If you’re planning a solo trip to Barcelona, there are tons of things for you to do on your own. Here are my top 9 recommendations on things to do in Barcelona on a solo trip.
Read MoreIf you’re visiting Barcelona and have started your research, I’m sure you have heard the name Gaudí come up several times. Antoni Gaudí is a legend in Barcelona as he was one of the greatest architects in the world. His imagination and creativity is so fascinating and unique that you start to understand why he is such a big deal with each Antoni Gaudí location you visit. I managed to do four of the famous Gaudí sites and they were all beautiful and original in their own right.
Read MoreWhen I booked my trip to Barcelona, I was looking at different tours I could do while I was there. There were so many to choose from but what really caught my eye was the Three Countries in One Day Tour. At first, I was confused at what the third country was. I knew Barcelona was close to the French border but had no idea Andorra was even a country until I started looking into this tour. I was intrigued and decided to go with it.
Read MoreEveryone raves about La Sagrada Familia and Park Guell but I have to say that Casa Batlló was my favorite Antoni Gaudí site to visit. It was far less crowded than the other two popular sites and I was able view the rooms and architecture as long as I wanted without being overcrowded with tourists for the most part.
Read MoreOnce I booked a ticket to Lisbon, I knew I wanted to visit one of those dreamy beaches in Portugal. My friend told me that the Algarve region would be a great area to see those beautiful beaches and San Rafael Atlantico was the perfect place in Albufeira.
Read MoreBarcelona has an excellent transportation system and it was super easy to get around everywhere. I especially appreciated the Aerobus that transferred you to the city centre quickly and efficiently. It made my visit to Barcelona so much easier and more enjoyable.
Read MoreSince I was visiting Lisbon, I knew I wanted to make my way down south to visit the amazing beaches of Portugal. The question was how I was going to get there. My three choices were renting a car, catching the bus or riding the train. I decided to take the train and really enjoyed my First Class experience.
Read MoreThis was my first time flying with TAP Air Portugal and I was a little nervous since I’ve never flown with them before and there were very mixed reviews online. I needed a roundtrip ticket from Barcelona to Lisbon and my only two options were Vueling or TAP Air Portgual. TAP Air Portugal seemed to be a bit better with their reviews so I decided to go with them.
Read MoreWhen I was looking for a place to stay in Lisbon, I knew I wanted to stay in the Chiado or Bairro Alto area since it was central to mostly everything and known to be the trendy neighborhoods. I found Chiado Arty Flats and it had one of the highest ratings with excellent reviews so I knew this was the perfect place.
Read MoreThis was my first Antoni Gaudi building I visited and I was excited to learn all there was to know about one of the greatest architects of all time. All of Gaudi’s buildings are uniquely shaped, so you notice it right away when you approach it. Casa Mila had interesting curves sticking out like humps or waves and the balconies had interesting plant-like fences.
Read MoreI have used Airbnb in the past but this was my first time getting a private room instead of the entire home. This Airbnb rental looked amazing with the Baroque style floors (that are protected by the local Department of Culture) and the private balconies is just what I wanted to be immersed in the Barcelona culture.
Read MoreI have been seeing these Airbnb Experiences pop up on my Airbnb feed every time I go on their website and I finally decided to try one out in Barcelona to see what it was all about. There were several interesting and unique Airbnb Experiences and I wanted to do all of them but only had time for one, so I chose the experience called Photoshoot in Barcelona Secret Corners.
