Barcelona is a city filled with tourists, sure, but it remains a surprising cultural, culinary and historical goldmine better enjoyed if you know how to look beyond the crowds.

And there's even more in the Cerca app - bonus content, maps, and info on the points of interest mentioned in our episodes. Listen, become inspired and plan all without worrying about having to hit pause and take notes - because the info you need is waiting for you in the Cerca App.
So whether you're planning a trip to Barcelona in the near future, are already there, or just want to learn about a place we love, you're in the right place. This is what we do.
Let's go to Barcelona!

Customer Reviews
Late listen
Listened to the show on way to Barcelona, but was well prepared for the trip because of it. SO much helpful information and tips! Thank you!
Amazing find!
Super well done! Leaving for Barcelona in 2 days and really grateful for this easy reference guide.
Comprehensive
I started listening to these episodes in preparation for a trip to Barcelona. There’s a lot of information and content and it seems well researched. It would have been handy to include pointers in each episode’s notes as listening (even at high speed) takes time. I did try the Cerca app referenced in the podcast but found navigation within the application clunky. To get the most of the content and suggestions listen and select well in advance.
