Barcelona Photographic Tours...
Tip : The metro/bus/tram pass called the T-10 costs 9.25 Euros and allows 10 trips within the city with an unlimited date.
When clients are taken around the city on a day tour, they rarely use more than 5 trips. The T-10 is good value and works especially well for a couple.
Tours with a private vehicle are possible on request. This is mostly for weekend tours or arriving to Montserrat, Figueres, Girona etc.

Itinerary
The meeting point would be at your hotel.
We would start the tour by heading to the Boqueria market half way down the Ramblas - a visual delight for photographers! We will capture the colors and chaos as the locals go about their daily routine in this fantastic market.
From here, we will cut across the Ramblas and head towards the Gothic quarter. Here you will step back in time through the small alleyways and courtyards filled with soft light and great atmosphere. The old stone walls, gargoyles, gothic and roman architecture are in stark contrast to the street performers we will pass by and will make for some stunning images.
Now we will walk towards one of the marvels of Catalan Modernism - the Music Palace. This is one of the finest examples of Art Nouveau architecture in existence and is located in the Borne district, which we also visit.
The Borne district is an exceptional neighborhood to photograph, as you will see how the locals go about their day, devoid of any influences of tourism. You will see narrow dark streets with washing lines hanging over tiny balconies, locales with their rear doors open allowing you to see workers going about their chores, little old ladies walking back from the market, kids playing in the street..
From here we will take a short train ride on the metro to capture the stunning architecture of 2 of Antoni Gaudi's masterpieces - the Casa Mila & Casa Batllo. The unique footprint of Gaudi is undoubtedly one of the main reasons people come to visit Barcelona, and makes for a great ending to your tour.
At the end of the tour, i will escort you back to your hotel or to Plaza Cataluña.
