Why this route

This is the route for anyone with a single day who wants to go inside the two big monuments. You need two timed tickets: buy the Sagrada Família first (the hardest) and fit Park Güell after it.

Barceloneta at the end is the place for lunch or dinner: make the stop longer and the driver waits.
