Barcelona...

Buy a T-10 ticket for the tube to get around, it's around €6 euros. Don't go to the church on top of mt. tribidabo as it is just a rip off getting there. the docks are nice though on a hot day

Cheers! are the pickpockets and "ladies of the night" as bad as they say?

I went there about 18 months ago. If there's a game on it seems pretty easy to get tickets - and for not much more than the stadium tour. My wife forced me to do the hop on hop off bus thing which was actually ok as its quite a big city. Food and drink great, but you also need to be a bit careful - it gets pretty dodgy if you stray too far from the bright lights - fair bit of crime.

There are lots of them about, but if you're sober enough you can usually tell who they are.

That being said 3 of my mates had phones stolen, one wallet and even a watch of someones wrist!

I didn't see any pickpockets when I was there. If you're stupid enough to go around any city or town with your wallet or phone hanging out your ar$e pocket then you deserve to be robbed. Just have a bit of common sense about you

Just try not to look like a tourist and you should be okay with pick pockets

Gaudi tour is great if you are into architecture or design, bit expensive though.

Not too worried my misses is from Glasgow she can look out for me thanks for the tips lads Gaudi tour sounds great aswell

The Gaudi architecture are well worth exploring, as is his park Güell. The Picasso museum is also superb.
