Q: If I visit Barcelona with my kids, is it worthwhile to purchase Barcelona Card?

A: The answer to this question depends on the attractions you want to visit. Since at most of the attractions children are entitled to a significant discount (or even free access) without Barcelona Card, in most cases it is not worth to purchase the card for them (for additional information – Kids and Families in Barcelona).

Nevertheless, sometimes it is recommended to buy the card also with children. If you want to visit several attractions were kids do not get a discount but they are included in the card, do not hesitate to purchase it. In some websites children who are between 4 and 12 years old get the card at a reduced price, the discount is almost 50%. But note that not all of the websites offer this reduction.

If you visit the city with your kids and want to order Barcelona Card, you also need to take into consideration the fact that there is no option to purchase a child ticket for 2 days.

Moreover, Barcelona Card is a personal card and you have to write your name on it, which means that it is not transferable and you cannot share it with other people. That is why you need to buy a card for every member of your family.
