Airline tickets to Barcelona introduce a city that has it all. A glorious sea-front location, ancient winding streets, world-class art and late-night bodegas are all waiting to be explored.

Things to do

Visitors travel to Barcelona to explore tree-lined boulevard Las Ramblas, the maze-like Barrí Gòtic (Gothic Quarter) and Gaudí's fantasy architecture, which permeates the city. Tanned bodies colonise beaches in Barceloneta while breezy Montjuïc mountain provides a welcome escape.

Shopping

A ticket for Barcelona's Shopping Line bus visits sleek boutiques on upmarket Avenida Diagonal. Passeig de Gràcia street offers expensive leather handbags, while quirky fashion and curios can be found in the Born and Barrí Gòtic districts.

Restaurants

Flights to Barcelona introduce a city where visitors can dine until midnight and beyond. Choose from Old-Town tapas bars to steaming paella in beach-front Barceloneta and speciality snails, flaming pots and spit-roast chickens at Los Caracoles in Barrí Gòtic.

Nightlife

Barcelona city breaks offer everything from techno to tango in Barrí Gòtic. Cocktails are mixed in the Born district while the Barceloneta and Villa Olímpica districts are great for refreshing beach-front beers. Book a ticket to Barcelona's cultural bastion, the Gran Teatre del Liceu.
