Here are 5 things you'll love and hate about Barcelona. No city is perfect and Barcelona is no exception. There's so much to love about Barcelona but it's also important to recognize what some people won't like when visiting.
As always, you should travel to Barcelona to see for yourself!

Did you love or hate Barcelona after your first visit?

1. In the old days, there were horse carriages running in the city and the octagons were cut out so that the carriages could see each other and not crash. The core city is still old buildings and architecture only being renovated or repaired. It's in fact symbolic of the city map 2. The taxi ride share services are not very focused as they have a brilliant bus service connecting to 3 major parts of city which most visitors use (unless they are at a luxurious place sending pickup) & the locals use the bus or metros as well. The terminals and city are well connected. Often, the cabs take longer than public transport

I know it is too late for you, but I hear this - use the Aerobus when you leave the airport

@camdendavid 4 месяца назад

Will do the next time I'm in town!

I think Uber was banned in Barcelona until fairly recently, so that might explain why it's so hard to coordinate with them at the airport. But taxi rides from the airport to the city center have a fixed rate and it's around 30€, so I don't think it's going to be much more expensive than the Uber ride. I recommend using the Aerobus which takes you to the center for about 7 € (although wayfinding for it at the airport is non-existent) or taking the metro or Rodalies if your accomodation is near a metro/train stop.

Thanks for this!

Sound like a great part of what you didn't like was because of going in the hot summer. We loved the place in April and found the beautiful detail on all the buildings to be outstanding. We used Welcome Pickups to get from airport to hotel and they were waiting for us right outside customs. I love your images of this fantastic place. Made me very nostalgic.

I think that's a fair assessment! I'm looking forward to visiting when it's a bit cooler out haha. Thanks again for the support :)

Barcelona is a spread out city?! Have you taken a look at population density across the different cities you're thinking about?

@camdendavid 5 дней назад

Sure have! Just feels verryy spread out compared to others in Europe. Not necessarily a bad thing -- just something travelers should keep in mind :)

@marcosrodes2897 22 дня назад

Walking, far distances?? 😅😅 sure you didn’t experienced Madrid or other cities in Latam. Not to mention the US suburbia-type cities or other big cities in Europe… I would say Barcelona is super walkable and not that of a big city at all

@camdendavid 20 дней назад

I'd agree that it's smaller than some cities, but it definitely seems more spread out than other popular spots in Europe. And the street design really seemed to have an impact. Not necessarily a bad thing -- just something to be aware of :)

Please try Seville at some point! Curious to see your comparison to Barcelona - lived there many years ago.

@camdendavid 3 месяца назад

It's on my list!

@kconway75ify 24 дня назад

We’re in Barcelona now and just came from several days in Sevilla. It was so great. Small town vibes and very quaint. Had a great bike tour. Barcelona is massive and a much bigger city compared to it (we from Dallas tx so we’re used to big cities). We’ve enjoyed both for sure.

@tammyn 24 дня назад

Cool hope we’ll be seeing a video on it!

Some context about the ubers: there is an ongoing conflict between taxis and ubers. In a nutshell, because taxis have to pay a taxi licenses and ubers don't, taxis argue that ubers have no right to operate. There have been numerous strikes with taxis collapsing Barcelona. So, although I disagree, I understand that Ubers don't have a designed place in the airport.

Great video ! But your end screen shows a video from Airbnb Cape Town. 🤕

@camdendavid Месяц назад

Thanks for letting me know! I just updated that :)

Did you use an air b and b? Our host is asking for a copy of the passports of all occupants. They said that it’s the city’s rule for a year now to register for air b and b

@camdendavid 2 месяца назад

We did use Airbnb and it's pretty common for the host to require a copy of the passports. I think you should be in good shape - just make sure to give them a copy and not the original. Hope that helps :)

@Tomasito561 6 месяцев назад

I completely agree about the intersections. I remember thinking how incredibly inefficient they are. I don’t think I could ever live in Barcelona for that reason alone

@camdendavid 6 месяцев назад

Funny to think it’s notable enough for both of us to be talking about it on the internet haha
