Our tips

Start your open-air bus tour early in the morning, sitting at the top of the bus so you can take photos without a window in front of you. Start at the Plaça Catalunya stop on the Blue Line. Stop whenever you want to visit a monument or simply take the time to see it from the outside.

> Change from the Blue line to the Red line at the Francesc Macià - Diagonal stop to finish your journey with all the wonders of the Red line. This itinerary is perfectly feasible in a day, if you take the time to really visit 2 or 3 places.
