We want you to have a variety of things to do because we believe that’s how you’ll get the ultimate experience. Here’s what you can’t miss in this iconic Spanish country.

The Art of Gaudí

The more you explore Barcelona, the more you’ll get to know the incredible art of Antoni Gaudí. He designed a shocking amount of structures in the city, and many of them can’t be missed. His masterpiece, which he considers his life’s work, is the Sagrada Família church. Even if you see nothing else, the Sagrada Família cathedral shows off his art better than anything. However, another amazing place that displays his art is Park Guell.

Las Ramblas

In order to fully embrace the nightlife of Barcelona, we recommend checking out Las Ramblas. A beautiful walkway surrounded by eateries, vendors, and more art, you can’t mistake the exciting energy you feel from that area.

Tapas and Paella

Finally, in order to fully embrace the lifestyle, make sure you get some tapas at a local bar. Tapas are basically like finger food on steroids. Whatever you do, make sure to get the Patatas Bravas! For a larger meal, you can’t ignore a classic paella dish.
