s east coast on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. As it’s also only 150km from the Pyrenees mountain range you are never far away from adventure.

Barcelona’s architecture is known the world over and is a fundamental part of its attraction to tourists. Great artists like Gaudi, Picasso and Miró have left their mark on the city. Roaming the Gothic Quarter is a not-to-miss opportunity to really experience the history of one of Europe’s culture capitals. Check out the City Hall of Barcelona, the Picasso Museum, and the famous Las Ramblas to make the most of your stay there.

What to see in Barcelona

There is just so much choice in Barcelona. You could easily spend a week here and not scratch the surface of things to do. The Gaudi Buildings are an incredible accomplishment of engineering, style and beauty. The most famous of his works is the Sagrada Familia which, although still unfinished, towers over the city in spectacular dominance. To any visitor it may seem that the city was a blank canvas to the artist as there is so much of his work here. Park Güell is an incredible place to wonder around for an afternoon, filled with the sublime, beautiful and strange. While the Casa Calvet is more of a simple design yet still unmistakably Gaudi.

The Picasso Museum is also a must. Housing over 3,000 of his works from ceramics and drawings to his instantly recognizable paintings, it’s a definite for any fan. Watch one of the best football teams in the world at the Camp Nou Stadium, tour the waterfront, or spend the day in the city’s many museums and art galleries.
