Hello I did this tour 3 year ago , here is some info. I can share.....
My TD tour director was TODD, amazing guy ) super friendly and lots of fun... he will make you love Spain even more.... here are some tips....I did the double decker bus on day 1. prior to the welcome cocktail reception and dinner. and the Palaumusica on the free afternoon day 2.

Now tips.- near the square the Placa De Catalunya square , there is the main stop for the double decker buses Hop on Hop off.- go with the red buses company. 2 routes blue/red. do the one that takes you to the Gaudi sites first... by a 2 day ticket and ** ( be super early.** ) 8:00 am

Hope this helps, The Music Palace is @ walking distance from hotel, I would recommend a taxi on your way to the Palace because you have to be on time (cost 3-5 euros) and them walk back.

Santiago was my favorite! Bilbao is beautiful San Sebastian also very nice.

Enjoy the trip.
