5. La Rambla
La Rambla is one of the most famous streets in Barcelona, and luckily for cruise passengers, it’s located within walking distance from the port.
This lively, tree-lined 1.2 km (0.75-mile) pedestrian boulevard connects Plaça de Catalunya with the Christopher Columbus Monument at Port Vell, close the cruise shuttle drop-off point.
The street is packed with souvenir stalls, cafés, street performers, and a mix of locals and tourists.
You’ll also spot several iconic buildings along the way, including Palau Güell, Liceu Theater, Palace of the Virreina, and Teatre Principal.
Don’t miss La Boqueria Market, a must-visit notice with everything from fresh fruit and seafood to cheese and cured meats.
To get to La Rambla from Moll Adossat cruise terminals, you’ll need to accept the cruise shuttle (blue bus), which drops you off right at the WTC terminal, a 10-minute walk from La Rambla. The ride takes 10 minutes.
If your ship docks at the World Trade Center terminals, La Rambla is an easy 10-minute walk (about 650 meters).
🚨 Tip: Be alert for pickpockets, especially in crowded areas. La Rambla is beautiful, but also busy.
