Barcelona hop-on-off bus
Has anyone taken the hop-on-hop off bus in Barcelona. I will be there for 3 days and wanted to know if a one day or a two day pass would be better. I plan on seeing the Picasso museum and the Familia church.

We did the two day pass last November and it really worked great for us. A lot of the sites are so spread out that it helped get us around the city and then we could take our time doing whatever at each point. I thought it was a great value since we used it fully both days!

The problem with the Hop on/off bus in Barcelona is that they make a very big loop which takes a long time. So, actually getting from place to place can be endless. We bought tickets for 2 days and used it once. It is not at all efficient. In what area are you staying? In any event, I would only buy a one day pass.

Dear bc:
I think it just depends on how much time you have, what you want to see and how the weather is.
The bus has 3 loops. We did the red & most of the blue on one day. We only stopped at the things we REALLY wanted to see. But we were worn out and it was a little warm and muggy. Some friends were there about the same time for a week, so they took one loop one day and another the next.
I think you should not stress now about it and decide once you get there.
Good luck on your trip & have fun,
MY

The bus is a very practical way of getting around to some highlghts. Be warned, though, that for the Parc Guell (Gaudi)stop..it's a long steep (very steep) walk to the park. The roze is well worth it, though.
