Self-initiated Cultural Site Visit
I really wanted to see some of the smaller areas of Barcelona, so I decided to go on a bike tour that took us through the Gothic Quarters of Barcelona, as well as along the beach. It was easy because the group met in front of the Cathedral, and the bikes were electric so none of us got tired too easily. My favorite part was at the end when we got free tapas and drinks at the restaurant where Picasso had his very first exhibit!
I would highly recommend anyone to take part in this bike tour during their first few days in Barcelona because it provides a really great overview of the city and is helpful in understanding where the tourist and local attractions are located. I also think its a really great way to start the trip off with a positive attitude - the leaders are super helpful and kind to the point where I got my tour guide's email and am hoping to reconnect with her soon.
