- Airport transfer · Arriving by air
The local transport line budgets getting around, not a private transfer. Check whether your stay includes one.
- Travel insurance · An international trip
Medical cover abroad and trip cancellation. Priced by the insurer for your party and dates.
- SIM or eSIM · An international trip
Roaming or a local data plan for the days you are away.
- Tips and service charges · Any trip
Customs differ by country; restaurants and drivers may expect them.
- Souvenirs and gifts · Any trip

About Barcelona
On Spain's Mediterranean coast, Barcelona pairs a beach with a walkable grid and a medieval old quarter, while the metro covers longer distances. Gaudi sites such as the Sagrada Familia and Park Guell are ticketed and often sell out ahead, whereas the beach, the Gothic Quarter and most viewpoints are free. Summer is hot and crowded, spring and autumn are mild, and winter stays gentle for Europe.
