I'm sooooo glad I found your blog. We are going by car to Spain with our 5year old twins. Would you recommend us any place to stay? We are thinking about any town close to beach. We are thinking about Barcelona but we are not sure if it will not be too busy for us. What do you think?
Thanks

Thank you very much, Senona, for your comment. As you say, a private tour in Barcelona is a suitable way to discover this city too, especially if you are going to spend few days in Barcelona.

Thanks a lot for your comment, Pati. It is true that Barcelona could be a bit busy for a family with two children. If you are coming to Barcelona by car, I would suggest you stay in Castelldefels or in Sant Pol de Mar. Both towns are not large at all, are located beside the beach less than 30min and 60min drive from Barcelona respectively. I wrote two posts about these towns of Catalonia.
