About this activity

Discover Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter in a new and unforgettable way – with a self-guided interactive walk that reveals a hidden skull-shaped route on your map.

Follow step-by-step directions through must-see landmarks such as the King’s Square, the Cathedral, the Jewish Quarter, Roman temple remains, and City Hall. Along the way, you’ll also uncover hidden corners and authentic spots that most visitors miss.

Your adventure includes 22 stops, each with engaging audio commentary, videos, or illustrations. Unlike a group tour, you can explore at your own pace, start whenever you want, and take breaks whenever you need.

✔ Playful elements: answer questions, earn points, and challenge your friends. ✔ Flexible: 1.5–2 hours or longer – you decide. ✔ Easy access: all you need is WhatsApp and about 2 GB of mobile data.

This isn’t just another walking tour – it’s an interactive journey through history, culture, and secrets of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter.
