A new outlook on tours...

There was one thing I didn’t get enough of when traveling and that was shopping. It is difficult to be in a foreign country and know where the best area is to shop and who has the best vintage collections. There was one trip to Barcelona for a week, where I remember spending hours trying to find one vintage store a guide-book suggested. Needless to say I never found that store. One thing I wish I had found was this website; Antiques and Boutiques, which specializes in shopping tours in Barcelona. Tour Guides Niki and Lisa are two fabulous gals who moved from London and Milan to Barcelona three years ago. They fell in love with the gothic and modern touches that can be found in the street markets, buildings, people and menus, all in Barcelona.

Tours are arranged throughout the city, highlighting home decor, antiques, barrio shops, epicurean and fashion. What’s also great is that Antiques and Boutiques have a concierge program that caters to women who would expect their tours and hotels to be just as chic as them. You can rest assured that they will set you up in a trendy hotel, make reservations at the hottest restaurants and book your spa appointment.

So if you are ever in Barcelona and want your vacation to be as fabulous as your wardrobe let Antiques and Boutiques help plan your time.
