Honeymoon in Barcelona & Mallorca, Spain
Gaudí + Mediterranean coves + tapas crawls. Easy, energetic, romantic.
Why Barcelona & Mallorca, Spain works as a honeymoon
3 nights of Barcelona's architecture and food + 5 nights of Mallorca's hidden coves is a perfectly paced city-and-sea honeymoon. Mallorca's interior (Serra de Tramuntana) is wildly underrated.
