Top Barcelona Shore Excursions

The history of Old Town by a short walk thru the streets walked by famous citizens of the past and their life was so informative with Tatiana. We then saw the outside of Gaudi House and La Familia Sagrada with Tatiana pointing out interesting design elements. Pick Up at cruise terminal and drop off at hotels made this so seamless!!! We highly recommend this tour!!!

Be sure to be on time exactly the time they give you to meet up after each free time as the time for meet up is the time they head out to either the boat or back to the bus no room for being just a minute or two late, Very friendly knowledgeable folks. And very helpful as well. I only mention the above because most tour groups when they say meet back at a certain time ,you still hang around for a little while while the group gets organized, however this group the meeting time they give you means the time they are taking off and if you’re not there, you will be left behind. As they have a very tight schedule for boat and bus time with all the other tour groups being in line waiting their turn.

We were met on time exactly where we were advised There were no tickets to buy, however Viator still had tickets. Our guide Miguel was amazing Made us laugh throughout. Spoke so many languages and then used all the windows in the cathedral to show us how everyone and every religion can come together He was so knowledgeable about every area in the cathedral 🤩

This tour was amazing, and we were so fortunate to be led by Miro. He had a wealth of information and to share and always gave time for questions and enough time to pause and enjoy the experience. Montserrat is beautiful and can be described but, needs to be seen to be fully understood. The winery tour was the most informative winery tour that I have ever experienced. I learned so many new things about the process, and how Oller del Mas differs from others.

This tour was incredible - what a fun way to see Barcelona! It was a very efficient and safe tour of the city’s main sights with great information and history provided along the way. We felt like we were famous with lots of people waving and taking photos of us! Would highly recommend!!!

This was my husband’s and my favorite stop on our cruise. The tour was very comprehensive and our guide, Sergio, was knowledgeable, funny, and made sure we had a safe way back to our ship on time. I didn’t know much about Gaudi’s work coming into Barcelona and I left with a great appreciation for what he was able to accomplish. Barcelona is beautiful and vast, and I felt like we got to see a lot with what little time we had there. I was a little apprehensive about doing a tour outside of the cruise line, but this was very well organized and a better option than what my cruise offered here. Thank you Sergio!

The tour we booked with Viator was for a private tour that included La Sagrada Familia and Guell Park in Barcelona. I booked it on September 19, 2024 for a visit on July 12, 2025. About two weeks before the trip, I called to confirm that everything was in place. We had a trip for 12 people planned. The girl I spoke with said it had been booked incorrectly. It was not a private tour, but she would change it. Unfortunately, at this later date, it was very difficult to get tickets for La Sagrado Familia. This was unknown to us until I received an email stating that the time we were supposed to go was unavailable, and there were just a few tickets left for a visit to Sagrada Familia. Apparently the girl who rebooked it had no idea what was going on with these private tickets. In addition, we were supposed to have visited Parque Guell and there were no tickets available for that. I called again two days later because I had gotten no response back when I realized that that we were not going to be able to see the things that we had planned to see. The girl, I spoke to that time, took my name and a phone number and gave me an exact time that somebody in an higher office would be calling me back. I was told three different times that people would call me back from Viator. I never received a single phone call. The way that I was able to sort this out was by working directly with the tour operator in Barcelona. He was wonderful and had contacted me by email so we were able to speak and re-plan this tour, but Viator never knew that they redid the tour. We never got any tickets for Parque Guell We also had to change the times of the tour, which was difficult with 12 people coming in from all all around the country. So I would like to give recognition to Ramiro Cabellero, who runs the local tour company. But I would give Viator a 0 on their customer service. We paid for things we never got for 12 people but worse than that was being told they were helping me and not once did anyone call me back. We have used Viator in the past, but certainly do not plan to do that again. I also think money should have been refunded for tickets we never received.

Edwin was an amazing tour guide; he shared the history really well and kept everyone safe and sound throughout the bike ride. I also appreciated that he catered the trip to the group's interests and engaged with everyone. It was also great to be able to stop and take in the different sights we were seeing. For my first bike tour, this was a great experience. Additionally, I appreciated that the company was prepared for all types of weather and provided options for changing our dates based on what would work for us.
