Overview of your Barcelona tour

Exclusive private half day tour to Sitges, a must see place outside Barcelona. Mercedes Benz Van / Private driver and private guide / Pick up or Drop Off at Barcelona's Cruise Ship Port and Airport included in the price. Visit Sitges, a charming fishing town with beatiful Art Nouveau architecture and delicious traditional Spanish restaurants by the sea. Its beaches are some of the best on the Mediterranean coastline. Sitges has been a favorite seaside resort town since the 19th century. It's got gorgeous Modernism/Art Nouveau Architecture as it was the cradle of the so called "Indianos" or "Americanos". Those who migrated to Cuba in the 18th century in search of fortune and, on their return, build their own lavish mansions in town to show their adventure had been a great success. You will relish Mediterranean delicacies in a traditional Spanish restaurant by the sea at the end of the tour, should you wish so.
