Useful Tips

If you have more time, try visiting the famous Camp Nou stadium, located in the west of the city. It's a great experience even if you're not a diehard football fan. For those interested in Catalan history, we recommend adding the National Art Museum of Catalonia (MNAC) in your itinerary. Finally, if your stay is shorter, we suggest removing a day from your stay in Barcelona and saving it for another city.
