Barcelona, Spain

5 out of 5

Fantastic city. Allow plenty time to get back to the shop...... we nearly missed it!!! Was on the open top bus tour ( highly recommended) but hadn't accounted for how big Barcelona is ... had to jump off the bus and get a taxi to the ship to get back in time!!!

Excursion could have started earlier than 9:30 as so much to see. We found it a bit rushed.

Again a well oiled machine. Incredible considering the amount of passengers... from leaving the ship, getting our luggage and car .... 1/2 hour tops. Brilliant service.
