Barcelona, Spain (SPX) Feb 22, 2008
For those travelers that enjoy the convenience and freedom of sightseeing sans a tour guide, Casanova, the Catalan capital's most stylish hotel, offers guests a hand-held GPS iTour to experience Barcelona's top cultural attractions. Key points of interest, such as Gaudi's Sagrada Familia and La Pedrera as well as the Boqueria market, museums, restaurants and shops, are included in the iTour digital tourist guide along with photos and landmark history.

Located in the heart of Barcelona, the 124-room Casanova Hotel is in the ideal starting point for guests to begin their walking tour of the city. The portable iTour has a city map with satellite technology, convenient even in the most narrow and hidden streets. The iTour can be used in three ways: a programmed route that guides you to the main points of the city; writing the street and number in the device; or free navigation. The tours are multilingual, available in English, Spanish and French. The iTour costs 5 Euros (approximately $7 USD) for 12 hours, with a deposit of 121 Euros.
