Nou Camp Stadium Tour

Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss, English and Catalan footballers led by Joan Gamper, the club has become a symbol of Catalan culture and Catalanism, hence the motto “Més que un club” which means “More than a club”.

Unlike many other football clubs, the supporters own and operate Barcelona.

It is the second most valuable sports team in the world, worth $3.56 billion, and the world’s third richest club in terms of revenue, with an annual turnover of €648.3 million.

The official Barcelona anthem is the “Cant del Barca”, written by Jaume Picas and Josep Maria Espinas.

Port Aventura

For those who like to experience the thrill of white knuckle rides this is for you.

The Dragon Khan with 8 inversions this formerly held the record as having more inversions than any other roller coaster.

It also held the world record for the tallest vertical loop on any roller-coaster.

The ride built by Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M) opened on 2 May 1995 and was one of the two roller coasters that Port Aventura had when it opened. Consistently ranks among one of the world’s best roller coasters in polls.

Of course there are plenty of the more subtle rides for those who don’t need that rush.
