Barcelona Art & Culture App Reviews

We used this app last year for our first visit and it really worked. When we returned home and looked at some of the restaurants we used the reviews matched our experience. The maps look better in the new version but could be improved. Overall this city app was the best of our of trip. Well done keep us the good work!

Great app for the visitor interested in more than the obvious stuff, lots of insights. It's easy to use, beautifully and intelligently written, full of interesting detail, bars and tapa bars and restaurant listings are all up to date and reliable…great pics, adds so much to the visit.. never realized there was so much to see in Barcelona… looked at some other apps but seemed thin in comparison. The updates make it even better!

Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls are hands-down the best travel writers I have come across. Their Cadogan guides have helped us across Europe for many years and I am very happy to see that they are now putting their great talents to work on a mobile app. Their content and insights make this app a priceless companion when visiting Barcelona. The redesigned version of this app just made the whole experience even better. Kudos.

This is a fabulous app and easy to use. We were in Barcelona only a few days and able to narrow our tourist list to what we really wanted to see. The scroll bar allows for key area of interest. The restaurants we tried were spot on. I've used travel guides by Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls over the years and they never disappoint!

No other Barcelona guide comes close, especially if you're going to be offline. If you go to BCN, get this app.

Easy to use. Works well for my 3 day trip. A bit slow on iPhone 4S.

I never thought an app could replace a good book, but this one proves me wrong. The incredibly detailed city map, zoomable down to intersection level is loaded with reference icons. The articles range from overviews to individual attractions to walks, all written in an entertaining, witty and obviously deeply knowledgeable style. This one can be the replacement for all that paper!

If you're going to Barcelona, buy this app!! Mike Pauls and Dana Facaros are the best travel writers out there- not only hugely knowledgeable, smart and witty, but fun just to read while killing time in the airport, in your hotel room or on the metro etc– their Cadogan guides are great (I have over a dozen of them) and this app is like their books...only more fun because there are thousands of great pix! Food entries spot on, too, and loved the bit on Catalan music. Just got the new update.

This is a must for anyone planning a trip to Barcelona. Chalked full of history, practical information and resources I would highly recommend getting this App. Its worth every cent! Each section is broken into subsections and those subsections have all the info, phone numbers and contact information for each subject. There weren’t as many pictures as I was initially expecting however, this app allowed me to actually navigate my way while in Barcelona and made planning my trip easy and fun! Thoug

I appreciate the way these authors maintain this info. They've never let me down. Thx.

This app would be great because I can tell it has a lot of good information on it, but it is pretty much unusable because it freezes and crashes very frequently on both my iPhone 4S and my iPad (most recent model). Very disappointing for an app that is $5
