I Provide charming GUIDED TOURS in BARCELONA. Contact me: hello@lookingbarcelona.com SOME IMPORTANT tips to travel to BARCELONA What are the best Barcelona travel tips ? Barcelona is a fantastic city: with good weather, good food, full of charming places, with a beautiful beach, charming people... but if you want to visit this wonderful city and want to make the most of it, there are 7 very important tips that you should not forget. These tips are: 1. Plan what you are going to do during your stay in the city. I know that sometimes we like to improvise and feel free. Get up in the morning and decide over a cup of coffee your plan for the day. It is a romantic idea, but if you plan your trip you will take advantage of it much more: 2. Buy all the tickets for the monuments in advance. The Picasso Museum, Gaudí's houses, La Sagrada Familia... if you try to buy the tickets on the same day, they will surely be sold out or you will have to stand in long queues, which will make you lose a lot of time. Seriously... buy your tickets before... it's very easy. 3. Beware of the heat if you visit Barcelona in summer. Start your visits early in the morning, believe me. It's worth it and dedicate the afternoon to something more relaxed: enjoy the hotel pool or the beach. The months of June, July and August are very hot. If you visit Barcelona in summer: wear light colored clothes, they are cooler, a hat and a backpack with water. 4. Avoid eating on the Ramblas. Las Ramblas is a promenade where there are always hundreds of people walking and it is full of restaurants that offer paella and tapas. Tapas are small portions of food typical of Spain. Don't eat on the Ramblas. The food is of very poor quality and the price is expensive. 5. Hire a private guided tour with an official guide A guided tour will allow you to make the most of your time. You will visit the best of the monuments and you will not have to worry about anything. Just let yourself be led by the guide. Visiting a monument with an official guide is very enriching, it is as if they were telling you a story I have been organizing guided tours in Barcelona since 2009 and I love to see the expression of happiness of the participants in my guided tours when they discover surprising things. Write me and I will inform you more about my guided tours. I leave my address in the description of the episode. 6. Beware of pickpockets Barcelona has a problem with pickpockets, there are many: in the metro, on the street, in shops... It's a safe city, I mean there is no violence in the streets and you can go anywhere...but please avoid wearing jewelry, expensive watches. Do not leave your cell phone on the restaurant table and if you are carrying a backpack, carry it in front of you to avoid being opened from behind. 7. Visit original places There are neighborhoods that are not very visited by tourists but are charming: Some of my favorite neighborhoods are: The Sant Antoni Market. the metro stop is called Sant Antoni. It is a food market held in the 19th century. in 2018 it was completely renovated and today it is one of the most charming places in the city to walk. Do not miss the surroundings of the market, with its squares, its charming shops and its people. Another of my favorite neighborhoods is the neighborhood of Gracia. It is an old town that joined Barcelona at the beginning of the 20th century. Even today you can breathe the atmosphere of a town. There are about 20 small squares and there are artists' workshops, small restaurants and a certain bohemian atmosphere. Look for the Verdi cinema which is considered the center of the neighborhood and from there just discover the neighborhood. and that's it. You can write me here: hello@lookingbarcelona.com
