Montserrat was the highlight for me. Went up alone and found this deep, quiet calm I badly needed after a stressful year.
Solid solo itinerary overall. I just wish there was a bit more time built in around Park Guell since I ended up rushing through it.
As a solo woman traveller I felt completely safe in both Madrid and Barcelona on this trip. The package struck a nice balance of guided time and free time, which mattered a lot to me. Madrid gave me the palace and the plazas, Barcelona gave me the coastline and the mountain. Would recommend this to any first time solo traveller nervous about Europe.
Travelled solo for the first time and Madrid made it so easy. I sat with a coffee in Plaza Mayor for a full hour just watching the world go by.
Four nights sounds short but the two cities complement each other so well it felt complete. I loved ending in Barcelona with a slow walk along the coastline, the kind of quiet evening solo travel is made for.
Park Guell's tiled terraces against a bright Barcelona sky made my favourite solo photo of the trip.
