Tour basics Travel tips money/ Time zones They are one hour ahead of GMT The currency in Barcelona is the Euro We recommend that students take enough to buy lunches, drinks and snacks during the day Around 20 euros per day should be more than enough, but Parents can make the decision. Students can leave money in the safe in the hotel and only take what they need per day.
Tour basics Travel tips packing The weather in Barcelona at this time of year is milder than in the UK (around 15⁰C/ 59⁰F), but it s not beach weather! We will be doing a lot of walking too. As such, I recommend that students pack the following essential items for their tour: Sensible and comfortable footwear A couple of warm jumpers or a light weight coat Comfortable and practical clothing for excursions: leggings, jeans, track suit, t - shirts
