If your stay in Barcelona is limited to just a few days, Juliá Travel can arrange for you to see the most important aspects of a city in just a few hours from the comfort of an Air-conditioned bus on JULIA TRAVEL-ART TOUR.

Barcelona is a city so rich in cultural monuments that it would a crime not to see the most emblematic buildings celebrating the spirit of MODERNISME, Catalonia’s own version of Art Nouveau. A style that not only freed up pre-conceived notions of beauty but also allowed the Capital of Catalonia to expand its vision and think “big” ushering in an age where anything was accepted and in turn allowed art and architecture to flourish.

This tour focuses on the great works left by Barcelona’s most polemic and enigmatic genius: Antonio Gaudi. This bus tour will take you from the elegant streets of Passeig de Gracia to the awe inspiring views at the top of Parc Guell on a trip that will educate you on the wonderful world that Gaudi was able to create for his clients and the citizens of Barcelona. On this tour you will be able to see a wide variety of his body of work that enables his legacy to live on 100 years after he put pen to paper.
