If you’re planning on spending 2 days in Barcelona, perhaps over a weekend, then we’ve put together this itinerary to help you plan your perfect visit.

Barcelona is a city that Jess and I have visited many times. There is so much to see and do, certainly more than would fit into two days. However, with careful planning, you can definitely see a lot of the city and many of the highlights in a couple of days.

As well as the itinerary, we’re going to tell you everything you need to know to plan your time in Barcelona. From where to stay, to how to get around, to how to save money on attractions, this guide has you covered. Let’s start with the itinerary itself.

Hop on Hop off Bus

Today, I’m going to recommend you get around using the Hop on Hop off bus. A few of today’s attractions are spaced a little apart, and Barcelona’s Hop on Hop off bus is an easy way to get between them. It’s also a great way to learn about the city as you go, thanks to the included audioguide.

Of course, you could get between today’s sights by public transport or other forms of transport, as covered in the section on getting around Barcelona. But as many of the city passes for Barcelona include at least a day of hop on hop off bus travel, it is worth taking advantage…
