As a Spaniard born in Barcelona let me share some tips with you: -1. Don't eat nor drink anything at the RAMBLAS or near SAGRADA FAMILIA. We citizens know that quality-prices in these areas can be almost considered a scam. Avoid that zones if you really want to taste local food. -2. We spanish don't drink as much "sangria" as you think. Try "tinto de verano" instead which is closer to our habits. -3. Please, please, please, keep your belongins safe. No need to get obsessed with it but always be cautious. -4. For whatever visit to city landmarks you should previously check official websites.

Good video and tips. We visited in August 2002 and stayed in the Hotel Continental on Ramblas, booked 7 nights. Around the corner from the metro at Placa Catalunya. The hotel was B&B and they also had a tea/coffee area with biscuits all day long. The room had a small balcony with table and 2 chairs. Across ramblas from the hotel was a Supermecado where we sourced most of our evening meals. We planned the trip using a Spain Travel book. Listed everything we wanted to see, marked on maps. We walked, and walked and walked. And ticked off the list. The only time we used public transport was the bus to Gaudi Park and the train to Montserrat. Walking ensured that we saw far more interesting buildings and churches and some dicey areas. Eating out whether a meal or just tapas get away from the tourist areas and look where the locals eat and drink. Beware of the paella 'specials', not worth the money. I kept a book where I recorded what we saw each day and the other side of the book what we spent each day. Back home recorded it all in an Excel. August is summer, holiday season in Europe, daily temps were 35c starting at 29c. Drink lots of fluids.

I wanted to know if Barcelona Sants train station ( or anywhere in Barcelona central actually) had luggage storage and the cost. We are a family of 5 and don't want to arrive early in the day but not have our bags with us until we can access our accomodation. Our other option is to try to change our accomodation days and arrive early in Madrid via train so the same question for Atocha station. Also do you have anymore Menu Del Dia recommendations as one of the restaurants in your video has now closed and it looked really good. Thank you M.

@@danpastor7116 thanks for your words, Dan, we know Reus quite well, in fact, we have quite a few texts on the city on another project of ours (a website on Barcelona in Portuguese). Casa Navas is one of the most beautiful modernist houses we've ever visited. The Gaudi Centre is quite interesting too, never mind the magnificent Institut Pere Mata. And then it is the vermut! Too good to be true. But, from experience, very few people venture to Reus, which is a pity while at the same time understandable, given that there is so much to see in Barcelona.

Hello, we have a video on Girona for you to have an idea of what to expect: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dYdhrJqsaLHTn7g.html If you go to Begur, you will need a car to move around. Another sea town we recommend is Tossa de Mar.

I'll be there next week 😍 my first time to Europe. Unfortunately one of the first places the guide takes us to is Las Ramblas so any recommendations on decent food there?

could you please make a video about how to use and buy the T mobilitat transport card, i watched your Barcelona transport ticket video but it wasn't there, Thanks!

The T-mobilitat is being gradually implemented. Right now, most of the tickets tourists can use are not available in the platform. Once T-mobilitat is fully up and running we will definitely record that video.

I’m planning on going to Spain later in the year. I had in mind to go to Madrid, Seville and Barcelona. It would only be for 10 days. Was looking at 3 days each in Madrid and Seville and then 4 days in Barcelona. What are you thoughts? Should I do 3 places or should I do 2 and spend more time in Barcelona? Thanks in advance! And thanks for the tips!

We intend to create a consultancy service to help with queries like yours, but so far it is at a planning stage. Having said that, split your days between Madrid and Barcelona and leave Seville for a future trip to Andalusia.

Hi Kresna, there is a locker service right in the centre of Barcelona here: bcnshop.barcelonaturisme.com/shopv3/en/product/20736/locker-barcelona.html?o=h&w=3845-1444

For those costs you have to spend, like train tickets.Choosing the right ticketing app and finding discount is a useful method.I remember there is an app that is discounting all train tickets in the UK and Europe.It's very economical and I've spent 35%less each time!

There is no such thing as street food in Spain - with a few exceptions. We don't have a video on the topic of your question yet so our advice is to seek help from your hotel wherever you are staying. They should be able to point you to the right places.
