Terrible product supported by people who do not speak English which amazes me since it’s pitched as travellers mostly speaking English as an internationally excepted language. Card sometimes did not work. Zones are confusing. You get zone 1 on the S line which isn’t the same as zone 1 on the R line. Product doesn’t work in all S zone 1 areas. Bus to AirPort also conveniently not included. Cost me an additional 14€ on top of the cost of the 72hour pass. Will never again buy this product.

Excellent way to experience Barcelona, a big city, too big to walk all day long. We bought a 96 hour ticket that took us to and from the airport and to all the places we wanted to visit. The app also did a good job, giving us suggestions how to get wherever we wanted, also the time. Bus, transfer to metro, transfer to bus etc. One thing that surprised me was that people with no luggage, prams or ailments insisted on using the elevator rather than escalator in the metro. We had a pram and wished people would warm up the the escalator more in Barcelona.

Bought a 3 day/72hr card. Everything I read told me it would last 72 hrs from when it was first used. Mine stopped working after 52 hrs. I contacted Hola Barcelona, as I bought the ticket directly from them. They provided absolutely no help other than telling me to speak to the staff in the metro (there were no staff at some stations).
I found some staff at one metro, none of them spoke English, and so I used my very beginner Spanish to describe the problem, to which 2 different staff members told me that the 3 days was up. Cos the 3rd was day 1, 4th was day 2, and 5th was day 3. We had this conversation at 2pm in the afternoon so I don’t think they were implying that the 5th was my last calendar day, because otherwise I should have still been able to use the card for the rest of the day and they would have realised that and helped me get a new card.
They were really trying to argue with me that my 72 hours were up because the 3rd at 8am (when I first used the ticket, which would be 0 hours to anyone with a normal capability to do elementary maths), was day 1, and then the 4th at 8am was 48 and the 5th at 8am was 72. I had to give up because how can you argue with people that are that stupid? Not to mention they both yelled at me in Spanish and made me feel like absolute crap about the whole situation, like somehow I was the stupid one in this.
In conclusion, don’t buy these cards cos they don’t work and the customer service you’ll get is among the worst I’ve ever experienced. I’m going to try and take it up with my credit card and dispute the card under false advertising.
The worst part is I have no money left cos I’m heading home tomorrow and thought my card would get me to the airport no trouble. So not only is the product awful, they’ve left me in a very precarious situation and not apologised once.

Easy and cheap way to travel around Barcelona. I found out about the card through the official public transport site (TMB). The only thing is, I wish getting hold of the card was easier, purchasing it online is easy however then you need to find a station where you can retrieve the card using a code. At the airport it was not very straight forward and involved a long walk without any signposts. I think more people would take advantage of the card if it was available on an app like a QR code. Otherwise I highly recommend.

We travel as a family and bought 96hours card for each of us, hoping to save time and cost for our 5 days trip in Barcelona. I would say it does save the trouble of queuing for tickets, only when the cards work well. Sometimes you may spend more time waiting for the Metro staff to come for help than queuing for tickets. For cost saving it really depends on your planning and the way you travel from/to the airport.
1. Confusing description
The websites says it includes Montjuïc funicular, which as a tourist I naturally thought it is the transportation up to the top of mountain Montjuic. But later we found out it is not. It only means the short railway from the Metro station to the Montjuic cable car station ticket office and the cable car fee is another 9Euro for one way. You can take the bus to the mountain top though. Maybe it is my misunderstanding but it can be more helpful if the description can clearly states that it is the railway connecting to the cable car station and cable car to the mountain top is not included.
2. Hassles to collect the card
We bought online and followed the instruction to collect the cards from the machine at any metro station. Unfortunately, we could not find anywhere on the screen for card collection. We called the staff for assistance. She was very helpful and told us that there should be normally a button on the left lower corner of the screen to collect the card, but somehow it was not there, probably due to system problem. We tried at another station and it didn't work either. Finally, we got our cards printed after 4 or 5 hours at the third station we visited.
3. The paper card did not work
While we thought it would be easy to travel around with our cards finally printed now, one of our cards did not work on our second Metro trip. We have to call the staff again for help and he let us in. Then the card did not work on the bus. We decided to ask for a new card to be printed at the metro station after we got off the bus since there are still several days ahead. But the Metro staff refused to do so because the card suddenly worked again! This magic card switched on/ off several times during the rest of our journey.

We purchased the 5 day Barcelona Family card and we are so glad we did!. We visited two attractions each day and it more than paid for itself. So ok it doesn't include La Sagrada Familia or Park Guell but it does include so much else, including the amusement park at Tibidabo, a boat trip, the quirky Wax Museum, the Zoo, the aquarium, Poble Espanyol and CosmoCaxia. Loved it all. The travel card makes travel a doddle - we used the Metro, the trams and the buses. Well worth it. We ordered online and printed out the email before we left and then exchanged the email for our tickets at the Tourist Office at the airport.

It was very useful when we wanted to see 2-3 different attractions far from each other.Specially when the average temperature was 28 C.and walking long distanve iis nott a good option.

This pass simplified our transportation needs knowing we could get where we needed to go. Note, the office for pickup is underground.👍😉

The tour guide was very rude, the bus is extremely slow and takes ages to get to the pretty disappointing spots and sooo expensive, definitely wouldn't reccomend.
