About this activity

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Join a like-minded Local Host and explore the most festive parts of the city like Barrio Gótico as they’re decorated with hundreds of colourful lights, and soak up the festive atmosphere as you wander through the historic streets. Visit Fira de Santa Llúcia, which is Barcelona’s oldest Christmas market, and you’ll discover traditional decorations and gourmet gifts. Indulge in some festive treats and maybe pick up some special gifts for your loved ones or buy some unique tree decorations so you can add a little of the Catalan style Christmas to your own tree at home. Learn about local Christmas traditions from your Local Host as you wander through the market together, and snack on some festive sweets. Visit Barcelona’s elaborate Nativity scene that’s an annual feature outside the Town Hall, and you’ll be in the Christmas spirit in no time!

HOW IT WORKS

At CityUnscripted we connect curious travellers to Locals who are interesting and sociable people, who know the city well and who love to share their favourite places. They are not tour guides by profession. What we try to recreate is the feeling of having a friend in every city you visit; someone who can show you the places you’ll fall in love with and help you to connect with the most authentic soul of a place.

Book this meet-up and the CityUnscripted team will contact you within 24 hours and ask you questions about your preferences and interests, so they can match you with the right profile and assign a like-minded Barcelona Local.

Keeping in mind your personal answers, your local host will put together a bespoke itinerary just for you. Please note that this will be outlined but flexible. Your host will arrange the most convenient meeting place for you. If you feel like changing direction during the meet-up, or if your local host believes that you'd enjoy a sight or different experience, he/she will suggest and discuss with you changes to the itinerary.
