 The Bus Turístic service is
one way to explore BCN by seamandrew
Oh yes, you can buy your tickets on the bus or at the information center at Plaça de Catalunya. They have some way of reserving/buying your tickets online but I would just go to either Plaça de Catalunya or get it on the bus. You have to pay in cash on the bus though. Leave a Comment

 Take the tour by scottishvisitor
The buses are very frequent - if you can't get a seat up top if the bus is very busy just wait for the next one = you won't have to wait long but you will be rewarded in the beautiful pictures you can capture by bus = a great way to see a new city.
You can use your day ticket on either bus = red or green
A convenient easy way to see the attractions. Leave a Comment

There are 2 routes which cover the main highlights of the city, but this is not a guided tour... they just take you to the places and give you a guide. It's a transportation (you can't ask for a guided tour in this price)
You can get on and off the bus as many times as you want at any of the stops.
Prices:
15 € (Adult 1 day)
19 € (Adult 2 Consecutive days)
You can buy the tickets on the bus or in any Tourist Office. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

I highly recommend this tour because it gives a very nice perspective of Barcelona and its lovely buildings and roads, with no effort you can sit on the top floor and listen to a guide in the headphones telling you interesting things about the things you see and pas by. Leave a Comment

 Bus Turistic Ticket by CandS
I wouldn't recommend getting these tickets to anyone unless they have a lot of time and know exactly what they want to see. We only had a short time in Barcelona so we didn't have time to wait for buses or to sit on the bus for so long. Even in October the buses were fairly full and it was hard to get a seat on the top deck. But, it was nicer to see the city from the bus than to go on the metro like we had in other cities.

Me and my wife thought that the best way to get around was by Metro, or by Barcelona Card (valid ticket to all public transportations that can be bought to 1 or 2 days) but in fact we realized very quicly that the best way is to buy the Bus Turistic ticket. This touristic buses are diferent from many other cities in the way that you can leave at any stop and step up again on the next one (they pass in any stop every 6 minutes!!). Its kind of having public tranportation just for tourism! As you can imagine, the bus gets around all of Barcelona interesting points and we almoust didnt need to went anywhere by other kind of transportation. You can by a 2 days ticket for 20 euros and get to listen all the explanations by headphones on every city point..! Theme: Bus

I bought my tickets for this bus on line and picked them up at the airport. They cost about $40 each for a two day ticket but they were well worth it.
NOTE: The days go from morning to night - they do not start at noon and then go to the next day at noon.
When we got in from the airport my grandson said it wasn't cold and we wouldn't need our coats. We did the whole blue loop aside from the last two stops when I said we should go downstairs - my teeth were chattering and besides if we weren't downstairs I wouldn't be able to get down the steps in time to get off.
The next day, which was Saturday, we set off to do the red route. The lines for the buses were EXTREMELY long, and I got impatient. So I walked across to the taxi line and got in a cab to the first stop I wanted to see which was the Sagrada Familia church by Gaudia. When we finished there, the buses were still quite crowded and the first one we got on had no seats on the open top deck. So we rode on the first level for one stop, and then went up to the top. We rode all the way around to the Av. Diagonal transfer point for the blue bus and got off. We missed two short sections of the red route where the blue route did not parallel it.
We got on a blue bus. We sat downstairs, because we'd been up in the outside on the previous day. We rode the blue bus down to the water front area where we got off and had lunch and went to the aquarium. Then we got back on the blue bus (sitting on the first floor again) and got off at the green transfer point.
The green route is really short, and we transferred back to the blue bus without doing the complete green route, but there was only the short section between the two transfer points that we missed. Some of the buses stop running at 1900 and some stop at 2000, and I didn't want to be out somewhere when they stopped. I think we've done the whole blue route, and some of it twice.
