Hi I got some great suggestions from this group on my earlier post and have short listed this itinerary for our 9 day Barcelona visit with 2 young kids during April holy week
Day1- fly in to Barcelona around noon
Day2-Monserrat day trip
Day3-la sagridia and park guell
Day4- Girona, Figures Dali musuem- mostly will.go with a day tour company
Day5- local
Day6-sitges day trip
Day7-local
Day8-costa brava Tossa de Mar, Cadaques- mostly day tour company
Day9- fly back in the evening
Questions:
If we go with touring companies for Girona and Costa brava I don't think there is any more aVe train tickets I need to buy in advance as both monserrat and sitges are local trains. Is this true?
Reason I am leaning towards tour for Girona and Costa brava is transportation between different attractions might be easier with touring company
And what are recommended safe places to stay for families? I am debating between Example and Gothic quarters to be close to center and train stations. Looking for an apartment style with young kids so close to groceries and restaurants.
Other than Later sagridia and park guell any other tickets I need to purchase in advance even for attractions in Barcelona
Thanks much if you made it reading this far.
