Travelling as a family in August can be a challenge: heat, timetables, short attention spans and finding plans that both children and adults can enjoy. That is why Reus is an excellent choice for a family summer break. The city is easy to explore, pleasant to walk around and full of cultural and leisure options that do not require long journeys.
When you stay at Hotel Centre Reus, you are just a few steps from the historic centre, shopping streets, terraces and some of the most interesting places to discover the city with children.
Gaudí Train: a different way to discover Reus
One of the most attractive family plans this August is the Gaudí Train, a summer initiative designed to explore Reus in a comfortable and enjoyable way. It allows visitors to discover different parts of the city while children enjoy the ride.
According to Reus City Council, this initiative runs during the summer and includes access to tourist content through a QR-code audio guide. It is also linked to local commerce, turning a stroll through the city into a fuller experience.
It is an ideal plan for families who want to get to know Reus without walking too far and combine tourism, local shops and summer atmosphere.
Gaudí Centre: interactive culture for the whole family
Another must-see when visiting Reus with children is the Gaudí Centre, located in Plaça del Mercadal. This interpretation centre offers a visual and interactive way to discover the life and work of Antoni Gaudí.
Reus Tourism also presents the city as a family-friendly destination, with guided visits, children’s workshops and activities linked to the Gaudí Centre, designed so that children and adults can learn together about the Reus-born architect. You can find more information in the Reus with family section.
In August, there are also family activities such as the puppet show “Gaudí, the man who spoke to dragons”, with dates in July and August at the Gaudí Centre, according to the Costa Daurada agenda.
Walks, terraces and rest in the city centre
One of the greatest advantages of Reus is that it can be enjoyed on foot. The historic centre brings together squares, shops, restaurants and modernist buildings, making every walk feel worthwhile.
After a morning of visits, there is nothing better than stopping at a terrace, having a cool drink or returning to the hotel for a rest before continuing with afternoon plans. In summer, this convenience makes all the difference, especially when travelling with children. The rooms at Hotel Centre Reus offer the comfort you need after a day of walks, culture and family activities. Its central location also makes it easier to organise your break without relying constantly on the car.
