Our 5 day Barcelona CityPass has proven highly effective. Suitably would for the Gaudi Park visit the entrance fee with a time frame for the visit (similar Sagrada Familia) enclose, as there are long queues there. Very practical, the card for all transport in the city is - especially metro, with all the important points in a short time (also rapid Zugsfolge) are achieved. Legal pleasant various include declared admissions or discounts. Useful is definitely a hotel in a central location. Overall, the Turbo-pass is a good - albeit not very favorable - offer. Caution about theft (therefore there's no photo of the otherwise very good successful Tour)
The Barcelona City Pass has at the moment the most worthwhile when I saw the huge queue in front of the Sagrada Familia and we could easily walk past it.
I don't think the passport paid for itself on me. Next time I'll look closely at what's really included. The airport express bus: not included. The hop-on-and-off bus, only one day, so you have to cover both routes (there weren't three) in one day.
Great offers and local transport are always worth traveling with a turbopass
So the order and delivery ran smoothly. The pass consists of several cards (one for the Sagrada Familia, one for local transport, one for the Hop on Hop off Bus and another for the discounts and free entries). Sagrada Familia: Immediate admission. Unfortunately, the towers were closed on our day, but we got our money back from Turbopass. And that without any problems. Hop on Bus: No problem. You get your bus ticket with which you can drive around for a whole day. Public transport ticket: ran problem-free ticket for the rest: it's not worth it, because simply the highlights such as the Casa Batllo and the Park Guell bring no or only 3 euros discount. Because of the riots in Barcelona, all the museums were closed in one day, so we did not go to any museum. Overall, the pass was financially not worth it for me. There are other passes where the highlights are completely included including almost lane. I would buy that in the future. In addition, both the hop on bus, the Sagrada and also the public transport for exactly the price in Barcelona to purchase had been. So you do not save that either.
The use of public transport was absolutely easy. The visit of the Sagrada Familia was a bit more exciting. The confusion and the bad orientation are not related to the performance of Turbopass. The staff had a problem with the voucher when using the Hop On Hop Off bus. They wanted to take us the voucher first, then we got it again, after the staff 10 minutes around phoned and the places on the upper deck were then all occupied. The plastic card was rejected wherever we presented it. The importance of the voucher became clear to us only when we wanted to do the shipping. We almost threw it away after the bus ride! All in all, if we had someone in the group who had been to Barcelona before, we could have used your offer better. For us it was a losing business because we were either too stupid to trust that the presentation of the voucher or the plastic card would somehow get a helping hint, or we thought it worked so well, like in other cities. So a very expensive experience for us.
We bought the City Pass from Turbopass for 4 days. I had that in Rome and was very satisfied. At least here in Barcelona we would not recommend him. But everyone should check that out for themselves. It is necessary for some attractions (Sagrada Familia, Park Güell, ...) scheduled tickets, for others, these are at least worth recommending, because only a certain number of tourists are admitted. In the city pass you can only book the entrance to the Sagrada Familia. That works fine. For other things worth seeing (eg the Casa Batlló) the City Card offers a lot of discounts, BUT these can not be specified when buying tickets online nowhere. So you either have to pay the full price when you buy online or you go to the ticket counter (at the risk that there will be no tickets for the time you arrive there). Then that means - wait at the ticket counter and wait, wait, wait. Then with the purchased tickets (price includes a penalty fee for the purchase at the ticket counter, which is at least at individual sites higher than the discount by the Barcelona Card) in the queue at the inlet and wait again, wait, wait. Lessons learned: Take a close look at the benefits of the Barcelona City Pass and see if the savings are so big and worth twice the time it takes to get started.
There are not enough important attractions in the turbo pass included. What we did with it would have been paid normally, not less but not more. Unfortunately, there was nowhere fast entry due to the pass
We have visited several cities with the turbo pass. For Barcelona, that was unfortunately a flop. Other than the Hop on-Hop-of-Tour and the entrance to the cathedral, we would have had to pay extra for all the sights that would have interested us. But this pass is too expensive. Pity!
Offers many free entries but can hardly be used.
The pass we got quickly sent home. He is not very cheap. After two days, the ticket was no longer recognized by entrance grille and my husband had to apply for a new one right on the spot
Entry into the Sagrada gin smoothly. That was great! The Öffitickets have worked wonderfully and uncomplicated. The Park Guell was not included in the Turbo Pass, although it was previously advertised. Also not included was the express bus (A1 & A2) from the airport. Although that was also declared. Our journey to the hotel took longer than expected. From the attached discount booklets, we could draw much, the included map was also very helpful. Also, the transaction to get the passport was very straightforward and convenient. Everything arrived in time by mail.
For the use of public transport, the passport was very helpful. However, I usually had to pay extra for the main attractions (except Sagrada Familia). If you like to visit numerous museums, the pass is definitely worth it. I would like to point out once again that you get discounts everywhere with a student card.
The Turbopass Barcelona in turn offers many possibilities. Unfortunately, not so strong compared to other cities. Especially the Hopp On Hopp Off Bus lags behind, as many attractions can not be approached directly.
Basically good, but definitely read the details! Barcelona Card, Barcelona City Pass, there are many different names and passports. We bought the Barcelona Card for 3 days = 110.- Euro / person mainly because we thought we could use the Barcelona Bus Turistic for a full 3 days. This was a painful mistake, we were only allowed to use this City Sightseeing Bus for 1 day. Is also a bit ambiguous in the description. Otherwise good, including entrance to the Sagrada Familia Familia without waiting time, including harbor tour, including use of public transport and especially for lovers of museums (which we could not use due to lack of time) free admission to many museums and attractions. So before necessarily read exactly what you want to use concretely and then buy the appropriate passport. In case of doubt - even if it is more expensive, but possibly targeted individual bookings in advance, may save money. In view of the limited time (3 days stay) we had opted for a (expensive?) Overall package (eg use of public transport without constantly having to check single trips), which we finally could use extensively and the total price probably "used up" to have.
Great city and make the round trip on top of the Montjuic and visit the Palau Guell on the Ramblas. The hop on hop off bus great ... definitely a full day for planning. I did not feel the Turbo Pass Barcelona as well as the one for London. You either have to use the Barcelona Card or the expression of the turbo pass and thus there are sometimes different discounts .... a bit confusing. In addition, it is a shame if in the Sagrada Familia as basics as an audio guide is not there and must be borrowed separately. The discount with the BarcelonaCard is sometimes different than described only on certain tickets eg Hin u. Return to the Montjuic but not on the single ride.
The idea is good. But you have to know that the price scale after days refers to the use of public transport, which is rarely needed in Barcelona, as you better explore the city on foot. We were there on our first visit 7 days and have the public max. Used 5 times. For € 50 more is out of proportion. For the return to the airport our "passport" was no longer valid and we had to take the bus. The inclusive attractions offered in the turbo pass (Sagrada Familia, Picasso Museum etc.) are already available for a 2-day booking for 79.90. In addition, the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya (F1 track) is 2 hours by train away and therefore only interesting for real fans. The incl. Harbor tour costs regularly 7.50 and is nice, the Colon de Mirrador you do not have.
Some attractions have discounts but you should first inform yourself exactly what is actually included in the pass. The good thing is that the trip to the airport is included. But if the ticket was really worth 100% depends on the personal needs and also how long the stay is and whether, one or two days completely spent on the beach, this is depending on the location of the accommodation within walking distance easy to reach and you would need no public transport. Any bus company is also not included in the ticket / passport. An advantage for example is that if eg. For the 1 May the ticket is booked, which counts then the hours only from the first devaluation If one arrives for example late in the evening then counts also only from there and not at 8.00 o'clock in the morning if one still has no use of it.
Insgesamt ist der Barcelona City Pass eine gute Sache, doch leider kommt er incl. Fahrkarte für den Nahverkehr in 3 physischen Abschnitten. Jeder muß prüfen, ob sich der Pass wirklich lohnt. Es sind sehr viele Museumsvergünstigungen enthalten, und manche Ermäßigungen sind recht gering.
We were very pleased with the passport when it came to public transport, and the Hop on Hop off bus was great too. Unfortunately, the offer of entries was a bit small. We were used to London and Dublin better perks in really interesting sights.
