Visiting Sagrada Familia

[alidor]

There are 6 of us staying at the Hotel Arts and I'm trying to decide if we want tickets to visit Sagrada Familia. I'm confused about the HOHO buses, though. I look at the maps and it looks like we pick up one, very near the hotel, but have to change buses enroute to get here.

 

Am I wrong?

I would just take the metro, much cheaper and the stop is right across the street from SF.

Sagrada Familia - if you want to visit there I would recommend booking tickets in advance. This saves having to stand in a long line to buy tickets on the day. When you book tickets online you need to decide what time you want to arrive. You choose an hour range and you have to arrive at that time.

 

HoHo buses - There are 2 companies with HoHo buses in Barcelona - Barcelona City Tour (red bus) and Bus Turistic (blue and white bus)

 

Both stop near Hotel Arts.

 

City Tour's stop there is on their east route (this goes to Sagrada Familia). Bus Turistic it is on the summer only green route and the red route. You can see where these different routes go to on my Barcelona Information pages (link in my signature).
