Barcelona City Pass in a nutshell

A city card for every travel style

Barcelona offers 3 main city card types: Attraction-based passes like the Headout Barcelona Pass and the Go City Explorer Pass let you pick 2 to 7 sights and explore at your own pace. Day-based passes like the Go City Barcelona All Inclusive Pass are ideal for packed itineraries if you want to visit as many of the included attractions as you want over 2 to 5 days. For transport-heavy trips, the Hola Barcelona Travel Card bundles unlimited metro, bus, and tram travel with 25+ museum entries.

One pass, dozens of Barcelona's best sights

From a guided tour of Sagrada Família and a stroll through Park Güell to skip-the-line entry at Casa Batlló, La Pedrera, and the Picasso Museum, a single Barcelona city card unlocks Barcelona's biggest attractions, museums, walking tours, Hop-on Hop-off buses, and harbour cruises. Instead of juggling separate tickets for every stop, you bundle them into one digital pass.

Save up to 50% vs. individual tickets

Barcelona's top attractions cost €20–€40 each when booked individually. A city card bundles them at a steep discount, saving you up to 50% on combined admission prices, when you pick your own mix of 2–7 attractions, and the Headout Barcelona Pass saves up to 40% on a curated shortlist of must-sees. The more sights you visit, the more the pass pays for itself — most day-based passes break even after just 2–3 major attractions.

Book online, scan, walk right in

Every Barcelona city card is delivered digitally straight to your inbox. When you arrive at an attraction, just scan the QR code from your phone or present the email confirmation. Most passes give you up to 30 days or even a full year to activate after purchase, so there's no pressure to lock in dates. Pick your sights, show up, scan, and you're in.

Types of Barcelona City Passes explained: Day-Based vs. Attraction-Based

Attraction-based cards 

An attractions-based Barcelona city card allows you to choose and pay for entry to a set number of specific attractions from a curated list, rather than being limited by days or hours. You pick the number of attractions you want to visit (for example, 2, 3, 5, or 7), and the card grants you access to your selected sights over a flexible period (often up to 30 days from first use or date selected).

Recommended Tours:

  • Headout Barcelona Pass
  • Go City Barcelona Explorer Pass
  • Articket Passport

Day-based cards

A day-based Barcelona city card offers access to multiple museums and cultural sites, unlimited access to public transport, depending on the pass you pick, plus discounts for a set number of consecutive days (usually 2, 3, 4, or 5 days). It’s ideal for travelers who want to explore a wide range of sights and save money on transport and entrance fees while enjoying skip-the-line benefits at popular venues.

Recommended Tours:

  • Barcelona Card
  • Go City Barcelona All Inclusive Pass

Public transport cards

With a public transport card, you get unlimited travel on Barcelona’s metro, buses, trams, and suburban trains within the validity period (for example, 48, 72, 96, or 120 hours from first use). This type of pass is ideal for budget-conscious visitors, repeat travelers, or anyone staying outside the center who plans to ride transit multiple times a day. The key benefit is predictable daily spend and hassle-free movement across zones without buying single tickets each time.

Recommended Tours:

  • Hola Barcelona Travel Card: Unlimited Public Transportation

Which Barcelona City Pass is best for you

If you want to see top attractions on a budget

If your Barcelona wishlist revolves around a handful of big‑name sights, the Headout Barcelona Pass is a good fit when you want clarity and control over spend. You choose 2/3/4/5/6 attractions from a curated list that includes Sagrada Família, Park Güell, Casa Batlló, La Pedrera, FC Barcelona Museum, Barcelona Aquarium, and even the Hola Barcelona transport card, while saving up to 40% compared to buying individual tickets. The pass is valid for 30 days, so you can spread visits across your whole trip instead of cramming everything into a couple of intense days. This works best if you know your must‑dos and like having one payment that locks in both price and availability for high‑demand attractions.

The Go City Barcelona Explorer Pass is a good choiceif you want a bigger menu and longer flexibility window. It lets you pick 2–7 attractions from around 45 options, including icons like Sagrada Família and Park Güell plus museums, stadium tours, harbour cruises, and more, with savings typically up to around 40–44% on combined gate prices. You usually have months (often up to 12 months from purchase) to activate and use your chosen attractions, so it suits repeat visitors, long‑stay travellers, or anyone who wants to keep plans loose and still lock in strong per‑attraction value.

If you want to see as much as possible in a few days

For travelers looking to experience the best of Barcelona in a short time, the Barcelona Card and Go City Barcelona All-Inclusive Pass are the top choices.

The Barcelona Card offers free entry to over 25 museums (including must-sees like the Picasso Museum and MNAC), unlimited public transport (metro, buses, trams, and trains), and discounts on tours, attractions, and restaurants. It’s perfect for culture lovers who want seamless access to Gaudí’s masterpieces, historic sites, and hassle-free transit.

The Go City Barcelona All Inclusive Pass grants admission to 40+ attractions and tours, including Sagrada Família, Park Güell, and hop-on-hop-off bus rides. Unlike the Barcelona Card, it doesn’t include public transport, but it covers big-ticket sights with skip-the-line privileges. It’s ideal for those prioritizing iconic experiences over transit.

Both passes come in 1- to 5-day options, letting you tailor your sightseeing to your schedule. If you want all-in-one convenience (museums + transport), the Barcelona Card wins. If you prefer concentrated sightseeing without transit needs, Go City’s All-Inclusive Pass is the better pick.

If you want unlimited, hassle-free public transport

For stress-free commuting, the Hola Barcelona Travel Card is the undisputed winner. It covers unlimited rides on the metro, buses, trams, and regional trains (including airport transfers) for 48, 72, 96, or 120 hours.

Unlike tourist passes (e.g., Barcelona Card), the HOLA card is purely for transport. There’s no museum entry, but it’s cheaper if you don’t need attraction access. It’s ideal for:

  • Travelers staying outside the center (e.g., El Prat or nearby towns).
  • Visitors who’ve already booked timed attraction tickets and just need transit.
  • Anyone who prefers walking but wants backup rides for longer trips (e.g., Montjuïc or Park Güell).
