Default Barcelona City Tours Afternoon

We have to stay an extra day in Barcelona as our plane leaves before the
ships docks. Can anyone reccommend a city tour of about 4 hours for the
afternoon.

Just hop on the tour bus that takes you all around the city. You can
get on and off as much as you like in one day.

Without doubt it is to take a walking tour of La Rombla. As one site says:
"La Rambla ... is the most famous street in Barcelona. The wide boulevard
connects the Plaça de Catalunya, a busy square, to the Monument a Colom, a
tall column erected in honor of Christoffel Columbus. The often crowded
street is popular with tourists and locals alike." For more information, go

Forgot to mention that Barcelona is one of my favorite cities in Europe.
Be shure to catch every example of Gaudi's work that you can in the
city. Especially that phonomenal church, Sagrida Familla (sp?).
