Barcelona shifts by season — and so should your HOHO tactics.

Summer

  • Sit shaded top-deck seats.
  • Hydrate and split rides into shorter segments.

Winter

  • Capture low-angle light for photos.
  • Bring warm layers for evening.

Festival Weeks

  • Extra crowds; start earlier.
  • Pre-book attractions.

Tip: Check public holidays for modified frequencies.


Bottom Line

Season-aware tweaks make HOHO more comfortable and photogenic.
