Bunkers el Carmel at Sunset
Amazing spot at sunset! Pack a picnic with friends and just enjoy!
Camp Nou/Barca Game
DEF Go and if you can, “tailgate” before. Games usually start at 9pm so get to the stadium by 8:15-30. The metro station is COLLBLANC (L5 dark blue line). DON'T TAXI there bc SO EXPENSIVE. You can also do a stadium/museum tour if there is no game when you're visiting.
Casa Milà Night Tour
So fun and such a cool way to see this important part of Barcelona's history and architecture! Plus you get a free drink included with your ticket!
Cocktail Making Class
Learn to make the best drinks ever! So fun.
Corgi Cafe
Not your typical "activity" but so fun nonetheless! Great for someone who is missing cuddles from their own pets back at home. You can have lunch here too!
Food Tours!
There is so much more to Barcelona than just Paella. We love exploring while tasting tapas, wine and so much more!
La Boqueria Market
MUST GO. Located on Las Ramblas, this is a huge food market with every kind of food imaginable. The fruit, Asian food (back right side) and patatas are all so good. Lots of candy too if you’re into that.
Mediterranean Catamaran Cruise
So fun! Just $50 for 4 drinks and a fun party boat experience. Cruise from 3-5pm. So worth it!
Paella Making Class
So fun and interactive. You aren't just making paella but doing a market visit, making tapas and drinking sangria! What could be better!
Palo Marketfest
Palo Alto is a new and sophisticated street market for Barcelona, based on the concept of a popular street market, but developed in a format tailored to this city, which has stood out all over the world for its creativity. It happens about once a month. Click link for calendar. Super fun!
Passeig de Gracia
Main shopping street with lots of stores and restaurants. Think ZARA, H&M, and tons of designer shops like Gucci, YSL, etc.
Port Vell
The port with tons of beautiful boats, located in Barceloneta (the beach district of the city).
Sagrada Familia Tour
There is so much to learn at this iconic sight so we HIGHLY recommend joining a tour to truly understand what you are visiting and why! There is also a great skip-the-line option!
Sidecar Tour
Although a little more expensive we love this unique way to see the city! Can go during the day, at night, or even do it combined with a food tour!
Sunset Cruise
Great way to enjoy beautiful Barcelona. You get a captain and can do water sports, eat, drink and enjoy a gorgeous sunset!
Food & Wine Tour with Local Sommelier
So yummy and such a great way to get to know the flavors of the city!
Tapas Tour with Flamenco
Combine two of Barcelona's best offerings in this evening tour. A great way to get a feel for the city at night.
Water & Boat Tours
Nothing better than spending a couple hours on a boat in this beautiful city. Choose from lots of great, GTG approved options!
Sights

Just walk by to see and take a pic
Barcelona Cathedral
In Gothic Quarter - a famous cathedral that you’ll pass a lot walking around the Gothic Quarter, very central. Can pay to go in.
Casa Batlló
Eixample neighborhood. cool to see, but expensive to buy tickets. You'll prob walk by it while shopping on Passeig de Gracia and can view from outside

Also in Eixample. Another Gaudi house that is also called La Pedrera (“the stone quarry”) based on its appearance.
Cathedral Santa Maria del Mar
Cool, old cathedral located in the Gothic Quarter. You can pay a small amount and climb its narrow stairs to the top where you get a cool view of the city. Or for free you can just go inside

The unfinished church. Pretty unreal - book tickets in advance bc it sells out everyday. You can get audio guide,
Moco Museum
Another museum also in Gothic Quarter right near Picasso Museum - really cool, super modern, and a quick walk through
Montjuïc Castle
A castle in the city of Barcelona on Montjuïc hill – can get in for free on the first Sunday of the month. Once you get to the hill by metro, you take a cable car with an amazing view of the entire city. Once you are at the castle, you also have great views of Barcelona.

Plaza Catalunya
Near Gothic Quarter, has everything you can think of including an Urban Outfitters - and the flagship Zara

Terrace of Sercotel Rosellón
Rooftop with great views of Sagrada Familia. Everyone goes here at least once if you are living in Barcelona.
Bar Sauvage
More dance vibe, really fun bar
Crepes Al Born
Cocktails and crepes! What could be bad?? Rated one of the best bars in the world.
Dow Jones
Totally made for Americans but gotta go at least once, stock market themed. Every time a drink is bought the price goes up or down depending on the stock. On the hour, the market crashes and everything’s cheap. Super fun.
Dr. Stravinsky
Pretty famous, a little overrated, but really good drinks. May have to wait to get in
Espit Chupitos
Go once, definitely made for Americans. TONS of different kinds of shots. Buy your friend the Monica Lewinsky shot and see for yourself lol
Fizz Bar
A bar with live music and popcorn. Super cute, super local. Club vibes but not a club. Good for a pregame
George Payne’s
If you’re looking for somewhere to watch an American sports game, it will often be on at this bar. Super fun atmosphere. Good to pregame. Get the blackout tray (big tray of assorted drinks) for €20.
Hemingway
Fun bar that serves drinks in cool things like an espresso martini in a pipe.
Ice Barcelona
It’s a bar that is made of ice. You pay around 17 euros to wear the winter jacket, gloves, get a free drink and they play music. Freezing so you won’t stay for that long, so decide if it’s worth it
Las Cuevas de Los Rajas
"Please go here. I beg of you, it is my favorite bar in the whole wide world. In the gothic quarter, we call it "skull bar." They sell drinks made for four people in the skulls and we each pair off and do skull races where we race to the bottom. Handon is the bartender and he lets us go behind the bar and pour our own shots and drinks for free on less busy nights! Also they block off the basement for free for us when we have big groups.
Mamaine Mojitos
Cutest mojito bar in Born. Fun for drinks after class and people watching.
Ovella Negra
A beer hall atmosphere, fun place to go before going to the clubs – it’s also walking distance to Razzmatazz so go to pregame here. Drinks are free with a promoter and they have €2 tequila shots!
Paradiso
Super, super cool bar. It's not the hypest, but if you're just going with friends for drinks, it's really really cool. The drinks come in the craziest cups. You should get in line at 3:30pm to guarantee you get in. Get the tornado!
Clubs
Razzmatazz
This place is literally insane. A million rooms with some really giant ones. It's crazy but so fun. def buy tickets in advance. It’s cheaper to buy earlier in week and gets more expensive as week goes on, especially day of. Wednesdays or Fridays best nights. Be careful and stay with your friends. Don't leave anyone alone ever!
