Barcelona in July. school me plz
I'm off to Barcelona for 10 days.
4 days in Air bnb for the first time and then I have no idea if I should go to another town or not. Anyone been to Spain?
Sitges & Girona are like 100km away form Barcelona which makes it legit and close by so my gf and I can just bus it there and stay for 3 days until I go back to Barcelona.
ANy tips?
Thanks!

Go to Madrid too. High speed train gets you there in a couple hours. 5 days in each city + daytrips to nearby towns like Segovia, Toledo and the two you mentioned above.

4 days in barca is all you need
do an open bus hop on/hop off tour to see all the major sites
eat lots of tapas
go along the coast a couple of hours east / west (along coast) from barca, loads of beautiful areas around.
i'd also visit madrid and maybe the basque region to the north if you have time
i LOVE barcalona
