An app worth getting

This is a must for anyone planning a trip to Barcelona. Chalked full of history, practical information and resources I would highly recommend getting this App. Its worth every cent! Each section is broken into subsections and those subsections have all the info, phone numbers and contact information for each subject. There weren’t as many pictures as I was initially expecting however, this app allowed me to actually navigate my way while in Barcelona and made planning my trip easy and fun! Thoughtfully written and very well made- I’m so glad I got this App

Great app

I have used others apps in this series such as the Venice one which I found very useful. I find browsing using the app feels effortless and before I know it I have read and hopefully learned a lot of new and useful information. Thank you for such a useful and above all enjoyable experience.

Barcelona Unbound: Perfect Blend of History, Art and Travel Tips

Barcelona is my favorite of the cities I've toured in about 20 trips to Spain, France, Italy, England, Ireland and Greece. This app makes me yearn to go back for more.

Barcelona Unbound provides the perfect blend of history, art, photography, practical travel advice and directions to gastronomic delights for those who are visiting or just want to know more about one of the most striking cities in Europe. Anyone who has enjoyed the numerous travel guides on Spain, Italy, France, Greece, Hell, Mars and beyond written by the wife and husband team of Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls will come away well satisfied with the couple's initial foray into electronic publishing.

If Barcelona is on your itinerary, Barcelona Unbound belongs on your iPad and in your travel bag. Facaros and Pauls lead the journey through the largest city in Catalonia. Anarchy, Sagrada Familia, Gaudi, Mirò, Museu Picasso, Santa Maria del Mar, Vicky Christina Barcelona walking tours, the Catalan Crapper, Museu de l'Eròtica, it's all there, and then some. Whether you are planning a visit to the second largest city in Spain, or just want day dream and read about a walkable city where beauty and creativity abounds, this app is the guide for you.

Your Best Barcelona Buddy

Barcelona Art and Culture really ripped the boundaries from Barcelona. The map feature has a variety of categories which made finding the museums and all the attractions a simple task, identifying each flag with a name and a picture. The app is easy to operate, even for a novice, and we had no trouble using it to access any information we needed. Useful hints, such as suggesting we get our Sagrada Familia tickets online ahead of time, had us skipping a line that curved around for over a block. Since English explanations around the city were rare, the app's background and detailed stories enriched our experience. I would not have known about the secret past of Christopher Columbus or the elevator in his monument or the impact of the anarchists The vivid photographs were an added bonus. I hope Facaros and Pauls create apps for all the places we want to visit.
