How many days should I stay in Barcelona?

Question

I have the option of staying 3 days, 4 days or 7days. I'll be flying in from Girona airport and probably staying at a hostel near the Rambles area.

Answer 1

I agree with Hondawoman.

Answer 2

I'm from Barcelona. Stay as long as you can, you may have seen all touristic places in Barcelona City in 4 days but after you can enjoy normal life there or visit nice areas nearby. You can visit Montserrat, the Pyrinees, Girona, Figueres, and go to the beach. There are a lot of beaches around. The ones from Barcelona city are too crowded (they are ok, though) but you can go to Sitges, Castelldefels, down to Costa Dorada (Tarragona area) or up north to Costa Brava (Girona Area) where beaches are great. Public transport is cheap in Spain, much cheaper than in UK.

Ask for info once you are there and decide depending on the weather. Hope you have a great time!!!!!

Answer 3

how bout foreever!

Answer 4

Check this out- if you stay too long, you'll probably run out of cash- and you will probably live in Barcelona from then on.

Answer 5

It depends on what the alternatives are, if you are going straight home after, then 7 days. If you are going to Athens then Istanbul after, then 3 days.

Answer 6

I've been there,4 days is suitable;have good trip

Answer 7

Stay 4... 3 is too little, and 7 is just too much.... I went for 5 days and it was too much... the fifth day I had nothing to do, so I'd go with 4

Answer 8

3 or 4 days should be enuf for you to see the major attractions. When i went there they had these tourists bus (the bus # was 100) and it would stop by the 12-15 major attractions. U get get on one of those bus with a daily ticket (if i recall correctly was like $5) and get off at the attractions you like, visit them and then go back on the next bus (they run every 20 minutes or so) and pick your next attraction to see.

Enjoy it. barcelona is awesome

Answer 10

I would stay for 7 days otherwise it's not worth it

Answer 11

4 days.

or 5.

maybe 3 is enough.

how about 6? nah, it could begin to be too much.

7 days would be too long.

yah....4 days, definitely

(or maybe 5)

Answer 12

how about forever forever forever

Answer 13

As many days as you can! So, I would vote for seven! You can visit the main tourist attractions in less than seven days, of course, but it is not all you could see and do in Barcelona. Being there once, I am afraid you will even find seven days not enough :)
