Hosted by Rick Steves.

The creative spirit of Spain's Catalunya - the land of Picasso, Gaudi, and Salvador Dali - is on a roll. Come along with the host, writer and producer of the popular public television series, Rick Steves' Europe, as Rick gets caught up in the festivity of Barcelona, enjoying the vibrant street scenes, tasty tapas, and pedestrian-friendly Gothic Quarter. Then we'll take a scenic side trip to mountaintop Montserrat, and finish with an artist's pilgrimage along the Costa Brava to Salvador Dali country. In seaside Cadaques, we'll visit Dali's home, and in nearby Figures, we'll experience his playfully surreal mausoleum/museum.
