Grand Barcelona, Seville, and Madrid

Take a flight from London to Barcelona and upon arrival, make your way to your hotel and check in for a three-night stay. Widely considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, there is so much to see and do in the Catalan capital. Take a sunny stroll through the colourful mosaics of the Parc Guell or a wander down Las Ramblas - the city's lively neighbourhood overflowing with interesting shops and boutiques. Why not take the cable car up to the top of Montjuic for impressive views over the city? Come the evening, a delicious dinner of local tapas is a must! (Overnight in Barcelona)

A great way to easily get between the sights of the city is by your included City Sightseeing hop-on, hop-off tour, valid for 48hrs.
