In a world where hectic activity often dominates our lives, finding moments to connect with nature and local culture is essential. Here is where Barcelona Discovery really shines, offering an alternative to conventional tourism through the slow travel philosophy. This Catalan company invites its customers to explore the land in a conscious, relaxed way.
Unique experiences close to home
Barcelona Discovery provides authentic, unforgettable experiences through private tours that enable you to enjoy Barcelona and Catalonia from a unique vantage point, far from crowded tourist routes. Travellers can discover hidden-away spots and unique places that conventional tourists seldom see.
The company’s offerings include a wide range of activities that allow their clients to fully enjoy the local land, culture and cuisine. Whether it’s enjoying a hot-air balloon ride over the impressive landscapes of the Volcanic Zone in La Garrotxa, kayaking around the Costa Brava, enjoying a picnic and wine tasting amidst vineyards or learning about the fascinating world of beekeeping and olive-oil tourism, each experience is designed to connect with the environment in an intimate, personal way and to reveal each region’s best-kept secrets.
A project defined by its values
As steadfast defenders of active, eco-friendly and high-quality tourism, environmental sustainability and the promotion of the local culture and economy are the cornerstones of Barcelona Discovery’s offerings. The team, which is made up of true nature lovers, is constantly looking for new places for their clients with the goal of showing them Catalonia from a different perspective.
Passion for the land and Barcelona Discovery’s values – innovation, proactiveness, positive thinking, empathy, respect for nature and the environment – are reflected in everything they do. With activities that include organising tours, corporate trips and events for both private clients and travel agencies and companies, Barcelona Discovery creates experiences that combine fun and learning, always led by local guides.
Sustainability, at the heart of each getaway
In addition to discovering the most iconic sites in Catalonia and highlighting its natural and cultural assets, Barcelona Discovery also actively promotes sustainable practices among its clients. For example, they recommend using public transport, walking or using non-motorised means of transport, such as bicycles, whenever possible; they advocate respect for the land and local communities; and they encourage travellers to care for each town or site they visit.
They also encourage recycling and reduced waste by promoting reusable containers and the responsible consumption of consume resources such as water, electricity and gas. Barcelona Discovery encourages its clients to consume only what they need, to be aware of the impact of their actions and to make the conscious choice to leave a positive mark on their environment in order to contribute to responsible, fair and sustainable tourism.
With its activities, the agency offers the chance to experience Catalonia in a different, more eco-friendly way so that, as they put it, visitors can “see what others don’t see and hear what others don’t hear”.
