Barcelonahacks: Great Info for Residents and Tourists in Barcelona

August 16, 2022

Are you a tourist on a trip or a resident living in Barcelona looking for great information regarding what to do here? Barcelonahacks has accumulated a wealth of knowledge and deals to point you in the right direction.

Their website is broken into a few primary sections that make it easy to navigate and gather tips quickly: Planning My Trip, Transport, What To See, Where To Eat, What To Do, and Tickets (for purchasing specific entries to museums, etc). Every section has a massive amount of subpages and subsections covering specific topics. For example, Planning My Trip has guides dedicated to tips for couples visiting Barcelona, traveling with kids to the city, places with disability access, ideas for itineraries, and of course top things to do.

If you want to know more about what has inspired Barcelonahacks, you don't need to look any further than their About Us page. It explains their journey of how they started (over ten years ago) and into how they've become more of a hybrid between an informational site and a travel / itinerary planner. In fact their journey is precisely what makes it such a valuable source of information for Barcelona, because they started working pretty normal day jobs and put together the website over time as people who experienced the city as visitors and on into being residents.

In their words, their blog "was created with the values of friendship, sharing, respect, and diversity." Furthermore, they encourage reaching out to them directly. We've had a chance to get to know the people behind the site, and they are very friendly. :)

They have integrated themselves into the tapestry of the city with several partnerships, including: Barcelona Turisme, Tiqets, Casa Batlló, La Pedrera, TMB, and more.

Lastly, they continually update their website with new pages and additions to the various sections covering the numerous activities, places to eat, and hidden treasures of Barcelona. It's worth the time to look at and explore, as even someone who has lived here for years can surely find some diamonds of knowledge that they would not have found otherwise.
