Buckle up...we're off to Barcelona!

To fill the travel-shaped hole during lockdown, we've teamed up with Travel Curious to send you on virtual city tours, right from your WW app. So far we've been to Venice, Paris and Prague, and this week we're off to beautiful Barcelona!

From colourful Park Güell to its maze-like Gothic Quarter, Barcelona is a feast for the eyes. Add the soothing sounds of the ocean and mouth-watering Catalonian cuisine, and Spain's second largest city becomes a sweeping sensory experience.

Led by an expert tour guide who's lived in Barcelona for eight years, we'll be winding our way through the city's famous Gothic Quarter, soaking up the amazing architecture and unravelling its fascinating history with every step.

While we won't be seeing it during the tour, Barcelona is also home to the formidable Sagrada Familia, a 19th century basilica that's become a landmark symbol of the city. Then there's La Rambla (the city's infamous leafy boulevard), the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc, unique architectural marvels by Antoni Gaudí, parks, museums (including a chocolate museum!), football stadiums, and so much more. You can easily spend days exploring!

Visitors also flock to Barcelona for the food, where traditional Catalonian cuisine saturates the air with heady aromas and taste buds with unrivalled bliss. Barcelona is a true gastronomic paradise, and food will be a focal point of the tour, including restaurant recommendations.

Speaking of traditional dishes, head to the Experiences at Home Connect group on Sunday after the tour for an extended version of this article, complete with a WW spin on 10 traditional Catalonian recipes.
