Choir Tour in Spain

Days 1-2

Your group will take an overnight flight to Barcelona, where your Joshua Expeditions guide will meet you in the airport. A private coach will take you to the city center, where your group will visit the Gothic Quarter and wander down the ancient narrow streets, stopping along the way in beautiful plazas and courtyards. You will tour the interior of Barcelona Cathedral, which is an excellent example of Catalonian Gothic architecture, then your group will stop for lunch in the area. During the afternoon you will be able to stroll through La Rambla, a tree-lined pedestrian boulevard filled with street vendors and performers, and before the day ends, you will have a chance to visit La Pedrera, the apartment house designed by Guadi in the early 1900s. Dinner and devotions at the hotel will conclude your first day in Spain.

Day 3

Following breakfast, your group will board the coach and take a local guided panorama tour of Barcelona, where your first stop will be the Poble Espanyol. Built for the 1929 World’s Fair, this recreated Spanish village contains 10 centuries worth of Spanish architecture as well as numerous cultural exhibits and presentations. Later, you will spend the afternoon enjoying the beaches of Barcelona before heading out for a Spanish dinner accompanied by a Flamenco dancing show. The day will conclude with group devotions at the hotel.

Day 4

This morning your choir group will perform at its first venue. In the afternoon, you will visit Park Güell and see the Sagrada Familia, Gaudi’s unfinished, controversial cathedral. A local dinner will conclude the day before heading back to the hotel for devotions.

Day 5

Your second choir performance will be scheduled for this morning, and then your group will take the afternoon to relax at the beaches of Barcelona. You will stay through dinner then head back to your hotel for devotions and discussion.

Day 6

This morning you will depart for the venue of your final performance. The remainder of the day will include a trip to one of the surrounding areas near Barcelona. There are quite a few options from which to choose, and your Joshua Expeditions coordinator will help you select the perfect fit for your group. Following dinner, you will return to the hotel for a final night of devotions.

Day 7

After an unforgettable journey through the Iberian Peninsula your group will board the flight toward home.
