How We Got There
We booked pretty late about 1.5 out from our trip, but I believe we could have found a cheaper flight. We paid $590 per person roundtrip from Chicago directly to Barcelona on Norwegian airlines. This is a low cost airline so don’t expect anything free. The nice thing is you can order food, drinks and snacks directly from your seat. You just swipe your card and the attendant will bring you your food a few minutes later.
Where We Stayed
Because we were in a group of 5 we wanted to all stay together. In Europe, many hotels only allow for two people rooms either a king bed or two twin beds so we chose to stay at Airbnbs.
We stayed here for two nights and then we stayed here for two additional nights.
Sights to See
- Park Guell
Buy tickets here ahead of time because they sell out! It was under construction a bit when we arrived via taxi. Beautiful views of the city.
- La Sagrada Familia
The famous church you should also buy tickets ahead of time here, because they sell out too.
- Arch de Triomf
Places to Eat
- Catalana
Churros and THE best sangria!!
Last, you can get Tapas anywhere. They were pretty affordable you just pick out the ones you want and they heat them up for you!
