It’s the capital of the parties and fun, lovely people, a looot of foreigners and a beautiful beach, if you like clubbing is perfect ! And the food it’s not that amazing but if you find good places you can eat very good, but I think it’s more expensive than Madrid.
Posted: June 27, 2025I felt safe, even at night walking home alone from the beach. You should go see the la sagrada familia. I loved the tacos For my whole trip I have spent 600€ (with Hostel, flight and food as well as clothing)
Posted: June 24, 2025I went to Barcelona for two days by myself, I was very nervous and scared since I had never been there and I was alone, but once I got there i found It very easy to get around and the públic transport very straightforward, and the people were very nice and helpful. I never got Lost, the hostel was in a good place, and the beaches were easy to find
Posted: June 11, 2025Experienced: July, 2023We went there with my friends from Italy, and i joined to guruwalk. Architecture and vintage shops were amazing. Also food was delicious. In Italy, cuisine is very traditional but in Barcelona they combined modern things with tradition. People were more open minded.
Posted: June 4, 2025I went in Barcelona with my friends , in total we were 3. We had a great time and we enjoyed the city a lot! Very beautiful, had a similar feeling to Athens for us ( we are from Athens) but at the same time nothing alike Apart from the weather! We didn’t really feel safe , especially during the night time because we experienced extreme catcalling and even had bunch of guys following us around! The clubbing for me was horrible tho but that’s because I don’t like clubs and it was super crowded since it was August! Our hotel room wasn’t that clean at the end and had mold on the walls but we realised that every boutique apartment was like that as well! As for attractions , I enjoyed Sagrada Familia and casa batllo

This was my first solo travel. I visited important places. I got lost in the streets of Barcelona and it was a great feeling. I recommend you to try La Pepita restaurant, they have very delicious tapas. I ate paella at Colom restaurant, it was delicious. I met my friend Kamola who is a solo traveler from this application and we went to Montjuic together. In short, I had a great time in Barcelona. Of course, I would like to visit Spain again.

It is generally safe, but beware of pickpockets everywhere at all times. They work in public transport and even in the streets (steal phone from bikes). Avoid walking alone at night in shady areas of town.

It's not as bad as sometimes people tell but you need to be cautious especially with your belongings. I recommend you to stay alert if you are walking late in the streets but as you should do in every city.
