Quality
This indicates the overall quality of the tour operator's products. A low rating does not mean it is not good - it just means that it does not include as much, or perhaps is of a more standard quality than the higher quality tours. For example, a 3 star quality rating means that it is a more standard/economical tour, while 5 stars is a very luxurious tour that often includes a lot of amenities. -

1Dinner Party: Barcelona
Welcome to Barcelona! Enjoy an included arrival transfer to the hotel followed by an evening welcome briefing. Set off with your CEO and new travelling companions to enjoy a delicious tapas dinner. There's no better way to dive into the Spanish culture than by enjoying the local gastronomy in and amongst friends.
Barcelona is known for the iconic works of Antoni Gaudi including the famous Sagrada Familia and Park Guell, and is home to Lionel Messi's football club, F.C Barcelona. It's a cultural hub and offers a wide array of trendy restaurants offering mouth-watering cuisine. If you have extra time, we recommend taking extra time to enjoy everything this incredible city has to offer.
- Meals Included:
- Dinner
Exclusive Inclusions:
Tasty Tapas
Food is a universal language, and there's no better way to get to know a new friend, or a new community, than by breaking bread together and digging in to a delicious meal. Legend has it, King Alfonso X determined that the best way to drink wine without falling ill was to accompany it with a small snack. Others claim that tapas were the result of bartenders covering patron's drinks with bread, meats, and cheeses in order to avoid anything from falling in. Regardless of the origin, the trend caught on and tapas became one of the most popular styles of cuisine in Spain. Feel free to discuss the origin of tapas with your new friends while munching on bread with tomato, cured meats, and cheese on this tapas dinner party - or don't - who are we to tell you what to talk about?
Meet Your CEO and Group
Your opportunity to meet your CEO and fellow travellers, and learn more about your tour. Opt to join the group for a local meal afterwards. Don't forget to see the notice in the lobby (or ask reception) for the official time and place to meet up with the group.
