Hi Frank,
ResponderEliminarThis is a great blog. You´re building a travel encyclopedia on Barcelona and Catalunya.
Only the information on the Barcelona Card is a bit out of date. For example:
- Picasso Museum - not included anymore
- Sagrada Familia - 1 euro off
- Colònia Güell/Cripta Gaudí - 15% off
- El Poble Espanyol - 25% off
Here´s the list of all the discounts (PDF).
Also, you can buy the card cheaper on barcelonacard.org. On this site you get 20% discount, while Barcelona Turisme only gives 10% discount for buying online.
Thanks and keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot for your comment! I have corrected the information which was out of date.
