Advice needed for Spain

Hello, I’m planning to visit Spain for a week in late March with my family.

We are interested in staying in Barcelona. As a Messi and Barcelona fan, I might visit Camp Nou. I would love to do some biking while I’m there, maybe for a day or two.

Can anyone suggest a good company, area, or both for biking in Barcelona? Also, are there any other must-visit places near Barcelona?

I appreciate any advice. TIA

I love the Sagrada Familia but buy your tickets before you go to avoid the queues. The shipbuilding museum was also memorable.

The old town in Girona, an hour or so North of Barcelona, is also worth a visit if you have the time.

Parc Guell

and the other Gaudi buildings in the town.

Joan Miro Foundation if you appreciate modern art

Claudio Montefusco organises some road cycling in and around Barcelona. Bikes are good quality branded road ones and as a result costs are not low. https://roadcycling.barcelona/guided-cycling-tours-barcelona/the-hills-around-the-city-of-barcelona/ for example.

Let him know Mike sent you!

Owo Sagrada Familia looks like an interesting place. I'd definitely visit there.

I was checking online for agencies and guides, and I came across https://gowithguide.com/spain. Does anyone have any idea about them? They looked good to me. Any advice or any alternative that you used for your travel plans?
