Barcelona Travel Forum

Hi all,

I kindly ask for help. We have just decided to take vacation starting next weekend. Plan is to go to Barca Sat - Mon, and then on to Minorca. Since we have very little time could you please advise me on the following -

where to stay ? We will be traveling with our 1 year old so it would be great if hotel/apptm/B&B would be in a walking distance to main sights.

what to see in 1,5 day / which order? We will have Sat afternoon, Sun and Mon morning.

Thank you in advace!

Cheers, Tina

I'd suggest to take the hop/off bus (bus turistico). This bus stops near the main attractions in Barcelona. Once you bought your ticket you are also given a bbok with disconts coupons you can use at various museums, at restaurants, shops and other attractions.

In Barcelona you have to see Gaudi's buildings; the Barri Gotic with the Cathedral and a maze of cobbled streets and some museums.

Thank you for great advice :) Bus will most likely be the best option!

Now I just need to find a place to stay.

...bus turistic. On my Barcelona page you 'll find the link about this touristic bus with prices, routes and some other things.

I will send you some addresses about cheap hotel in Bcn.

Ciao!

Thank you so much.

I usually do a lot of research but my little kiddo is taking 99% of my time, so I really appreciate your help!

Write to me if you need some info about Barcelona.

Ciao!

if you check my Barcelona VT page, you'll find a tip about a suggested itinerary for 1 day, another about the only accommodation place I can recommend (even I never used it, as I do live in Barcelona ;)) and another about why you shoudl better don't call this city "Barca"... among other few more tips.

I've tips about Menorca too ;)

Sorry for the shameless plug!

Moreover Isabel's Barcelona page has lots of tips about restaurants.
