Unsettled: Barcelona Highlights…

  • From the bustling markets and outdoor cafes, cobblestone mazes of the Gothic Quarter, La Sagrada Familia, and the endless world-famous landmarks, it’s no surprise that Barcelona is one of Europe’s most culturally rich cities. From beachside sunset tapas that extend into a wild night out, to the centuries-old architecture, there’s little the heart of Catalonia doesn’t offer.
  • Sample experience options: Hiking the Montserrat National Park, afternoon beach volleyball, skydiving over the Costa Brava, historical walking tours of different areas of the city (Roman history in the Barrio Gotico old quarters, for example), off-beat food tours of the city’s old markets and restaurants, yoga in an open-air Greek-style theater on Montjuic to live music, wine tastings and picnics on old vineyards, sunrise paddle boarding and yoga in the Mediterranean Sea, riding bikes up the coast to nearby beach towns, see Gaudi’s sunrise view of the city at Parc Güell, and much much more.

Our Experience Philosophy

Unstructured

This is not traditional group travel. We don’t follow a flag or hop on a bus. We explore, we get lost, we live in the moment. Yes, there are some key experiences we host and a deeply thoughtful curation and calendar of events to explore. However, we believe that experiences are more powerful when we step into them and take ownership over what happens in the moment. We provide the platform. You choose your own adventure.

 Unexpected

No two trips are ever the same. We engineer for serendipity, but we do not overthink it. We show up and find ways, in the moment and throughout the experience, to create secret meetups, popup adventures, or hidden ways to invite you along for the unexpected. We take risks when they show up and invite the opportunity to push ourselves. We’ll explore some of the city’s “unmissable” sights, sounds, and icons, but be prepared to embrace the unknown. 

Unbounded

We don’t limit ourselves in the depth of our conversations nor the outcomes we can imagine for ourselves. We remove the expectations placed on us, and create a space where you can push your comfort zones, challenge your perspectives, and discover new ways of working, living, and being. When we live and travel unbounded, we are unconstrained by limits. It’s a mindset and an approach to everything we do.

… And Still Unsettled

Don’t worry. This isn’t a free-for-all. As with any Unsettled experience, we’re obsessed with quality over quantity, and craft each experience with the intention of inspiring a deeper sense of growth, meaning, and adventure in our lives. We tap into the creativity, cultural context, local philosophy & spirituality, and innovative elements of each destination as a way to bring greater perspective and learning to our work and professional lives.

"Inspiring" "Unforgettable"

An inspiring, unforgettable experience. I absolutely loved my time with Unsettled and still keep in touch with the amazing people I met there (with reunions in 6 countries so far!). 

-Colin Decker, Creative Director

"Extraordinary"

It was an extraordinary experience, one that left me feeling affirmed, motivated and inspired. I’ve never experienced group travel in the way that Unsettled does it, and the co-curation of our time together made it so much more than just a trip.

-Shani Jamila, TED Speaker / Artist

"Life changing is an understatement"

-Rani El-Khatib, Managing Director of Dubai-based Creative Agency

"Break up the routine..."

If you’ve been wanting to break up the routine… give this experience a try. It just might prove to you that a totally new way to live is not just possible, but possibly right at your fingertips.

-Selena Welz, Senior Editor

"Raw..."

I had some of the most interesting, raw, and enlightening conversations of my life at Unsettled. For those conversations alone, the Unsettled experience has truly enriched my life!

-Jaqui Pawson, Senior Analyst
