The bus tour was an incredible experience—you literally get to see all of Barcelona. I recommend studying the map beforehand and getting off at the stops that interest you most. If you download the City Tour app, you can see where the bus is coming from so you don’t end up waiting in vain at the stop. I also recommend the 48-hour tour—there are so many beautiful places. We spent two hours just at the MNAC, and we only managed to see half of it, and then we continued with the tour. Excellent app, and I recommend getting tickets in advance—not for the tour, since there’s always availability, but the other sites sell out quickly.

The location is very beautiful, especially if you combine it with a hiking trip. However, I cannot give it a perfect score due to difficulties in using the booked services. You have to go to many different locations to pick up train tickets or gain access to the museum. These locations are not described in great detail. Also, the description mentions the option to choose between train + rack railway or train + cable car. In reality, we received a reservation for train + rack railway, with no option to choose the cable car.

It was the most amazing place to visit. Tickets where easy to pick up at station, and staff there were very helpful. First issue was getting the audio guide . Would be helpful for more information on the steps to receive that as would have helped. We only found out near end that information point was place to go. The monastery was stunning and the black Madonna was something I'll never forget . But definetly more practical information would be great assistance
