I suggest you to take a walk through the gothic quarter, maybe visit the boqueria market and the cathedral. I would visit one of the many works of Gaudi in town.

If it is a sunny day I'd choose the Parc Güell, which is a great open sky space full of his works. If the day is cloudy or rainy I would suggest either the Sagrada Familia or the Casa Mila. Both great.

Please think about this before traveling, maybe a week before, and check the weather forecast, you may need to get tickets in advance. Sometimes, specially in high season, it can be difficult to get tickets the same day.

Join us on a comprehensive guided tour of Barcelonaʼs major highlights, with skip-the-line access to Gaudi´s world-famous masterpieces: La Sagrada Familia and Park Güell. On this day tour you will also discover the ancient Roman part of the city, the impressive Mountain of Montjuïc and much more! Enjoy a personalized guide service in the company of a small, friendly group. To ensure your comfort we also include pick up and drop off at your accommodation.

• Sample the best of Barcelona on this small group full-day sightseeing tour.

• Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the city, and tour the 1992 Olympic Village located on top of Montjüic Mountain.

• Avoid long lines at La Sagrada Familia, Gaudíʼs crowning masterpiece.

• Enjoy a guided tour inside the Sagrada Familia.

• Wander along the ancient Roman walls and narrow, winding streets of the Gothic Quarter before visiting a 2,000-year-old Roman Temple.

• Gain priority access to Park Güell, a beautifully landscaped park decorated with Gaudí's works.

• Stroll down the elegant Passeig de Gracia, marveling at Modernist masterpieces like La Pedrera and Casa Batlló.

• Get a taste of the Mediterranean lifestyle and enjoy Barcelonaʼs coastline through the cityʼs old fishing district and modern-day beach Platja La Barceloneta.

A day tour from Barcelona to Montserrat is a must for the majority of visitors to Barcelona. It's probably the one place that you have heard all about before they arrive. Keeping to our philosophy of giving you plenty of free time to explore on your own, but guiding you in the right direction, the first thing we do on arrival is explain the various options.

A visit to the sanctuary where the ‘Morenetaʼ is housed is a must. The sanctuary has been in use for almost 1000 years for those pilgrims and other visitors who have climbed this spectacular mountain.

Youʼll also have the opportunity to visit the fascinating Museum of Montserrat, withits five collections, ranging from Archaeology from the Biblical East to Modern Painting and Sculpture.

Besides these cultural possibilities, there are numerous walks around Montserrat, ranging from easy strolls to serious hikes. Each trail offers a different perspective on the stunning views over the surrounding landscape, many of which are peppered with small chapels and hermitages. You'll easily find a route to suit your taste and energy levels. But whether they're fairly strenuous treks or gentle walks, they all give you fantastic views to marvel at the unspoiled beauty of this protected natural park.

If you'd rather not walk at all, then another option is to take one of the two rack railways, or the cable car, offering yet more views of the area.

No visit to Montserrat would be complete without see the world-famous Black Madonna (La Moreneta), or listening to the oldest boy's choir in Europe, La Escolania.

Discover the most important works of Salvador Dali and get to know the artist on a personal level. This excursion will take you through the “triangleˮ of towns that most significantly shaped his life. Our expert guide will pick you up in a comfortable minivan and lead you through this small-group tour. While exploring the idyllic landscapes of the Costa Brava, you will uncover the mysteries and secrets of one of the most widely recognized Catalan painters, Salvador Dalí.

Explore the streets and corners that marked Dali's childhood. Dive into the work of a genius at a museum designed by the artist.

One of the most picturesque towns on the Costa Brava and a popular residence among artists. Take in the town's idyllic landscape, shaped by its emblematic white houses, rugged forms of coastal relief and the eternal swell of the sea.

Discover why Dalí considered this village his true residence. A stroll through the rooms of his house, decorated by the painter himself, reveals the intimate details of his life. You will also visit his studio and learn about his techniques.

6 hours. Train form Barcelona to Seville.

Self guided

Walk the capital and largest city of Andalusia. Situated on the lower reaches of the River Guadalquivir it is a popular destination for tourists.

Strolling around you'll find the Alcazar, the cathedral and Giralda or the popular Torre del Oro from the 12th century. The Plaza de España, not to be missed, holds images of every province of Spain represented in a mosaic with one of its main characteristics. The bullring or the Casa Pilatos are other must-see without forgetting the María Luisa Park.

You must also visit the Santa Cruz (historic district) and, of course, the Triana district, where the Flamenco dancers and the bullfighters originated

If you fancy seeing the city in a different way, with a local guide, a walking tour is opportune to choose. In two hours you ́ll be shown places where you will blend in with the locals, where no one will look at you as a tourist or treat you differently. We will take you to an alternative Seville, full of bars, shops, bookstores, art galleries and bohemian corners where you can discover this city from a different perspective.

Enjoy a 100% Spanish night with Flamenco, tapas and a walking tour in one of the most beautiful neighborhood of Seville, Santacruz or Triana. This Spanish evening offers a well-balanced dose of delicious food, a wide variety of Spanish wine, an awe-inspiring flamenco show as well as a tranquil walk in a charming neighborhood. Depending on the day we will choose the right Flamenco venue for you so that you either visit the Jewish quarter or Triana. The show takes approximately about an hour, which would be an intense hour. The evening continues with a leisurely walk and some more delicious tapas in taverns full of atmosphere. Depending on the season and the time your guide will take you to the best places where you will go “de tapasˮ the same way the locals do. In total you will visit 3 different traditional taverns sampling the most authentic food from each place.

4 days - 2 adults

Granada was once the last bastion of Al-Andalus (the historic Muslim name for the Iberian Peninsula) when the region was ruled by the Moors, and you can experience this vibrant influence on the city from the top down, starting with Granada's most famous landmark, the Alhambra. This imposing Muslim fortress was built atop a hill overlooking Granada and dates to the 9th century. It was rebuilt in the 14th century by the Nasrid Dynasty and served as a Moorish palace until 1492 when it became the Royal Court of Ferdinand and Isabella after the Christian reconquest.

Granada is also renowned for its delightful culinary scene, seasoned with sultry spicy flavors from its Moorish roots, and an equally Arabic-influenced street life. All this combines to make an abundance of exciting, animated restaurants and bars. For every glass of wine, soft drink, or beer you order, you receive a free portion of tapas, so ready yourself for a fantastic culinary adventure too. The show is all set to the tempo of flamenco, the spirited, colorful dance and music that developed in Andalusia and is an vital element of Granada culture to this day.

Suggested things to do:

• Explore the magnificent Alhambra and the surrounding Generalife Gardens, the crowning highlight of the city.

• Experience the nuanced flavors of Andalusian food at a restaurant like Picoteca 3Maneras

• Walk the labyrinthine streets of the old Arabic quarter, Albayzín (UNESCO World Heritage-listed in its own right for its well-preserved medieval Moorish street layout) and nearby Sacromonte. In these hilly, historic neighborhoods you can visit beautiful buildings like the Moorish citadel of Palacio Dar al-Hora, as well as many miradores (viewpoints) with spectacular panoramas over Granada.

• Spend time appreciating the diverse appeal of city center attractions like Granada Cathedral, the elaborate Catholic church built on top of the city mosque after the Reconquest of Granada, the Royal Church, burial place for Catholic kings, and the Madraza (medieval Koranic school).

• Browse the stalls at the Alcaicería, a traditional Arabic silk market now full of Andalusian treats, trinkets, and souvenirs.

• Catch a flamenco show at one of Granada's tablaos to appreciate the importance and majesty of this spellbinding dance and music form.

• Take tea at one of the atmospheric teterías (teahouses) on Calle Caldereria Nueva.
  

Embark on a full-day private journey from Granada to Ronda as we travel inland. Our first stop will be the unique white Andalusian village of Setenil de Las Bodegas, renowned for its distinctive homes carved into rock overhangs that loom above the Rio Trejo.

Next, weʼll continue to the charming town of Ronda, celebrated for its dramatic river gorge, El Tajo, which can be admired from the breathtaking 18th-century Puente Nuevo (New Bridge).

Afterwards, weʼll explore the highlights of this beautiful town, one of Spain's oldest, with origins tracing back to prehistoric times. A private local guide will take us on a 2-hour walking tour, beginning at Plaza de España, the town square, alongside its stunning church.

The city of Cordoba, located on the banks of the Guadalquivir, was the capital of the province of Betica during the Roman Empire and the Caliphate of Cordoba. The history of Cordoba has left us with architectural wonders such as the Mosque-Cathedral, the Roman Bridge and the old Jewish Quarter, among others.

Departing from Seville, Naturandaʼs guide will pick you up at one of the meeting points and take you to Carmona, a white village located only half an hour from the city and which deserves a short stop to admire its beauty.

After this short guided tour, we will set off for Cordoba, where we will arrive after approximately one hour of travel.

Once we arrive at our main destination, we will take a guided tour on foot through the historical centre of the city, visiting such significant monuments.

We will walk through the most significant streets of the city, passing by the Roman Bridge, the old Jewish quarter, the Royal Stables and the Cordoba Synagogue (closed on Mondays). We will also take a short walk through the famous and colourful Cordoba courtyards which will give us the opportunity to take wonderful photographs, which will always remain as one of the most beautiful memories of this excursion to Cordoba.

After getting to know the historical centre of Cordoba we will take a short break on our tour to enjoy Cordobaʼs cuisine as recommended by our guide, or enjoy your own lunch or picnic if you wish. You will also enjoy some free time in case you want to do some shopping.

After lunch, and to put the finishing touch to our day trip, we will visit the beautiful Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984. There, visitors will have enough time to enjoy this wonderful architectural monument, created in its origins for the Muslim cult, and which represents one of the main jewels of the historical and architectural heritage of Andalusia.

After our visit to the Mosque of Cordoba, we will return to the meeting point to board our transport which will take us back to Seville, where we will arrive after having enjoyed a magnificent day of excursion having visited places of extraordinary beauty.

As founder of Hidden in Spain, I am focused on high quality service. My passion for traveling has taken me to different destinations in America, Africa, Europe and Asia where I have been able to enrich my life with other cultures and people. During these trips I found an uncovered need. Most of the companies offered fixed and preplanned experiences to see the most touristic places everywhere but I was far from discovering the REAL country.

Thatʼs why I started this company, to offer real tailor made tours through Spain and let people discover the country as if they were traveling with a native guy showing them everything, not only the most touristic places but also all those off-the-beaten paths they wouldnʼt see if no one tell them about and the way people live in this wonderful country.

I also love skiing, watching sports, talking to friends (I mean real chats, not through social media), reading books and spending time with my wife and kids.

My other passion is marketing. Thatʼs why I have a bachelor in advertising and public relations and a Master in Marketing Management. I also got my Master in International Sales, both of them at ESIC in Spain.

And I couldnʼt forget, I am a passionate of beer!!! I love it!! I have tried more than 200 different beers from more than 20 different countries so far!! And counting up…
