Barcelona Small Group Tour with Local Guide on Bike or E-Bike

Glenda_R, Jul 2026

Must try this walking wine and tapas tour

Our guide Dasha was knowledge, charismatic, and shared her love of country, community, and family with us. She walked us through beautiful parts of Barcelona and we visited 4 amazing local restaurants we would not have found on our own. We tasted traditional drinks and tapas that were incredible. I would most definitely recommend this experience to anyone. My partner had the vegetarian options and enjoyed the experience just as much as I did (I chose the no dietary restrictions).

Tarragona and Sitges Tour with Small Group and Hotel Pick Up

Patricia_D, Jul 2026

Tarragona and Sitges

Tarragona was my favorite!!! What a beautiful town with amazing history and warm, bright energy. Sitges and the old church at the seaside beautiful also. Our tour guide Diego was so positive, passionate to teach us about each place that we stopped. I would definitely recommend this tour ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Park Güell Skip-the-Line Guided Tour Barcelona

Mindy_C, Jul 2026

Amazing in Barcelona

Steven Rodriguez, our tour guide, did an amazing job guiding our group through this amazing park. His knowledge and experience shined through as he shared the meaning of the art in the park. Steven had a great way of sharing facts while eliciting group participation, using some humor along the way. It was a memorable experience!

Raymond_H, Jun 2026

Wonderful day

There is a little open water paddling, but most of the time it is against beautiful cliffs. There are caves and coves to explore. It was a very good experience. Our guide Gerard was very friendly and helpful. They get you back in town with about an hour and a half. We choose to enjoy a drink.

Park Guell and Sagrada Familia Private Tour with Hotel pick-up

Steven_B, Jun 2026

An amazing day full of joy

Our guide, Juris, was a treasure. I am delayed in entering this review -- our tour occurred in late April. Juris was very thoughtful and full of information. He shared his city including driving and walking tour treats. The arrangements for entry tickets were flawless and comfortable time was allowed for lunch and shops. We would definitely book again with Juris and recommend this tour to friends and family. Thank you very much for a wonderful experience.

Highlights & Hidden Spots of Barcelona Bike Tour w/ Local Guide

Brendan_C, May 2026

Great gentle bike ride, don't get the e-bike

Fantastic tour with a fun guide who knew how to keep things light while giving good details. Gave a good down to earth feeling of what parts of the city feel like. The route is pretty flat and if you're of average shape you should be easily able to do it on a normal bike (as I did). An e-bike will obviously make the effort required close to nothing.

Combo: Skip the Line Sagrada Familia & Park Guell Guided Tour

Michelle_S, May 2026

Amazing tour!

The tour was great! Amazing tour guide Olga E. She was great with my 19 month old and made seeing La Sagrada Família an unforgettable experience. It was the perfect length for our toddler. We did the split tour and it went well cabs are available close by to transfer from the park to the church. Thank you!

Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier

loweam, May 2026

Fantastic Food and Wines

Guide was fabulous. It wound up being only 4 of us and the places she chose were outstanding. The food and wince choices were top notch and was definitely the best tour we took in Barcelona. I would recommend doing this tour the first night or 2 in Barcelona as we would have wanted to go back to some of the restaurants for dinner. Only feedback I have is to change the meeting point directions to 1 Rda de Sant Paul vice 11. Once I GPS “Stay Together Barcelona Apartments”, I had no trouble finding her.

2 hour Shared Sailing Tour in Barcelona with Open Bar & Snacks

Rudy_v, May 2026

Easy sailing with a small group

Trip couldn’t have been much better, Edu was awesome (our skipper). We were taken care of with plenty of snacks and drinks throughout the day and learned so much about Barcelona and her history. Highly recommend this charter. 2 hours was the perfect amount of time for us.

Barcelona Private Sailing Cruise with Open Bar & Snacks

Laura_F, Apr 2026

Well worth the upgrade to have a private boat trip rather than a group

We booked a private sailing rather than the group one and I’m so glad we did. If there were 8 people (from different groups) on the boat it would have felt too cramped but having it to ourselves felt great. There were plenty of drinks options and the snacks were great, and as we are both gluten free our diets were catered for.

Barcelona Sunset Cruise with Light Snacks and Open Bar

Mark_H, Oct 2025

Perfect ending to a Barcelona trip

Absolutely wonderful way to spend a final evening on Barcelona. The girls hosting / skippering were great fun and excellent hosts. They did the best they could with the very average weather on the day, so we weren’t able to go into the ocean, instead cruising gracefully around the harbour, which was perfect. Thoroughly recommended.
