The place where you will meet your guide and pick up your bikes.
You will start your tour just outside Royal Square. It is there that the very first work of the master in Barcelona is located - the lanterns. They are made in the spirit of Roman mythology. And by the way, they caused a serious scandal in Barcelona!

Placa Reial
One of the most beautiful squares in Barcelona is located a step from the Ramblas in the center of the Gothic Quarter. It is called Plaza Real, which translates as Royal Square. It was named in honor of the Catholic Kings Isabella and Ferdinand and outwardly corresponds to its name.

Placa de Sant Jaume
The next place is Placa de Sant Jaume. At the moment, the square contains several administrative buildings of the city, including the governor house.
This square in the historic center of Barcelona was named after the medieval church that was located here (the monument was destroyed in 1823).

It was on this square that many important events in the life of medieval Barcelona took place, and it was here that the plague epidemic began, which almost completely devastated the city in the Middle Ages.

La Barceloneta
Then you will head to La Barceloneta beach. Now the beach can be considered exemplary. For the cleanliness of the coastline, it received a special Blue Flag award. Barceloneta is the oldest public beach in the city. Over the decades, it has gained popularity among both locals and visiting tourists. Barceloneta is an interesting tourist attraction and is one of the world's top beaches.

Basilica de la Sagrada Familia
The Sagrada Familia is a truly unique architectural phenomenon, it is a bridge that connected generations, epochs and gave an exceptional opportunity not only to touch history, but also to join its creation. For a century and a half, the structure has been built, growing, and changing.

Passeig de Gracia
Paseo de Gracia is the main street of Barcelona. Here are located the bright masterpieces of architecture of the early 20th century - Casa Mila, Casa Morera, Casa Batllo, etc., acquaintance with which will help you better understand Spain and its culture. There are also many fashion boutiques and shopping centers on Passeig de Gracia.

Casa Mila - La Pedrera
Then we will go to La Pedrera. For its whimsical appearance, this house was nicknamed the Quarry by the Barcelona people, which means quarry, for its uneven and ponderous façade. It became the pinnacle of Gaudi's engineering. Here the architect made all his wildest dreams of the architecture of the future come true.
At first, the locals did not speak too highly of Gaudí's new creation. Now Casa Mila is a universally recognized masterpiece of architecture, no visit to Spain can do without a photo against its background.

15 minutes • Admission Ticket Not Included

Casa Batllo
Casa Batlló is the second great building on Passeig de Gràcia by Antoni Gaudí.
From the outside, the facade of Casa Batlló looks like it was built of skulls and bones. The "skulls" are actually balconies, and the "bones" are pillars.
To work on this building, Gaudí was inspired by the colors and forms of marine life.
Casa Batlló is perhaps the most unusual house in Barcelona. Its whimsical balconies look like skulls, columns on bones, and the façade itself is like a giant dragon. There is not a single right angle inside the house, and the entire interior, created by Gaudí, looks more like the scenery of a science fiction film.

Las Ramblas
Finally, we will visit La Rambla. It seems like a completely single street, in fact, it has five parts, each of which has a unique name. In recent years, the sixth part of the Rambla has been outlined - this is a pedestrian bridge, erected for the 1992 Olympics. It starts from Portal de la Pau and leads to the popular Maremagnum shopping mall.

La Rambla is an iconic place in Barcelona. Here the color of the local bohemia mingles with modern youth and admiring tourists, and the best architectural styles coexist with fashion couturier shops and the best coffee shops. It is difficult to find a traveler who has not visited La Rambla when arriving in Barcelona. For many years, it has been the city's favorite pedestrian street, and a walk along it has become a mandatory ritual.

Delphina is an outstanding guide. She maintained a great pace, provided terrific information, and made it fun for all of us to be with her. Highly recommended.
Best way to learn about a city
Lhallick, 01-07-2021
Had a wonderful time, was the best way to begin a Barcelona adventure. Hannah was funny, knowledgeable about the city and all about the art. While bike riding Hannah pointed out the different neighborhoods, so I easily got a good bearing that helped countless times in finding museums, shops and restaurants later in Barcelona. And the Gaudi works; from buildings to parks to of course the Sagrada Familia, astounding! Hannah easily related the history and pointed out the features that set him apart. I can only suggest everyone arriving in Barcelona take this bike tour, I’m so glad that I did. Thanks Hannah
