The Bus Turístic has two main routes, Red and Blue, both starting and ending near Plaça de Catalunya. You can easily switch between them at certain connection points. To start our tour, we first need to decide which part of the city we want to explore first.

Take a look at what each route primarily focuses on:

• 1. The Blue Route 🟦: Modernism and Heights

  • This route is a deep dive into Antoni Gaudí’s masterpieces, including Park Güell, Sagrada Família, Casa Batlló, and La Pedrera (Casa Milà).

  • It also takes you up to the Tibidabo mountain area and past the FC Barcelona Stadium (Camp Nou). This is the route for architecture lovers and those seeking great city views.

• 2. The Red Route 🟥: History, Coastline, and Olympic Legacy

  • This route covers the historic areas and the waterfront, including the Gothic Quarter, Port Vell, and Barceloneta Beach.

  • It also explores Montjuïc Hill, home to the Olympic Ring (from the 1992 Games), the MNAC (National Art Museum of Catalonia), and Miramar viewpoint. This is the route for history, sea views, and green spaces.
