comprises several daily thematic tours. It's a pay-what-you-wish tour, with
a collection taken at the end for the guide. The Old City tour explores the Roman and me-
dieval history of Barcleona, visiting highlights in the Ciutat Vella. The Gaudí tour takes in
the great works of Modernista Barcelona. It involves two hops on the metro. Both tours
depart at 11am from Plaça Reial (and also at 4.30pm from April through September) and
last for about two and a half hours.
