School Sports Tours in Spain

Morning

Enjoy the 17-hectare green paradise that is Park Güell. Learn about the park’s biodiversity, as well as the design of the park by Antoni Gaudí, an architect who is considered the master of Catalan Modernism.

Then, head for a spot undiscovered by most tourists: the Bunkers del Carmel, old civil war bunkers situated on the Turó de la Rovira hill. Between admiring the spectacular city view, listen to your guide as they talk you through their creation for the Spanish Civil War, their use as housing for 7% of Barcelona’s population in the 1950s and the rehousing of occupants in the run-up to the 1992 Olympic Games.

Afternoon

Visit Camp Nou, the largest stadium in Europe and the home of FC Barcelona. You can even have a virtual reality experience and relive the stadium’s most famous goals.

Evening

Take part in your next fixture.

Morning

Learn about the architecture of the Sagrada Familia, an unfinished Roman Catholic church masterminded by Antoni Gaudí. Originally, another architect was in charge, but when Gaudí took over, he changed the project and would even modify things after construction to completely match his vision.

Afternoon

Challenge yourself to hike to the summit of Tibidabo. At the peak, admire the cathedral, visible from everywhere in the city.

Evening

Reward yourself after an active day with a flamenco show.

Morning/Afternoon

Relax on Barceloneta beach, before taking a cable car to Montjuic, a hill overlooking the harbour. Then, visit the Picasso Museum to learn about Spain’s most famous artist. The museum is home to thousands of Picasso’s works and provides an opportunity to uncover Barcelona’s influence over the artist.

Evening

Play hard as this is your final fixture. Then, bond with your team over a group dinner.

It might be home time, but it’s not over. The teamwork and sporting skills you’ve developed will follow you back to the pitch at home!
