If you only do ten things
An opinionated, ranked shortlist of the experiences worth your limited time — what to actually do at each, when to go, what it costs, and the traps to dodge. Every pick is a real pin: tap View on the map to open its full profile and see what's within ten minutes.
Ask anything about these ten — how to combine them in a day, which to skip if you're short on time, how to beat the queues. I read the list above and check live sources before answering.
Know the ground before you walk it
Each barri has its own rhythm, prices and pitfalls. Here's the honest character of the eight you'll actually spend time in — who each one suits, the streets worth wandering, what to see, and where the tourist traps hide. Tap any must-visit spot to jump straight to its pin on the map.
The practical bit
Exactly which ticket to buy, how the zones work, how to get in from the airport without getting fleeced — and a live, date-specific briefing for your trip.
Enter your dates and we'll research what's actually happening — festivals, holidays, closures, weather and crowd levels — for your exact window.
Your briefing will appear here. We pull live sources the moment you ask, so each set of dates gives a fresh answer.
There is no single right answer — it depends on how long you stay and how much you'll ride. Here's the honest comparison.
