Great combo! Really liked both places. And we booked them for different days, to have enough time to enjoy each one. The aquarium was a bit less than what I expected, but did have lots to see. With the cable car we almost lost our ride back down, as they gave us a physical ticket to be used for the ride down, but said nothing about it. Thankfully I put it in my backpack, but as we were 3 people and 2 left early we did not know, and the picture of the physical ticket barely worked. But besides this, great views and even on a windy day it was safe and you could enjoy.

All is well... Everything is correct... Beautiful fish... But everything IS TOO SMALL... IT NEEDS AN IMMEDIATE RENOVATION... IT'S NOT UP TO THE STANDARDS OF A BIG CITY... LIFE LACKING. EVERYTHING IS VERY GLOOMY. CHILDREN DO NOT ENJOY IT AS IT SHOULD BE.... IT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED. INCLUDING THE INFORMATION SIGNS. THANK YOU

But overall good experience, the tickets were accepted and you don't have to stand in line, the worker just took a photo of the QR code and let you in.

Ordered the tickets for the zoo through Headout and walked from the Ramlas through the park to it. Once there, we were kindly helped at the ticket counter as we needed these tickets hard copy, they did print them out. Very much enjoyed this zoo and everything went smoothly thanks to ordering from Headout. Thanks again, John.

Both routes through Barcelona are well worth seeing. If you can only do one and can't get off, e.g. on a cruise, I would recommend the orange route. You will see fantastic house facades and also have a great view of the harbor and Barcelona from above. The green route is particularly suitable if you want to visit the Sagrada Familia and Park Güell. Make sure you book your tickets for these sights a few days in advance! Do the park first at lunchtime and the cathedral in the afternoon, or better still, spread it over two days. I visited the cathedral separately and combined the park with the bus. It's better if you have two days. and

The view of the city is beautiful and so is the park! However, if you go at the end of the day, in the last hour, you won't have time to see the whole park.
Easy purchase via the website.

Muy bueno el recorrido y el servicio prestado, con relación al Teleferico se produce una confesión porque hay dos telefericos, uno el que sube desde el puerto hasta monjuic y propiamente el de monjuic que esta en la montaña. El Acuario estuvo bien pero esperaba mas, con eventos con delfines o ballenas como en Miami

The place is outstanding, the online guide discreet, inside there is a lack of attractions that would enhance the place, for example the possibility of listening to musical pieces even a few minutes long or alternatively give audio guides inside which in addition to explanations there is also a musical experience to be had when sitting in the theater.

When I purchased the Hola Barcelona cards, I went to read the reviews and was a little concerned xbecause so many people complained that they were not able to pick up the cards right away.
In fact on the website it is reported to go to the machines at the Airport, enter the Qcode etc....
I recommend you follow our advice:
We simply looked for
the tourist information office, which you will find near the final gate from which you exit the airport(I attach photo).
So as soon as you get on the plane head for the exit, without looking around for who knows what.
When you arrive at this info point (there is a statue of a horse in front of it, you can't miss it), hand over the Hola Barcelona card(s) purchase sheet and the employee will issue the cards to you on the fly.
All very simple.
With these you will be able to get around, on practically any means, except the Aerobus that goes from the airport to the center (you don't need it because a few hundred meters away you will find the metro... xwhy pay for the bus!:bad_shrug:), and the cable car (which we didn't take x time.
Enjoy Barcelona, it's beautiful!!! 💯

It was very nice! We arrived early and wanted to start the tour but could only go into the house on our designated time slot. We had to wait for a while till we entered. It was beautiful! The bar in the roof was nice and allowed for a relaxing stop with a view of the city.

A well-preserved Gothic cathedral with many beautiful altars and impressive Gothic choir stalls. You have a great view of the city from the accessible roof. There is also a very well-made virtual reality show in which the highlights of the basilica are shown.
