Barcelona & Catalonia: A Feast for the SensesBarcelona & Catalonia: A Feast for the Senses

Overview

Devour colorful cuisine and world-class wine on a journey from the picturesque streets of Barcelona to the majestic monasteries of Montsant. You’ll explore Roman ruins, Gothic cathedrals, and UNESCO-designated monasteries, but the most memorable structure you see might be the one made of people: the acrobatic Castellers (human towers). Between tapas bars, vineyards, and paella feasts, you’ll sample a little bit of everything that grows between Catalonia’s idyllic mar i muntanya (sea and mountains).
