Excellent tour it’s a must!
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 🤩

Excellent company
Our Driver was wonderful. Our pick up time was 10 AM at the cruise port. The cruise line released us early so I called the company and asked if they were able to pick us up earlier. The driver said give me five minutes and showed up right away. Excellent driver. I highly recommend him and the company.

Outstanding, must do tour!
This is an experience that you should not miss. You really need a knowledgeable guide to understand the significance of the many architectural details. Our guide was passionate about architecture, art and the genius of Gaudi. His was with Barcelona Local Experiences.

Fabulous adventure!
It sounds like a long day …. But it all passes so quickly. Our bus driver was amazing. Very smooth drive. Carlos (our guide) was SUPER knowledgeable and added humor to history. The photos do not do it justice. Wear good walking shoes and expect an absolutely amazing day!

Nice break from the city
Monica was a fantastic guide. We enjoyed seeing a bit of Spain outside of Barcelona. Beaches are lovely, a little too early in the season for us. Only issue was trying to find the bus at the bus station. The signage in the terminal was different than the directions given.

This tour was incredible...
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!!!

Wonderful!
This was by far the best experience I had in Barcelona! What a truly hidden gem this was, the E bike tour was amazing (no crowds, incredible views that most don't see and a brilliant guide). Our guide Marianna was so warm, inviting and kind and super FUN! The e bikes made it easy to climb the huge hills to enjoy the spectacular views. Do this tour— it will be the highlight of your time in Barcelona!

Private Guided tour in Barcelona
Albert was a professional, knowledgeable tour guide. His car is clean and comfortable. He worked with us to accommodate our preferences and timing. We have such a great impression of Barcelona from this tour. We wish he could be our guide in other cities. Very positive!

A great option if you only have one day in Barcelona!
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!

Great driver
The driver was very conscientious. We got off shop early so there was confusion about where to meet her. In the future the driver should be specific about what area to meet, as there are several pick up locations. The driver stayed in contact with us and we finally met up. While driving she pointed out landmarks. Our driver was Nafeesa

Paid to be picked up at...
Paid to be picked up at my hotel. However, in the middle of the night, I received a text message that I would have to walk a short distance to the pick up point. being in Barcelona less than a day, It was difficult to find the pick up point. We were right by an Apple store a department store, but instead they chose a hotel with no recognition.

Viator very unhelpful
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.
