Barcelona is a city of many highlights. There is so much to explore, and much of it is only a short walk from the cruise terminal, which is itself only minutes away from the beginning of  Las Ramblas, one of the most famous streets in the world, with some of the most famous high street names to be found there.

Places that are a must to visit are:

• Sagrada Familia
• Park Güell
• Gaudi Museum
• Las Ramblas (shopping)
• Parc de Montjuic
• National Museum of Art de Catalunya (for the views over Barcelona if nothing else)
• Nou Camp (home of Barcelona Football Club, for the fans amongst you)

For anyone cruising in and out of Barcelona, it would be well worth adding a pre or post cruise hotel stay as there is plenty to see and do.
