[@omarraylee946]

This guy knows what he is doing asking about been going to bcn since 2018… 12 times a year he knows what he is talking about 😊

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Thank you!

[@ritawing1064]

Please remember we are in a terrible drought: residents are limited to 200 litres a day, which does not allow for long showers, let alone baths - and hotels use enormous amounts of water washing towels etc. Some annual events in parks will have been cancelled for the water problem.

Heading to Madrid and Barcelona in May, so this is a perfect video. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Patrick. Thank you for this video. Is Gothic Quarter safe in the evening or at night? What place(s) should I avoid?

[@ena2477]

Can you please include Celsius when describing the temperature? We're not all from the States.

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

I’ll keep that in mind… watch the June video!

[@LeanneWilcox]

Holding out for June Thank you for another great video as always

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Already putting the pressure on!

[@pableaux76]

Great vid, going at the end of the month. Do you recommend booking ahead for the Barcelona Pavillion by Montjuic?

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

As you know I always recommend booking in advance. The pavillion probably not as high of a demand though

[@LorriOConnor-cp7jb]

Thanks for all of your information 😊 I will be revisiting Barcelona sept 26th through the 30th. So I need all of your insights to ensure I get to see and eat 😋as much as possible in the very short time I have there 😅

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

You won’t be short on options

[@tomasthonell5445]

Really love the bar by the olympic diving arena. The view...!

[@jdmoncada8205]

I've been waiting for this! Will DL the guide when I get home.

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Great!!

[@glickyaron9490]

Good tips, much appreciated!

[@stevemarquis7704]

Great videos Patrick. We are heading to Madrid and Barcelona the second half of June so can't wait for your next monthly guide. We will be in Barcelona 26 June leaving 2 July. Since you seem to appreciate beer one thing I am having a hard time finding is a good guide to Spanish beer other than a list of 'you try all of these'. All well and good but I like Brown and Red non-hoppy non-bitter ales and I'm not seeing anything close yet. Any recommendations?

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Thank you! Have you had a look at my guide with different craft beer places on the map? You can also try some beers like Montseny brewery they might have something up your alley

[@juanpinto1041]

Another great video Patrick! And May is one of my favorite months to be in Barcelona, hopefully can make it this year in May or in June. By the way it was so great meeting you at the airport of Barcelona in December! :)

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Thank you! May really is one of the best months to be here

[@ladye6907]

Very informative. Thanks. I was planning to visit Monserrat on Monday, on Pentecost Monday. Do you think is going to be crowded up there ?

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Thank you! It’s always crowded, but being a holiday it might be a bit more crowded with locals having the day off

Hi Patrick! Can you please recommend a good flamenco show in Barcelona? I was looking at Tablao Flamenc Cordovès… do you think that one is good or is there something else you recommend? Thanks! Will be in BNC this week!

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

That’s a nice one

Hi Patrick , just saw your video about metro cards....and have question: T- casual card nowadays available for tourists ? In web i can see option only with Only T-mobilitat., so its for local people right ?

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

It’s for everyone

[@sclscl]

just stumbled across your channel great content! I tried to purchase tickets for Sagrada Familia from the official website but I CAN"T PAY >.< I am in USA tried calling my bank, credit card companies, 4 different travel type credit cards none of them worked. Check different forum and this is a common problem. Any chances I can still get ticket? As of right now only very limited tickets left during my stay, I guess I can only visit the outside T_T

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

Thank you! Yeah, that is a problem for many with credit cards without the possibility to verify the purchase, especially the States. You can maybe try buying through a company.

[@sclscl]

@@PatrickGuideBarcelona good news I got through the payment with a low end American Express,🥳. My advice don’t use any visa or master just try to use AMEX even it will charge FX transition fees like $2 on top. However during the process I was panicking and selected the Friday 7pm entry time coz that was the first one I saw available. Is this a good time slot?

[@PatrickGuideBarcelona]

@sclscl you’ll be fine. At least you got one
