The Gothic Quarter – also known as Barri Gòtic, is the area that stretches from La Rambla to Via Laietana, and from the Mediterranean seafront to Ronda de Sant Pere and is the centre of the old city of Barcelona.

It is known as the Gothic Quarter, as it used to be the location of a Roman village and some of the remnants still remain. Currently, the Gothic Quarter is one of the most exciting parts of the city as it’s home to some of Barcelona’s most famous landmarks, excellent restaurants, amazing restaurants and many squares (plaças) to relax and unwind.

Your tour will end with entrance tickets to the Barcelona Cathedral which you will be free to explore at your own pace.

The Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia is a gorgeous Gothic cathedral in the old center of the bustling Catalan city; it is also the seat of the Archbishop of Spain.

The construction of the Cathedral began at the end of the 13th century during the reign of King James II of Aragon and took around 150 years to complete. While the structure and internal decoration of the Cathedral were completed by the 15th century, its neo-Gothic façade was added at the end of the 19th century, covering the rather plain original exterior; the roof (which your tickets give you access to) was also adorned with an impressive range of gargoyles.

Enjoy this masterpiece as the capstone to your highlights tour.
