¡Bienvenidos a España! Arrive at Barcelona International Airport and take included transportation to your eco-chic accommodations in the heart of the city.

Enjoy Catalonian cuisine at a local restaurant, get to know other like-minded travelers on the trip, and start feeling at home in Spain.
Explore Barcelona's major attractions with your Trip Leader on a private walking tour, like Passeig de Gràcia, Las Ramblas, Plaça Catalunya, and La Boqueria Market.
A must-see is the inspiring beauty of La Sagrada Família, an architectural masterpiece that broke ground in 1882 and is still unfinished. Marvel at its soaring spires and intricate façades, each telling a story of spiritual symbolism and artistic ingenuity.
Later in the evening, get ready to experience the authentic Spanish lifestyle. Remember, everything starts later in Spain, and your Trip Leader will guide you on what neighborhoods to explore, restaurants to try, and nightlife to check out.
Head over to the coastline to explore Barceloneta and the medieval districts of Barcelona like Born, Gothic, and Raval. You’ll get a local perspective on a private walking tour through these trendy neighborhoods and continue learning about Barcelona’s unique culture.
After that, you will travel to the picturesque city of Girona. With your Trip Leader, explore the town’s historic center, including Roman and medieval walls, the old Jewish quarter, the Eiffel Bridge, and the Onyar River.
When you arrive at your farmhouse accommodation outside of Girona, you can enjoy your first farm-to-table meal and learn the history of this unique place.
The morning greets you with the peaceful sounds of nature. As you enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, start your day with an organic breakfast. Today is a free day to relax or to be as active as you please.
The farmhouse offers yoga, massages, hammam spa service, swimming, and gentle walks along the surrounding hills. You can also join the farmhouse team to learn more about the garden and the farm animals.
Feeling a bit more adventurous? Return to Girona to enjoy the city's incredible variety of cafés and trendy shops.
Enjoy a group dinner with your new friends in the evening, sourced directly from the fresh products grown at the farmhouse.
We’ll leave the farmhouse in the morning and travel to Costa Brava, home to some of Spain's most breathtaking landscapes and enchanting Mediterranean seaside towns.
Our first destination is Calella de Palafrugell, a charming fishing village along the rugged coastline. Walking the promenade, you’ll feel the fresh Mediterranean breeze.
Indulge in delicious seafood or visit one of the pristine beaches, immersing yourself in the laid-back Mediterranean atmosphere.
Continuing our adventure, we will arrive at Pals, a remarkably preserved medieval village on a hill. Admire the historic architecture as you wander the cobblestone streets.
We drive through Catalonia’s countryside to reach Queralbs, a traditional small town in the Pyrenees.
Next, we board a rack railway that will take us up into the mountains to La Vall de Nuria, surrounded by peaks nearly 10,000 feet (3,000 meters) high and offering stunning views.
Here, you can enjoy a picnic lunch along the banks of the lake in Nuria and walk to explore this tiny hamlet at the base of the Pyrenees mountains.
In the evening, we return to the farmhouse and enjoy a farewell dinner at the farmhouse, sharing stories of your Catalonian experiences with your new friends.

"I have been on 8 trips (Colombia, Ecuador/Galapagos, France to Spain, Spain, Starter Costa Rica, Explore Iceland, Costa Rica Rain Forest, and Turkey) with U30X. U30X has been my favorite company to travel with and excels at finding the most unique and amazing accommodations and activities while maintaining their sustainability values. Their tour leaders are also phenomenal and are way more like friends that know the area than just a tour guide. I highly recommend traveling with U30X if you enjoy meeting like-minded travelers, having adventures of a lifetime, and have a genuine desire to explore and try new things." -Nicole R.
"""I had an incredible time in Spain with our guides, Becca and Angelo. I was so impressed by how much we got to see and do and sincerely appreciated the extent to which Becca and Angelo went to make sure the group was having the best time possible. They went above and beyond - restaurant recommendations, tips, helping us through any language barriers, arranging cabs for us to airport, and designing a fun, active itinerary. My favorite activity by far was the bike tour through Seville. It should definitely be a regular part of the trip! There is no better way to enjoy a city and burning off some of the tapas with a scenic bike ride. Each of the hotels we stayed at were great and in really convenient, central locations to the best sights in the city. I always felt that me and my belongings were safe in these hotels. While I wish we had better weather, Spain will always have a special place in my heart. If you travel to Spain with this group, back comfy clothes, shoes, and bags/pocketbooks - this is an active, fast-moving trip!"" -Samantha P."
"I love traveling with under30! The trip leaders are phenomenal and the trips are organized, immersive, fun, and 10/10. I didn't travel internationally before Under30, and after each trip, I gain confidence, knowledge, and amazing stories. It's been the adventure of a lifetime!" -Kalyn G.
