I recently visited Barcelona for the third time in seven months, I went from Crushing on Barcelona, to a full-blown love affair. I’ve done the touristy stuff like visiting Gaudi institutions Park Güell and the Casa Batlló but I still feel like there’s so much more to explore.
This is where my three-hour Hidden Barcelona tour from Urban Adventures comes in. Despite my previous visits to Barcelona I enjoyed seeing another side to Barcelona and learning about it from a local.
It also enhanced my living like a local experience that I was getting via HouseTrip. HouseTrip is a revolutionary holiday booking site where you live in local accommodation alongside locals, not tourists. They have an incredible 2400 holiday rentals in Barcelona alone! Staying in a HouseTrip rental also makes it easy to Eat Like a Local in Barcelona as I did. The cuisine is always one of the highlights when I visit Barcelona.

The Hidden Barcelona tour offered by Urban Adventures is 3 hours long and costs €26. Advanced bookings are required.
