Family with children

Here we have put together a 2-day tour program, which we are sure you will like. This program is for children over six years. With younger children, you should omit one or two of the attractions.

For a family, an apartment or holiday accommodation can be a fairly inexpensive and practical alternative to a hotel. You can make your own food, while some apartments still offer the service of a hotel including room service and breakfast.

We offer lots of hotels with special family rooms. These are for three people or more. On Barcelona.de you can book hotels of all categories. Many hotels also offer the opportunity for small children to sleep in their parents' bed for free, or there are even free cots set up in the room. For a fee, at most hotels there are extra beds that can be set up in the room.

Again and again amazed children stand in front of the living statues of La Rambla. These are usually complex and imaginative costumes, such as robots, medieval knights or exciting fantasy figures. And all this without an entrance price. The actors are happy to receive even a small tip. If little children throw them some money they make an extra special effort.

The tunnel through the shark pool is a very special attraction, not only for children. Special family tickets make this quite expensive museum more affordable. For children of about 3-4 years old or older, the aquarium has an extra area to explore children's play in the underwater world.

Almost a must for any football fan. A visit to FC Barcelona, Europe's largest football stadium, and its museum also includes a tour of the locker rooms of the stars. You can also book tickets for home games of FC Barcelona.
For children of about 6 to 12 years.

360 famous people are staged beautifully. Many of the personalities of the characters are from Spanish and Catalan history, but the kings and princes are still quite interesting, maybe especially for the kids. Some areas are quite dark, so just take the little ones by the hand. Be sure to visit the café Bosc de les Fades afterwards. Your children will love it.
The museum is suitable for children of about 10 years and upwards, the cafe for children of about 3-5 years.

Huge cranes, gigantic container ships, cruise ships as tall as skyscrapers and many ships, sailboats, windsurfers and all kinds of sea birds. You can even look directly at the fish through a window in the ship floor. Not just your children will be amazed at the harbor cruise or the "harbor and coast" trip. The boat ride is included in the Barcelona Card.
