Barcelona trip

Hey guys,

I want to take my boy to see Barcelona for his 7th birthday next year but no clue on where to start, do any of you know a site which sorts packages out or would it be cheaper just to do it myself?

Any advice welcomed!

cheers

I went a few years ago booked flights with easy jet from Bristol. Booked the hotel on line, booked tickets on line and they where delivered to hotel. Works out cheaper than booking a package

HALA madrid

I go out and watch a few games a year. Book it all yourself.

about 48hrs before the game, the tickets go back online, you can pick tickets up quite easily for most games, outside of both madrid teams and big euro games.

Tickets range in price for game categories and position in stadium. I had tickets last season for valencia, was behind the goal but up in the gods, think it was about 60euro. Book the tickets 48hrs before the game, dont worry you will definitely get them and pick them up at the ground.

If you want madrid tickets etc then i had to get them from ticketmaster etc as its nearly impossible to get a couple of tickets normally.

Def do a tour of the ground, just dont do it game day as you miss alot out.

Buy a travel card, you can get it sent out to your home address before you go for 10% discount, i think its about 4euro a day and includes train, tube, metro and bus.

I know a great little bar full of locals for decent drinks about 800m from the ground, last time i was there it was 1.50 a pint.

Ryanair fly into El Prat from alot of airports and you can get decent deals booking with them.

If you had any questions feel free to PM me and if i can help i will.

Def worth a trip, its my fav European city by far.

Really appreciate it, It won't be the Madrid game so I'll start looking at flights etc now he idolizes Messi!

Barcelona is a lovely city, beautiful beach right at the front with plenty of restaurants, you can get some great deals booking yourself, we went from Cardiff with vueling direct.
