A surreal journey into the capital of Catalan

A surreal journey into the capital of Catalan In a word, the capital of Catalonia is surreal. Dreamlike, whimsical, daring. It’s no wonder the likes of Dali, Miró and Gaudi sought to create their works of wonderment here. After the 1992 Olympics, Barcelona went through a rebirth, and is now one of the hottest destinations in all of Europe. Swinging nightlife, sultry beaches, the sound of the language (hint : it’s not Spanish) collides to create a sensuous, sublime city. Learn more about Barcelona

    A comfortable trip |
    "My friend and I traveled with renfe three times during our trip in Spain. The trains were new and clean and our seats were spacious. There was no delay and we were given enough time to board the train. We have traveled by train in Europe (in Denmark, Czech Republic, Germany) several times. This was by far the best experience. "

    No food for 1st Class tickets ? |
    "I was misled to think that all 1st class tickets come with food. Was disappointed to find out on board that there is more than one type of 1st class tickets ; in fact I was embarrassed cos I had other guest-travelers whom I purchased the tickets for. Renfe should make this clear in their ad. "

    Dream Journey |
    "My trip from Bilbao to Barcelona through Renfe was excellent. I really appreciate the timings followed by Renfe. My only suggestion is to provide free Wifi for the passengers, atleast who travel in first class. "

    good trip |
    "Train was on time for the most part. A lot of leg room. A bit pricy for being almost 7 hours "
