Barcelona: The Movie Walking Tour

Although it is nowhere near the level of New York when it comes to featuring in movies, Barcelona has its fair share of famous Hollywood spots and this tour allows you to discover all the secrets of places seen in the likes of Vicky Christina Barcelona, All About my Mother and Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (also known as The Parfum), among many others.

You will also learn about the times that famous actors and actresses spent in the city, such as Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson and John Wayne. Go to the filming locations and even talk to the people that worked on the films about their experiences, and also see pictures along the way so you can really picture how the scene was filmed.
