Some things to note

Some things to note icon

Please note:

  • Due to the popularity of La Sagrada Familia it is becoming extremely difficult to guarantee entry inside. If by chance the tickets cannot be secured, we will include an inside visit to Casa Batlló, the famous house remodelled by Antoni Gaudí. We will still visit La Sagrada Familia, with a full guided tour outside the structure. Status of the entrance will not be known until the start of our departure and will be advised locally by our Tour Director.
  • Audio guide headsets are no longer provided by the Guggenheim Museum. You will need to use your own smart phone with a QR code reader and your own earphones to listen to the audio guide. 
  • Please Note: Due to the nature of the activity on day 13 and Galicia’s unreliable weather, we cannot guarantee where we will be walking on the Camino Trail. Your Tour Director will assess the conditions in the days prior and will discuss the options with the group and choose the most suitable walking option on the day. The walk will not be too strenuous but there will be walking poles available for you to use.

Optional Excursions:

  • All optional excursions are based on minimum participants and are subject to availability. The length of tours advised is an approximate only. Tours can be booked on tour directly with your Tour Director or guide. We recommend arranging the booking at the beginning of the tour to avoid disappointment. Please note some optional tours may also be available on multiple or alternate days. Prices are a guide only and are subject to change without prior notice. Payment by cash is preferred as there are no guarantees that credit card facilities will be available. Please check with your Tour Director or guide locally for information relating to this. Credit card fees and exchange rates are at the discretion of your bank.
