PLUS, for one backer I will fly to YOUR city and film an episode of Attaché with YOU in it. These rewards will go FAST so please don't wait, head over to the Kickstarter campaign and help us bring this book to you.

A quick tip: only go to restaurants that don't have a menu in english outside. They are for tourists and they're normally terrible. Eat where people from the city eat.

On the tipping side, I must emphatize that tipping is a real tip here. Only tip if you are satisfied. No one will look you bad or treat you differently if you don't tip. Tip is considered a nice gesture for good service, not a mandatory thing.

As a local i would highly recommend you use the Bus and get a phone app to know when they come. You'll avoid the pickpocketing, you'll meet locals and it's not an oven. I seriously recommend that for elder people.

STAY AWAY FROM LA RAMBA RESTAURANTS , over priced and very bad quality cooking .

As an american that moved to Barcelona a month ago, I cannot tell you how accurate your videos is. My wife and I are also watching your Paris and London Videos since we are going there soon. Gracias!

Cool little tip: T10 cards are also valid for the trip from the city center to the airport and the other way around, but only for the train and the bus number 46 or N16/N17 (night buses), not the Aerobus. A T10 costs you 9.95€ and gives you 10 journeys, so you can basically go from the airport to the city center for under 1€. Of course the bus number 46 is a normal city bus, so it can be a bit uncomfortable if you carry around big luggage, but anyway, I think the deal is pretty good. Hope it helps someone to save a little more! PD: And of course, you can buy the T10 at the train station, at terminal 2 of the Airport.

Thank you very much for this episode. I was between Vancouver, Mexico City and Barcelona back in March 2018. This episode swayed me to Barcelona and yes, Barcelona was bloody amazing.

12 days for my trip and I can't stop watching videos of Barcelona, this was one of my favorites. Good job!!

Best travel video I found anywhere for Barcelona! Awesome stuff guys!

You're hilarious. I'm can't wait to fly into Barcelona on Thursday. Thanks for the tips, this is super helpful!

Wish I watched this video before hitting Barcelona... great tips 🤘🏻

Loved the video, fast paced and spot on. Great job, will definitely watch more and I subscribed.

Going back there for the third time on NYE, travelling solo. Fell in love with this city!! A must visit guys

I just went to Barcelona ....maybe it was because I went during the off season (October) but pickpockets were nothing to worry about even as a female solo-traveller. Just as safe as NYC, London, or Paris, don't be a moron and pay attention to your surroundings. In fact, I had an amazing time. Don't be intimated by all the pickpocket hype!

Just back yesterday. FABULOUS! Just go. Took me 25 years but totally worth it. A propos pickpockets.Actually the police seem to be on to this. A visible police presence , although not oppressive.Beggars and buskers are constantly on the lookout since they will be busted. So you don't get hassled too much. As with any tourist city, just be aware.Otherwise perfect!

Alex, just got back from Barcelona and I can easily see why this is a Food City. In fact while I did have some Spanish food including one of the few good tapas places (most "tapas" are just a mishmash of meals in smaller portions, or tourist restaurants), my favorite food experiences were things I didn't even think I'd get in Barcelona. I had great Japanese food. I had great pizza. I had great baked goods. Oh my god, baked goods are so good in Barcelona! Also I love Barcelona bars. Not only are they everywhere, but many are open for breakfast so you can get an espresso and your morning pastry or whatever. Finally, espresso! It is everywhere! This is a city that LOVES its coffee. Espresso machines are everywhere in this city. One of the shop owners told me that espresso machines are given for free but then you have to buy the beans through that vendor only. So this means even places that normally wouldn't serve coffee serve coffee. T-10 ticket for transit. Holy hell this is such a solid transit system. Bus and metro is awesome. Tram is kind of out of the way but I guess is okay once you're in the area. Credit card usage was no problem everywhere, including transit.

CBO Stands for Chicken Bacon & Onion!

Thanks for this great video! Watched it before and after going to Barcelona (a week ago) and your tips came in super handy. Barcelona is a wonderful city and I am so happy we went. I also did try the CBO (because I watched this video) at the same McDonald's (I actually sat in the same seat you did in the video - not because I'm creepy but because the restaurant was crowded and it was the only one available...lol), and the CBO was AMAZING! Keep up the great work!

This is a very helptful guide from the airport to the city. Thank you.

Man.. I can't wait to get there.. Traveling tomorrow 🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺

Thanks for the video, found some practical tips for my trip to Barcelona

My family is going to Barcelona this December. I find your video very helpful. Thank you.

Great video! Going to Barcelona in the fall, and this was really helpful. Keep making more of these ;) Liked and subscribed (Y)

Another great video as always :D Barcelona's going on my "must-visit" list now.

the fact that the metro system can take you right to the playa de playa beach is amazing ! highly rate the metro there

Thanks so much for this video! I can't wait to go to Barcelona in may.

Thanks Attaché, these tips helped a lot on my trip to Barcelona.

One of the best travel vlogs, and I have seen a ton

Barcelona is a beautiful city and I would definitely recommend visiting. It’s a very safe city to travel by yourself. The first time I visited this city I went by myself and I was nervous because I had never visited Europe and didn’t know what to expect. From the airport I took the bus which went straight to the city center. I liked that It has free wifi. I got there at night and walked a few blocks from the bus stop to my hotel and was a little scared at first but it after being there for a couple days I realized that it was a very safe city and there’s no reason to be scared. Sometimes I was out during the middle of the night and never felt any danger. I never had any problems with pickpockets. I always carried a backpack with a lock and never got anything stolen. Definitely visit this beautiful city, I’m hoping to go back after covid, hopefully Messi is still playing with barcelona haha.

Love your sense of humor, Alex! You're so funny! You make the video so entertaining! Thank you!

Here we go Barcelona 😍

8:06 watch your wallet ! So accurate.Thanks for mentioning that. We were in Barcelona just 3 weeks ago. On our last evening around 4pm, we were walking back to hotel from Metro station, a pickpocketer opened our backpack and took the phone out, we caught him live and snatched our phone back and confronted him. No one in public came to back us up and he casually walked away. These pickpocketers have a unique personality. One way to identify them is when you see someone walking around in a crowded location and eyeying on tourist's bags. We feel lucky to get our phone back :)

Wow! The best video I´ve seen about travel guide. Fast paced, humour, and straight to the point. Good job guys!

Another great video. thanks Alex and team.

I absolutely love your style and manner of presentation.You certainly pack in a lot of critical information.Well done.

great way to present a city keep it up guys.practical tips make a tourists day better.

An absolutely gorgeous city, great place to walk, with good transit - wonderful food and friendly people. The pickpocketing there is raised to an art form. You really have to be careful but it is not a reason to stay away. Well worth a visit.

wow such a nice short and such informative video about Barcelona .. gonna travel soon and this will definitely help thanks again and a big thumbs up

great show! im glued! thank you!

This video is so cute and so well made!!

Thanks, good info, fast delivery

really interesting! Love your work!

flamenco is gyspy music from Andalucía, not catalan music. Catalonia received a lot of inmigration from Andalucía in the XX century. Catalan folklor are the so called sardanas, they sound very different compared to flamenco's sounds

Really appreciate this guide. Booked a trip to Barcelona yesterday for 4-7/8, and know very little of the city itself. So this one was very useful (and a funny presentation makes it more interesting and fun to keep watching without getting bored). Thanks alot!

I love that u visit mcds in every city. We do too!

Enjoyed your video great tips! I'll be in Barcelona in May 2019

This was a really informative video... and hilarious too!

Great Video, very helpful!

Loved this video so much, so hilarious! I'll be in Barcellona next week, thanks for the infos!

Thank you for this video! Traveling to Barcelon in July.

Superb video buddy, extremely informative. Thank you so much. I will be going to Barcelona in July. 👍👍👍

Whenever he announces things (i.e. : taxis, trains, etc) it feels like he's announcing oscar nominations are something lol I love it

Really good perfect length informative video!

Excellent info! Really practical. Thanks! :)

I'm So Glad that I watched this video.

One of the better Videos on Barcelona

Awesome video, thanks for the heads up. Keep the vid's coming :D

Great info and great video ! Watching from Iceland :)

Great video, enjoyed it.

Great guide!

another great piece of advice. i saw your amsterdam video 2 days before we went and that transpo thing was very helpful. and next week will be in barcelona and immediately search your channel. really very helpful. that mc donald part is supposed to be an alternative for travellers on a budget.

Loved it!

And all the museums are free on Sundays after 3:00. Picasso was so beautiful, i go to see the buildings and old streets with no cats. The Rambla is ugly compared to gotic arra.

I went to Barcelona this past Janruary and it was an amazing city. It was also a very affordable city. I loved getting breakfast with fresh squeezed orange juice (best orange juice consistantly). It was also the time of sales in clothing stores so there were amazing discounts on high quality clothes.

nice video thanks for sharing, i'm happy to be part of this city

Thanks for the heads up; I'll be in Barcelona sept. Can't wait

Excellent! Thank you!

very good video quick and to the point

I think we found the first Attache Tshirt opportunity. "Never travel without emergency Doritos"

Just came across you guys and I love your travelogs! Alex is a dude, very funny.

Thank you very much for the tip!

I am an avid travel vlog viewer. I watched hundredS of clips. To be honest, your format and style made you one of my favorite vlogger.

That's a great, and funny, quick guide to Barcelona. lol Nice work.

Great video!!

Thanks for the advice.

Thank you sooo much for this video u have no idea how helpful it was . Im traveling to Barcelona by myself in 4 weeks and thank god for this video because now i feel more prepared for my trip :D

Great, thank you so much!

BARCELONA é muito lindo!!!!

Great videos!

Great video dude

You're GOOD! (Lot's of fun to learn your tips)

Update: I just got back from my trip in Barcelona in November 2016. You can get to to Passaig de Garcia for 1Euro on the Rodalies train departing from Terminal 2B. There is a free airpot shuttle to Terminal 2B. You can purchase the 10 (train) trips for 9.95 Euro from the machine at the train station. This ticket can be used on the Rodalies train and the Barcelona city subway. The 10 trip ticket is also a multiperson ticket, meaning you can share this train ticket with your friends (or travel group). In my opinion this is the cheapest way to get to Passaig de Garcia ( Barcelona city centre).

Wow, such a helpful video!

Good job, dude. Just subscribed 👍

My two sisters and I, in our 50's, were dropped off in downtown Barcelona on their Catalonia National Day. It was an experience. It felt like Family Day. At a certain hour from one end of of this huge street starts "The Wave" with a loud ROAR and comes back again. The people who stood near us, are proud people, and were very happy to share their history with us while we were there. Also Gaudi, who I had not idea who he was, we couldn't get enough of how brilliant this man was. We went into a few of his structures and was blown away. Pick pockets, see that young 20 something nicely dress women there well we were told by a local to be careful, she's a pick pocket. We wondered why she was following us for a few minutes. We would have never suspected it, but keep your goods in front of you and your cameras close by. It's a beautiful city and we walked around a lot of it and felt safe.

Super useful Dud.. Thanks

salud my friend, thanks!

Hello! I loved the review, but i'd like to suggest for the next one 3G/LTE reviews from the local phone operators for visitors who wants to have a local numbers for a week, days, or something. I know this is a lot of work but as you said, wifi is sufferable, but LTE connection is a must nowadays and we cannot rely on roaming charges.
