Start your Christmas walk in Plaça de Sant Jaume, where your guide will meet you in front of Starbucks with a green umbrella. Wander through the Old Town’s beautifully illuminated, car-free streets as your guide shares Catalan holiday traditions, local customs, and the stories behind Barcelona’s festive decorations.
From November 28 to December 23, the route also passes through the city’s main Christmas market, adding extra seasonal charm.
This experience is offered in two durations: one that remains within the atmospheric Gothic Quarter, ending among its historic lights; and an extended option that continues into the elegant Eixample district, finishing at Casa Batlló and its seasonal illumination. Both offer a warm, intimate look at Barcelona during the holidays.
