Overview

  • Venture beyond the sun-drenched postcards of Barcelona and into its rebellious heart. This tour uncovers the story of the 'okupa' movement—a decades-long struggle for space, dignity, and the very soul of the city.

This isn't just a tour about squatting; it's a journey into an alternative vision of urban life, asking a profound question: who has the right to the city?
