Welcome to our guide to selecting the right tourist card or city pass for your Barcelona city break! We look atthe top 4 cards, which include entry to La Sagrada Familia, and which offer the best deals and value for money in general.
The original idea of tourist cards, here in Barcelona and other popular travel destinations around the world, was to give their users one handy entry card they can use at all the major attractions around town, saving them a lot of time, money and hassle. Often with free public transport thrown into the bargain.
While the idea is simple, the execution is not always so easy. For example many museums and sights in Barcelona are privately owned (including several of Gaudi’s greatest hits!), and a couple of mega-attractions like Sagrada Familia require pre-booking. Meanwhile the attractions that are publicly owned (most of the museums) have to abide by certain rules and regulations.
The result is that there is not one “catch all” solution to entering all of Barcelona’s attractions for free, but rather several different options that will suit the needs of different travellers to different degrees.
We compare the different tourist cards and city passes on offer… so you can make an informed decision about which option works best for you.
In this article, we compare the different tourist cards and city passes on offer, along with a transparent look at who runs them (as well as the official tourist board, several large travel giants offer their own products!) and how much value you get from each, so you can make an informed decision about which option works best for you.
The official Barcelona Card is available for 3, 4, or 5 days

1. Barcelona Card
Barcelona Card:What’s Included?|Prices|Is It Worth It?|Online Reservations
The city’s official pass, run by the tourist board, the Barcelona Card offers free entry – with skip the line privileges – to many of the best museums in the Catalan capital, most notablythe superb Picasso Museum, but also the MNAC (National Museum of Catalan Art),MACBA,Joan Miro Foundationand most branches of the Barcelona History Museum.
There’s also free entry to many of the city’s less visited, but worthwhile treasures, such as the Frederic Mares Museum,Caixa Forum, CosmoCaixa (good for kids!), Design Museum, Egyptian Museum and the sereneBotanical Gardens.
The card doubles as a free travel card around the city, which is handy and saves you faffing around at ticket machines for the duration of your stay.
After purchase, you will need to collect the card from the airport or one of the tourist offices / collection points in the centre. Usually it’s better to collect it at the airport, so you can take advantage of the metro transport direct from arrival. However the card is valid from the moment you first use it, so if you’re not planning to visit any museums on your first day you might want to wait to activate it later.
Sadly the Barcelona Card doesn’t include tickets to La Sagrada Familia nor Park Guell, nor any ofGaudi’s other UNESCO-listed works. Although it does at least provide you with discounts for Casa Mila, Casa Batllo, Casa Vicens and Palau Guell, and many many more attractions, shops and entertainment venues.
Overall this is the best choice for museum lovers who plan on using the excellent public metro system during their stay.
Top Tip:If you want museumsplusGaudi you could combine this with theBarcelona PassorGo City Explorer Pass.
Free Major Attractions
- Picasso Museum.Skip the line entry to this Barcelona highlight (worth €12).
- MNAC. The excellent National Museum of Catalan Art (worth €12).

Barcelona Card Pricing
The official Barcelona Card starts at €53 for a 72 hour pass. Full pricing for adults and kids below.| ADULTS | PRICE | CHILD (4-12 yrs) | PRICE |
|---|---|---|---|
| 72 hours | €53 | 72 hours | €30 |
| 96 hours | €63 | 96 hours | €40 |
| 120 hours | €75 | 120 hours | €45 |
Is It Worth It?
Is it worth buying the Barcelona Card? The conclusion is yes, provided you plan on visiting at least one museum a day. If you do so, you’d be saving the 7-12 euros museum entry fee, plus travelling for free around the city using the excellent metro system, which will also now take you all the way to the airport. You’d have to buy yourPark GuellandSagrada Familia ticketsseparately, however, which is why for first-time visitors to the city I’d recommend checking the Barcelona Pass or the Go City All-Inclusive or Explorer pass, before making your decision. You may even be able to combine two passes to get everything you want.
2. Barcelona Pass
Barcelona Pass:What’s Included?|Prices|Is It Worth It?|Online Reservations

A fantastic bonus are the free apps that come with the pass, meaning you have the benefits of a tour guide in your pocket at all times, wherever you are in the city.
Finally, the pass includes a 10% off discount code that you can redeem for virtually every major attraction and activity in the city, from the Camp Nou Museum and the Aquarium, to other Gaudi greats, such as Casa Mila and Casa Batllo.
All the tickets are electronic, so need to collect them, or even print them, you can use them on your mobile. The discount code you can use to book more activitiesvia their website.

Barcelona Pass Pricing

| 2 days hop on/off bus | €95.50 | 2 days hop on/off bus | €20 | 1 day hop on/off bus | €32.50 |
Is It Worth It?
Is the Barcelona Pass worth the money? Economically speaking, you don’t save a tonne of money here, as the value of the included products comes to more or less the price of the pass itself. Therefore, to start making savings, you need to use your 10% discount code to buy at least one more product. With the likes of Camp Nou Stadium, Casa Mila, Casa Batllo, The Aquarium, a flamenco show or a wine tour to tempt you, this should be very easy indeed, and the more you do, the better value the pass becomes. On the other hand, it’s hard to beat the Barcelona Pass for sheer convenience as it covers everything many tourists wish to do with a single ticket, enabling you to plan your visit with just a few clicks of the mouse.
3. Go City All-Inclusive Pass
ByGo City
Go City All-Inclusive:What’s Included?|Prices|Is It Worth It?|5% Discount Code!
A new brand in town, the Go City All-Inclusive pass is rather impressive! You simply choose the number of days you will need the pass for (the more days, the higher the cost), and then you can visit as many sights and museums as you like for FREE within that timeframe.
Amazingly, Go City seemed to have struck a deal with virtually every major tourist attraction in town, and in fact they’ve actually gone one better for some of the top attractions, as you actually get a guided tour of La Sagrada Familia, Park Guell and Picasso Museum included in the price (which starts at €119 for a 2-day pass, and perhaps hits a sweet spot at €149 for a 3-day pass).
So far, go great… but is there a snag? Yes, a little one. Some of the best sights (starting with La Sagrada Familia) require booking in advance and are limited by availability, so you need tocheck that on their website之前你去买。一般来说,provided you buying your All-Inclusive pass a week ahead of time you should be ok.
Overall there’s a stunning amount of high-end, expensive attractions included in the cost of the pass, and it should be really easy to get value for money – you might even save a small fortune! (UPDATE:We’ve negotiated a 5% discount on the pass for Barcelona Life readers… keep reading to save even more!).
Free Major Attractions
- Sagrada Familia Guided Tour. See Gaudi’s masterpiece with a local guide (worth €49).
- Park Guell Guided Tour. Wander through these landscaped gardens with a licensed guide (worth €26)
- Picasso Museum Guided Tour. Discover the legacy of Picasso in Barcelona and his early works (worth €33)
- Camp Nou Museum & Tour. Visit the stadium and museum of the legendary Barça FC (worth €28).
- Casa Batllo. A truly magical house with a fairytale façade (worth €35).
- Casa Mila. Gaudi’s most famous mansion, aka La Pedrera (worth €25).

Other Freebies
In addition to entrance tickets to almost all the top attractions, the Go City All-Inclusive pass also includes a tonne of tour options, such as a free walking tour with tapas tasting (worth €25), a free bike tour (€30), a segway tour (€29) or even a ticket to anescape room(worth €25).
Free Transport
The Go City All-Inclusive pass includes free use of the Hop On / Hop Off Barcelona Tourist Bus for the duration of the card, plus Montjuic Cable Car tickets.
Go City All-Inclusive Pass Pricing
Two days of accessing pretty much all that Barcelona has to offer is great value at just €119 per person, and gets better the longer pass you buy. Discounts for children of 12 and under.| ADULT PASS | PRICE | CHILD (4-12) | PRICE |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 days | €119 | 2 days | €84 |
| 3 days | €149 | 3 days | €99 |
| 4 days | €169 | 4 days | €114 |
| 5 days | €189 | 5 days | €124 |
Is It Worth It?
Is the Go City All-Inclusive pass worth it? The short answer isYES. It’s incredible value. The 2-day pass only comes in at less than €60 a day… take the Sagrada Familia guided tour (€49) and you’ve nearly made that back… especially if you arrived by the Tourist Bus (€30). Take the Park Guell tour in the afternoon (€33) and you’ve completed €112 worth of activities for almost half price. Then on your second day you just need to visit any two other premium attractions to be saving, and there’s time to do three or four if you plan well.
这张照片看起来更好在为期3天的传递,which comes in at less than €50 a day. You could do La Sagrada Familia, Park Guell and Gaudi Experience (next to Park Guell) via the Tourist Bus on Day 1; then pop by Casa Mila and Casa Batllo (next to each other), followed by Picasso Museum on Day 2; and then on Day 3 take your pick betweenMonsterrat, Camp Nou Experience, the Aquarium and many more.

4. Go City Explorer Pass
ByGo City
Go City Explorer:What’s Included?|Prices|Is It Worth It?|5% Discount Code!
The Go City Explorer Pass works completely differently to every other tourist card on this list. Instead of being valid for a number of days, the pass grants you entry to a set number of attractions (between 2 and 7, depending which option you select), and you can handpick these attractions from Go City’s list of partners.
The list includes virtually every major attraction in town, and overall the Explorer Pass is the most flexible option for travellers.
Free Major Attractions
- Sagrada Familia Guided Tour. See Gaudi’s masterpiece with a local guide (worth €49).
- Park Guell Guided Tour. Wander through these landscaped gardens with a licensed guide (worth €26)
- Picasso Museum Guided Tour. Discover the legacy of Picasso in Barcelona and his early works (worth €33)
- Camp Nou Museum & Tour. Visit the stadium and museum of the legendary Barça FC (worth €28).
- Casa Batllo. A truly magical house with a fairytale façade (worth €35).
- Casa Mila. Gaudi’s most famous mansion, aka La Pedrera (worth €25).
- Poble Espanyol. Visit the whole of Spain, in one village (worth €14).
- The Aquarium. Admire 450 aquatic animals including bull sharks (worth €24).
- Barcelona Zoo. See lions, tigers, hippos, giraffes and gorillas (worth €21.40).
- Segway Tour. Take a spin through Parc de la Ciutadella (worth €29).
- Tapas Tour. A walking tour of the Gothic Quarter with snacks (worth €22).
You can check the full list of the 40+ free attractions and experienceson Go City’s website, where you can also buy the pass.
Free Transport
The Go City Explorer pass doesn’t include any free transport, but you can use one of your attraction slots to select the Hop On / Hop Off Barcelona Tourist Bus. (You can also select the Montjuic Cable Car, but that would only make financial sense if you opting for the 6 or 7 attraction pass option).
Go City Explorer Pass Prices
Choose between 2 to 7 attractions and pay accordingly. This pass makes sense if you plan on visiting a small amount of expensive attractions.| ADULT PASS | PRICE | CHILD (4-12) | PRICE |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 choice pass | €62 | 2 choice pass | €42 |
| 3 choice pass | €84 | 3 choice pass | €64 |
| 4 choice pass | €104 | 4 choice pass | €74 |
| 5 choice pass | €119 | 5 choice pass | €84 |
| 6 choice pass | €134 | 6 choice pass | €94 |
| 7 choice pass | €144 | 7 choice pass | €104 |
Is It Worth It?
The great thing about the Go City Explorer Pass is you really can’t lose. You simply add up the prices of the attractions you want to visit and then check if the pass works out cheaper!
Generally speaking, if you want to visit a lot of premium attractions (by which I mean those that cost €20 or over) then the Explorer Pass is going to save you a significant amount of money. For example selecting the Sagrada Familia guided tour (€49), the Park Guell guided tour (€26), Casa Batllo (€35), Camp Nou (€28), the Tourist Bus (€30) and the Picasso Museum guided tour (€33) has a total value of €201, while the 6 choice pass only costs €134. That’s a pretty massive saving!

Hi Duncan,
Wonderful info, lots to digest, I am visiting with my daughter in May who uses a wheelchair, are the hop on and hop off buses accessible? Wondering which pass would work best for us, we are staying for six nights, don’t know where yet perhaps you can suggest an area that would be fun and accessible. I appreciate your advice.
Duncan
Hi Klara
So I checked for you and the official tourist bus websitesays:
“All Barcelona Bus Turístic buses are equipped with an access ramp and wheelchair space inside the vehicle.”
I would perhaps suggest staying somewhere in, or near, El Borne. It’s a nice district, centrally located and a good vibe. However you can’t go too far wrong, every central district is pretty nice IMHO and there’s a good metro services (with lifts and ramps) if you need to swap districts. Being close to the yellow line is useful for getting to and from the city beaches. Speaking of which Poblenou is a very chilled district with little traffic and close to the beaches.
I would recommend checking out this post my an accessibility expert for more tips:

Have fun, and let us know how you got on!

Hi Duncan,
My husband and I are visiting Barcelona in 2 weeks, where our daughter is studying abroad. Looking at all of the passes it seems the City Explorer Pass may be best for us (and then purchasing the T-Casual transportation passes). My question is for the Sagrada Familia tickets, can we get tickets with a Tower Tour? It seems that some of the passes don’t offer the Tower tour and I’m not sure if the Explorer Package does.
Also, we want to book a tour to Montserrat. Is there one you would recommend over another? There seem to be so many options. We like to be active so one with a hike or wine tasting sound good. Thanks for any help you can give!
Duncan
Hi Shelby
Tower access is not part of the Sagrada Familia tour available with the Explorer Pass, although it’s possible you could later upgrade with the company who provides the Sagrada tour (Amigo Tours). The picture is not clear I’m afraid (I asked Go City, but they were not even sure).
If you want to be 100% sure, I’d maybe get separate tickets and use the Explorer Pass for other attractions. Given you’re here for 2 weeks you can take your time and the Explorer Pass makes most sense. Just use it for the most expensive attractions!
Regarding Montserrat, I put what I think are the best tours here:

Hope that helps…

Michelle
Hi Duncan,
We will be traveling with our 4 year old in April. Wondering what would be the best option for us if we want to visit Parc Güell, La Sagrada Familia, el Tibidabo funicular (amusement Park not necessary), Montjuïc, Casa Milá or Batlló, a boat ride and possibly Montserrat. We don’t want guided tours, just entrance. We arrive on a Saturday late afternoon and leav e either Tuesday or Wednesday (if we include Montserrat). We would probably do our own thing around the Gothic quarter on Sunday and maybe a boat tour to allow for jet lag recovery. Would possibly fit in El Tibidabo or Montjuïc Sunday as well if we are up for it. Then sagrada familia, Parc Güell and Casa Batllo on Monday. Leaving Tuesday afternoon or tagging on Montserrat on Tuesday and leaving Wednesday morning. I was thinking the GoCity 3 day all inclusive pass would be worth it but not seems like most of what they offer are guided tours, which would be a challenge with a jet lagged 4 year old (and limited time). What pass would you recommend for our time there? I don’t know if it makes sense to start our pass on sunday (when jet lagged) or Monday. I liked the idea of the hop on hop off for transportation ease to the main attractions but maybe it’s not too hard to navigate public transport. Thank you!
Duncan
Hi Michelle, while possible I think this might all be a bit ambitious for only two full days (Sunday and Monday).
If you’re keen to avoid being on a tour, perhaps the Barcelona Pass makes more sense. You can do Sagrada Familia and Park Guell on the same day, and use the rest of the day to ride the Tourist Bus over Montjuic (you don’t need advance tickets for Montjuic attractions like Joan Miro Foundation or MNAC so you can play Montjuic by ear). I’d just advise leaving plenty of time to get from Sagrada to Park Guell by Tourist Bus as I’ve heard the buses can get busy these days so you might have to queue a little to get on one. (Public transport def. possible, but a bit more hassle / walking).
Once you have the Barcelona Pass you can get 10% off Casa Batllo and a number of Montserrat and boat tours via Tiqets.
Hope that helps!
Natka
Hi Duncan, cool article! What do you think about the Hola Barcelona pass? Is it worth buying to save on public transport? We want to do the standard, I guess: Montserrat, Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, Montjuic, Picasso Museum, maybe Poble Espanyol, or Aquarium. 5 days, Mon to Fri.
Thanks in advance!
Duncan
Czesc Natka
The Hola Barcelona Pass is pretty decent, as I believe you get the special airport metro fare included. You will probably save money vs. buying single tickets everywhere you go.
HOWEVER, I think 8/10 times you are going to save more money buying a T-Casual, which gives you 10 journeys on public transport for €11:35, with no time limit (or a time limit of several months).
https://www.tmb.cat/en/barcelona-fares-metro-bus/single-and-integrated/t-casual
You don’t get airport metro ticket included though (although personally I prefer to take the Aerobus anyhow, as I find it fast, convenient and still reasonably priced).
Nath
Hi Duncan
Very good article I have a question we are a couple traveling to Barcelona on march interested in seeing sagarada familia, park guell,football stadium and the hop off and on bus. We don’t want like a schedule to do things just to enjoy and walk around wich card do you recommend. Thank You
Duncan
Hi Nath
Thanks for the feedback. Regarding your question, unfortunately these days tickets to popular attractions come with a specified time slot, meaning it’s no longer really viable to do the major sights in an ad hoc fashion. You have to plan a bit in advance. That’s true no matter which pass you buy, or which portal you get the tickets from, including the official websites, so there’s no way around it I’m afraid.
For your needs, I’d personally probably go for the Barcelona Pass and use the tourist bus to round up all those attractions in one day. Sagrada Familia maybe 10am, Park Guell at noon, lunch, then Camp Nou at 3pm, and then ride the bus over Montjuic in the late afternoon, as it’s very nice up there and some good views (//www.jbmobil.com/barcelona/montjuic). After you buy the Barcelona Pass, you should be able to buy the Camp Nou tickets with 10% discount via Tiqets.com.
That way you’ve done your sightseeing on Day 1 and can spend the rest of your trip walking around some cool districts like the Gothic Quarter, Born, Gracia or just go shopping, bar hopping or to the beach!
More inspiration here:
//www.jbmobil.com/barcelona/things-to-do
//www.jbmobil.com/things-to-do-at-night-in-barcelona
Note: the Go City Passes do cover your needs too, but with Go City you book a guided tour to the Sagrada Familia and Park Guell (not just entry tickets), meaning less flexibility about what times you can choose from. But maybe check them out in case the times work for you.
Merlin
Hello,
we want to visit Sagrada Famiglia, Casa Milo, Batllo, Park Guell and Picasso
Can u suggest a city pass for all of this atractions and can i use them twice for the same places?
Duncan
Hi Merlin, yes either of the Go City Passes will get you entry to those five attractions. However, you can only visit each attraction once, as far as I know.
Iva
Thank you for this great article! I’ve managed to use your discount on the Go City card
Duncan
Well done Iva! Have fun in Barcelona
Dinyar Sidhva
Duncan, Thanks for your prompt response. Most useful.
Have a nice day.
Warm Regards

Amanda
on the go explorer pass are there skip the line tours
Duncan
Yes, you can select Sagrada Familia or Park Guell skip-the-line tours with the Go Explorer Pass, and you will enter the attraction at the allotted time without queuing more than a few minutes… you do have to be on time though!
In general every advance ticket is a ‘skip the line’ ticket (the phrase ‘skip-the-line’ comes from the times when most tourists would simply turn up at the gates and form a line, but most people now plan in advance, esp. for the big attractions).
Dinyar Sidhva
Hi Duncan,
Intend visiting Barcelona in May this year and based on your recommendations am planning to buy the 4-choice Explorer Pass to cover Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, Casa Batlo & Cable Car to Montjuic. Q.1 How do I get to use the guide for the first 2 attractions with this pass? Do I get him/her on site? Q.2 When visiting Casa Batlo is some audio facility available? Q.3 Is cable car experience to Montjuic worthwhile or do you recommend another attraction. Q.4 When booking do I have to specify which 4 attractions I will be availing.
Look forward to receiving your response. Thanks. Dinyar
Duncan
Hi Dinyar
With Sagrada Familia, after buying the pass, you will have to reserve a slot for La Sagrada Familia (I believe GoCity will send you a link to a booking calendar, or a calendar will pop up from their page) either on a morning tour (Monday to Saturday at 09:30) or an afternoon tour (15:30).
timet公园平息我的处境相同,但不同ables. In May, looks like you can choose from 12:15, 15:45 or 18:15 each day.
For Casa Batllo you’re essentially getting their standard ‘Blue ticket’, which includes Audio Guide and Gaudi Cube (360 degrees media exhibit).
Montjuic is really cool place to visit, with loads of attractions. You can read more here:
//www.jbmobil.com/barcelona/montjuic
The cable car is fun, with great views from the sky, and helpful if you want to get to the very top of the hill (which is a steep walk). However it’s only a few minutes ride, so it’s only a short trip. At the top of the hill isMontjuic Castle(it’s a fortress not a castle though), and great views over the commercial port.
If you wanted to get more value from your pass, you could use your fourth attraction slot to get into one of the more expensive attractions, like La Pedrera (aka Casa Mila), and just buy the cable car ticket.
Have fun!
Kevin M. Wong
Duncan, I just read your article and went to the link for the GO Pass, All Inclusive pass. We are going to Barcelona in late November for one week. We ended up getting the 5-day pass and it looks like we can see a lot while riding the double-decker buses to get to the attractions. I wanted to say thank you for your wonderful article that explained all of the pass options. I honestly think the one we got is the best value for your money, but if someone is only going for a day or two, I can see how one of the others might work better.

Hi Lone
Yes, this article is going to need a quite intensive update following the pandemic. Things are still in flux a bit. One card that has reestablished itself isthe Barcelona Pass, available now on Tiqets, and it has EXACTLY what you’re looking for (except the metro… but you can buy a T-Casual card for just 10 or 11 euros and use that to get around)! Here’s the link:

Hi Duncan
Please can you help !
There are 14 of us traveling to Barcelona on the 2nd jan returning on the 5th jan .
We have 6 teenagers
4 kids
4 adults
We basically Need a card for 4 days which gives us access to :
Airport transfers ( using the metro) to noval hotel and back
Metro use whilst out there and hop and on bus to get around
We want to see the
La Sagrada
Park Guell
Picasso museum
Football stadium if free ( not a must)
Boat trip would be amazing
Zoo ( possibly )
Any late night showes ( not essential but fun)
Aquarium (if possible )
As we will all spilt but need access to public transport the whole time out there. Our hotel is noval Barcelona metro is across the rd
Am confused to if we get the Barcelona combo which seems like the best option is that per person and how many days ? Do
You offer a family card which is cheaper and I have also looked at the I venture card that gives y out access for 7 days .
We need a card from 2nd jan until 5th jan your help will be much appreciated.
I hope to hear from
You very soon as I need to book these cards and the best option plz
Duncan
嗨,指甲花,是的它看起来像巴塞罗那组合是喜神贝斯t option for you. The Combo is actually the official Barcelona Tourist Card, plus a package of Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, Flamenco Show and Boat Trip added on top, at a discount price.
So you essentially are buying the Barcelona Card (you choose the duration, 3, 4 or 5 days), and that gives you free public transport, including metro to and from airport, and free Picasso Museum (plus many other museums). And then, in addition to the Card benefits, you also get the Combo bonuses as well (Sagrada Familia etc!), and you can choose the timing of those.
The Card would give you a discount on the Zoo and Aquarium (but not Camp Nou) if you did decide you wanted to visit any of those!
Hope that helps clarify things for you!
Have fun
Duncan
Ps. I don’t know of any family cards, but the Combo package is cheaper for those under 12 years old.

Hi
Do you know if the night tour of La Pedrera is included in any of these tickets, please?
Many thanks
Duncan
Hi Alayne.
Yes, La Pedrera’s real name is Casa Mila.
You can see on the table that it is free with the Barcelona Pass.
Enjoy your travels!
Duncan

Sorry, just realised you specified the night tour. Nope, that’s not included in any package. But you can purchasevia Get Your Guide.
