Barcellona & Palma map & itineraries

[salseros2003]

Dear All cruisemates,

 

we are looking for maps and/or foot itineraries for Barcellona and Palma.

 

Any suggestions? We prefer skipping shore excursion organized by the cruiseship and visit by ourselves both cities.

 

Thanks

For Barcelona you can buy(or just read at a book store) the Insight Guides Barcelona Step by Step. This book highlights each neighborhood and tells you where to walk. It then has a pullout map which shows all the walks in one place.

IF you are only there for one day then you'd have to decide which sights are of interest to you and then make your own walk.

I bought Frommer's book 24 Great Walks in Barcelona. It is really good! Great info, maps and lots of pictures.

We stopped by the local libraries and found several books on travel to Spain and Mallorca.

 

Besides the usual Fodor's, Frommers, and Rick Steve's books, we found books on Cruising in Europe with port information that was very useful for our planning.

 

I just made copies of what pages and/or maps we wanted to save.

I do that too, so I don't have to carry a whole bunch of books. I even print out pages from cruise critic with the information people give about an area. I keep the pages in a plastic sleeve in my front pocket of my luggage
