Barcelona Movie Tours: See the City from a Different Angle

Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona

Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona

Last Updated: 03/07/2017

Barcelona is one of the most vibrant, cultural, historical and cosmopolitan cities on the Mediterranean Coast and that may just be why some of the biggest directors from around the world have chosen it as the backdrop for some of their greatest film masterpieces. From the towering Sagrada Familia to the magnificent Park Güell, it’s no wonder that Woody Allen, Manuel Huerga and Pedro Almodóvar decided on the Catalan capital as the base for such big hits as Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona and All About My Mother. So if you’re coming to the city and fancy an up-close look at some of the most famous scenes from these and more iconic films shot in Barcelona, then one of the many Barcelona movie tours on offer in the city would be right up your street.

What to Expect – Barcelona through a Film LensBarcelona Movie Tours, Arc de Triomf

Movies like Todo Sobre Mi Madre, Salvador, The Shanghai Spell and Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona have all been filmed in this popular European city and if you choose to lose yourself in a Barcelona film tour, you will be able to recreate famous scenes, find out fascinating facts and anecdotes about the movies and their stars and visit the exact places where directors took inspiration from Gaudí’s city. Whether you do so moseying down the bustling Las Ramblas or getting lost in one of the more intricate and quiet plazas in the Gothic Quarter, you will undoubtedly feel the atmosphere of great cinema all around you.
