Self-Guided Tour of Barcelona | Ciutat Vella

5.0
(2 reviews)
Barcelona, Spain

2 to 3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Spanish and 1 more

This is not a tour to listen to dates and nod in the face of “Oh, what a liturgy”.
It's a trip back to medieval Barcelona, where the streets hid secrets, hygiene was optional and surviving was a damn miracle.
You will walk through Ciutat Vella as your mobile phone becomes your lasarillo: riddles, audios, videos, music and a lot of humor accompany you to discover real stories, absurd and... a rather uncomfortable one.
Because living in the past wasn't pretty. But reliving it will be fascinating.
