Staying Safe in Barcelona

Barcelona has a reputation for being a safe destination, although pickpocketing is relatively common. We've put together a list of six safety tips for hens looking to stay safe in Barcelona:

1

With pickpocketing being common (particularly in tourist hotspots like Las Ramblas), make sure that your valuables are tucked away safely out of reach

2

Set up a group chat for the hen and put your accommodation address in it so you've all got easy access to it

3

Take care not to put your drinks down to reduce the risk of spiking

4

Keep to the main areas of Barcelona rather than straying into unknown and potentially dangerous neighbourhoods

5

Keep to lit areas and stay away from parks at night time

6

Walk in groups, or at least twos - safety in numbers!

By following these simple safety tips, we're sure you'll have a brill Barcelona hen do.
