Overview

This Experience is provided by a private local.

Join me for an intrusive walk through El Born, a neighbourhood renowned for its traditionally Spanish architectural beauty. We will meet in front of the Catedral del Mar and venture together into this diverse and vibrant area of Barcelona. In the course of this 90-minute walk, you will get to expand your architectural knowledge and gain insight to how us locals were influenced by this area’s diversity and how it affected our personal style.

Overall, a fantastic way to experience Barcelona’s unpolished charm, away from all the noisy tourist crowds.
