About this experience
World-renowned mystifier and inventor of the 20th century Salvador Dali, Marquis de Pubol, will be happy to guide you through the labyrinths of the Gothic Quarter. You will explore its streets and historical monuments, complete unusual tasks, and make many discoveries. And all this - with theatrical performances and Dali's expression.
What to expect
Quest format - free from seriousness and banality
This is exactly what Salvador Dali avoided. I will tell you about Barcelona in the style of a great fantasist: with expression and bright performances, in which you will also participate. My main task is for you to believe that you are walking with a genius who appeared just for you. The quest will captivate children: solving riddles, they will receive prizes and easily remember the main things about the city. Even knowing the main route in advance, you will never guess what surrealist trick Salvador will offer you!
Labyrinths and secrets of the Gothic Quarter
The adventure will start at the edge of the old district, near the artistic café 'Four Cats' - I will tell you why it became legendary. We will meander through the alleys, discussing their names, visit the Cathedral, the Bishop's Palace, and the tallest palm tree in Barcelona. You will unravel a couple of secrets and learn amazing and sometimes shocking facts about the history of the Gothic Quarter. You will also hear about Barcelona as a whole and how two geniuses - Dali and Gaudi - are connected. We will finish the walk at the Royal Square, where we will 'recreate' one of Dali's works ourselves.
Who is this tour for
Travelers of all ages. Adults will appreciate the effect of presence and unexpectedness, and children will remember how much fun they had walking with an unusual person with a long name and strange mustache. And everyone will learn more about Barcelona.
