This office is the main tourist board office in Barcelona and can help you with many essentials e.g. finding accommodation, booking the bus turistic (open air bus tour), city maps, bus and transport information and other general tourist information questions.

This Barcelona tourist info office also has a gift shop with an extensive range of quality souvenirs for your visit to Barcelona.

Note: Tourists often have difficulties finding the Catalunya tourist office - even though it's the biggest tourist office in Barcelona and it's on the busiest square in Barcelona. Why? Because it's actually underground! The way to find it is first to find the El Cortes Ingles (the large shopping complex) the tourist office is close but actually under the Catalunya Square near the fountain. Look for the large pillars with an " I " at the top. These pillars are just outside the tourist office. There are two entrances to the Barcelona tourist office - each pillar marks an entrance.
