In need of inspiration?
In Barcelona, the classics will never change! Casa Milà, Plaza Reial in El Gotico, Sagrada Familia, Cathedral of St Eulalia with its crypt, Casa Battlo, Güell Park & Palace, Santa Caterina market, Consell de Cent, Palau de la Generalita and Barceloneta Beach are just a few of the places you must not miss.
Your Barcelona rental car will take you everywhere: visit Olympic Port and Torre Agbar that is illuminated at night, walk the Rambla, visit the amazing Boqueria market and ride the Ferris wheel along the Passeig Joan de Borbo with your children. Be sure to visit Plaça de Catalunya, the summit of Montjuïc, Casa Batllo de Gaudi, Placa Reial and Ciutadella Park.
If you would like to get back to nature, head out of the city. After all, buy-back vehicles are there to help you avoid major centres! Visit Agrari del Baix Llobregat Park or Laberint d'Horta Park. If you prefer a more remote area, take refuge in the Turó del Putxet Gardens. Garraf Park, more to the south offers beautiful panoramas, including an ocean view.
A word of advice: As with most touristic cities, it is preferable to visit popular sites on weekdays to avoid the weekend crowds.
