The Barcelona Bus Turistic is a great way to get an overall look at Barcelona. You can also hop off and on to take a closer look at attractions. It gives you a feel of the town so that you can go back and visit what looked interesting to you. The staff are knowledgeable and helpful. Was well worth the... More

We bought a 2 day pass and found that the Tourist Bus was an efficient way to see the city...all the way from Montjuic to the eastern beaches near the Forum. Yes we could have used the Metro to get around but would have missed getting a sense of "the lay of the land". The pass saved a lot of... More

My boyfriend and I decided to buy tickets for the bus tour as we have enjoyed them in other cities we have visited and find they give you a good introduction to the place, as well as making getting around a bit easier when you are still disorientated. We bought the 2 day tickets for 31 euros each which included... More

Gave a whistle stop tour of the key sights and taking the two day ticket allowed the opportunity to get on and off on the second day and explore some more fully. More

It may be corny and super-touristic but we always head for the Hop on Hop off tour when we are in a city for the first time and this one in Barcelona did not disappoint. They give you the opportunity to tour most of the city, including the historical sites, museums, etc. along with a running commentary in 6-8 languages.... More

This is a great way for first time visitors to get an overall view of the city. All three routes can be done in one day, if you don't get off at too many of the stops. Park Guell is a must see, as is the Sagrada Familia church. A good option is to take the bus for one day,... More
