I'm going to Barcelona in March and was wondering if You have to book a tour at the Nou Camp in advance? What else is there to do? I'm going with Uni so we haven't got much time to spend in the city as we look at rocks and stuff so what are the best things to do and see? Cheers.

Not sure about a stadium tour mate
However, if there is a game on while you are there - getting tickets is a doddle
Almost every hotel has them, or you can get them for around 42 euros (last time I went) from the ground right up to kick off (unless its Real Madrid of course)
There is a fabulous casino down by the canals, and watch out for them yellow taxis (theyre lethal)

You can go on a tour without booking, 3 or four a day i think. I got there after the last one had already started on the day that I was there though. Oh well. (This was over a year ago, don't know if it has changed)

To echo what Batfink says, you don't have to book for a tour.
I think there are three or four packages that include various elements to the tour, pictures, merch etc for a price.
It's fairly busy all day every day.
However, the Olympic Stadium on Montjuic, home to Espanyol, is free to enter.

fantastic place bayern, be prepared to spend some money though, i went in october and food and drink was well expensive, some back street tapas bars are'nt too bad though. quite a lot to see aswell, would recommend the gaudi designed cathedral, and the gaudi gardens are well smart (if you're into that kind of stuff). if you want the all night bars / clubs would suggest the olimpica area near the beach, got absoultley shit faced in an irish bar down there. plenty of pickpockets and prossies about down the las rambles.

you can get mugged by a bunch of gypsies have your briefcase, laptop, mobile, wallet, passport stolen from a taxi at traffic lights you can get your face smashed in by a load of ghanian drug dealers and you can generally get fucked over mornin, noon and night, all within about a 5 minute radius of Las Ramblas.
not a huge fan of barca
