It seems that three days it’s not enough time to enjoy all that Barcelona offers, although, three days in Barcelona give for much. We recommend you just to make a list of the most important places that you want to visit, plan the time that you would like to spend in every route and just enjoy with calm your stay in the catalan capital.

Tips to exploit your 3 days in Barcelona

— Use public transport. Barcelona has an extensive public transport network that, quite functional: is composed of several metro lines, buses, trams and trains, and you have the possibility to make connections and transfers between each of these, and just with a single ticket transport. There is a ticket that allows you to use unlimited travel throughout the public transport network of Barcelona for 3 days, this is certainly something that will help you to move faster through the city.

Metro

— Enjoy the mornings. Most of establishments, museums and places of tourist interest in Barcelona open their doors to the public from 09:00 hr. We recommend you to arrive there before the opening to easy get inside and get less agglomeration of people. You will enjoy more your experience.

— Advance ticket sales are your best ally. Especially for the most demanded monuments, such as Casa Milà, Casa Batlló and of course La Sagrada Familia. These places are usually quite busy, then if you take advantage of the advance tickets sale on internet you will avoid the long lines and agglomeration in rush hour.

— Respect your meal times. Try to don’t forget to take your time for your meals; If you establish a range of time to eat you can take advantage of that and rest at the same time. In this moment you can also check the route of the day. Planning your actions like this, you might avoid the confusion and all the waste of time looking for a place to eat quickly because you do not have much time.

— Choose centric accommodation. Is very important to choose good accommodation, preferably centric and easy to arrive there with public transport. We can recommend a luxury hotel in Barcelona that meets all these requirements, as it is also very central and has magnificent facilities for rest, also it has a terrace with panoramic views of the city and its own restaurant with a Michelin star.

This is the Hotel Omm in Paseo de Gracia, always an excellent choice of accommodation, you will not regret it.

We hope that these tips help you to know the most essential tips to travel in Barcelona for three days, and hope that you can enjoy so much this beautiful city.
