Is a trip to Barcelona worthwhile in winter?

The answer is definitely yes. Even in winter, a holiday to Barcelona can be an unforgettable experience. The majority of tourists are drawn to the city during the warm months, so a winter holiday may not seem attractive at first. However, a trip to Barcelona in the cooler months, in the low season, offers numerous advantages. For one thing, you benefit from cheaper accommodation prices or even cheaper airline tickets and rental cars. For another, the city is much emptier in winter so you can stroll along the Rambla in peace or visit Park Güell with only a few other tourists. End the winter days in one of the numerous cafes and order a portion of churros, one of Spain's main specialties.

Travelling around Barcelona by hired car

Tarragona & Sitges

The offers for excursions by hired car are huge. In the south of Barcelona are the cities of Tarragona and Sitges. Since the sightseeings are not so conveniently located, a hired car is more frequently used on the spot. Tarragona is an old Roman capital, where you should definitely visit these highlights:

  • Historical city wall
  • Medieval Hospital
  • Roman Circus
  • Cathedral
Girona & Figueres

A second possibility for excursions by hired car are the cities of Girona and Figueres in the north of Catalonia. In the Middle Ages, Girona was one of the richest cities in Catalonia, allowing the construction of Romanesque and Gothic buildings. Girona has a wonderful old town where you can visit the cathedral and the former Jewish quarter.
