It was a good experience... I only had trouble the first time I used it, trying to find a ticket machine to validate my pass and print the tickets... After that, it was very convenient and helpful to have activated my pass online.

The Hola Barcelona service is top-notch. You can book conveniently online, pay in advance, and pick up your ticket whenever and wherever it’s most convenient for you. I recommend it to everyone, especially because with just one ticket, you can access all forms of public transportation and get around the city easily and safely.

Aerobús was the best option to reach my hotel in the Eixample area of Barcelona from Terminal 1 of Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport. The FAQ section Aerobús app recommends purchasing tickets online in advance of your trip (https://www.barcelona-aerobus-tickets.com/faqs/). However that isn't necessary because there are kiosks to purchase your ticket right next to the queue for boarding the bus. The buses have Wi-Fi. Each seat has a USB power port

The tour was great! We saw a lot of different views and the commentary was great! I liked that you could select different languages, although one bus had a problem where only one of the earplugs would work but that was really the only problem I expierenced. The staff was also really nice and professional. Overal a great addition to our trip. Thank you!
