A friendly welcome and clear instructions before our guide arrived. Optional safety helmets available. The E bikes were easy to use and a fantastic way to see much over the 3 hours. Our guide Pau kept us safe and had an in depth knowledge of the sites and broader historical context. Highly recommend this tour!

    Top 👍👍👍 An absolutely fantastic experience! Everything was perfectly organized — from the friendly and highly professional guide to the stunning views and interesting details I would have never discovered on my own. The whole trip ran smoothly without any delays, and they took great care of every participant. The atmosphere was warm and

    Fun informative Barcelona bike tour!

    Kaiyin_J, Jun 2026
    Our family of 5 really enjoyed this bike tour. It is our first time in Barcelona and during a heat wave too. Despite the hot weather, we enjoyed this fun informative bike tour. Great way to see the major sites in Barcelona. Rodrigo was our guide and we appreciated him taking the time to take pictures of our family at each stop. We did the tour on electric bikes, our youngest is 12 and we all enjoyed the tour. It was informative and fun, thank you Emma and Rodrigo!! I definitely recommend this bike tour especially if it’s your first time in Barcelona.

    Great tour/bad experience

    Rhonda_K, May 2026
    This felt like a bait and switch. I booked a guided tour, upon arriving at the shop I was told by 'Jen' had booked a self guided tour and a guide would be an extra 80 euros. Jen was unfriendly and rude.The viator service rep confirmed that I had booked a guided tour. The tour with Paolo was fabulous! Such a great guide!! At the end of the tour, the employee at the shop 'Jen' was horrible and charged us an additional 60 euros. Even though the tour was great, I would NOT recommend this tour provider.

    Thank you for your honest feedback! We are genuinely sorry that your experience was not as enjoyable as we intended. Our goal is always to provide every guest with outstanding service and a memorable experience. We value your comments and will review them carefully with our team!

    More than just a bike tour

    Rodrigo_T, May 2026
    I expected a fun way to see the city, but the tour ended up giving a much better sense of Barcelona’s history, culture and everyday life. The route was beautiful. It honestly felt like being shown around by someone who cares about the city.

    Best tour of Barcelona

    Masoud_A, May 2026
    This was the best tour of the Barcelona. The guide (Pau) was super friendly, knowledgable and took us to best parts of city. Better than bus tour, as you stop at point of interest and can take nice photo.

    A wonderful experience!

    Erica_W, May 2026
    This was a wonderful e-bike tour experience! The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. She gave us a good orientation to safely navigating the streets of Barcelona on bikes. I have done ebike tours in Lisbon and Mexico City and this was by far the best!

    Strongly recommend!

    Pau_F, May 2026
    It was great! Good a very good view of the main points if the city, the history was very interesting and the route was gorgeous. Janis was a great guide, really cheerfull and helpful.

    Fair Weather Bike Tour😅

    Cheryl_G, May 2026
    1- When your tomorrowemailed and texted that the bike tour is cancelled you will still billed. 2….When it rains, you could still be bill.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Hi Cheryl, We understand that the weather conditions were disappointing on the day of your tour. Although the cancellation request was made outside the standard refund window, we agreed to issue a refund as a goodwill gesture due to the rain. However, refunds through Viator require the guest to submit a cancellation/refund request via the platform before we are able to process it on our side. We communicated this several times and remained ready to approve the refund request once submitted, but unfortunately we never received the request through the system. We always try to be fair and flexible with our guests and would still be happy to assist if you contact us through the booking platform.

    Great way to explore Barcelona in 3 hours

    Jill_S, May 2026
    Great tour all round. Our guide Bau was so knowledgeable and friendly, providing a wealth of information at each stop. Our E-bikes were very comfortable and easy to use. We were also provided with a bottle of water.

    The BEST guided tour that i have ever done. WELL DONE. WE LOVED it. It was so informative and we learned so much about beautiful Barcelona. Our guide went over and above all expectations

    Best bike rental experience in Barcelona!

    Marianthi_P, Apr 2026
    We had a fantastic experience renting hybrid bicycles here! This is actually the second time we’ve rented from this place, and it has been excellent every time. It’s a great way to explore all the main sights of Barcelona at your own pace. The staff are extremely friendly and helped us plan our routes, which made everything easy and enjoyable. The location is also very convenient, right next to Sagrada Família. I highly recommend renting a bike from this place!

    Excellent and...

    10/10 ride! Routed in history, what a FUN experience

    tadrosgm, Apr 2026
    I stumbled upon this gem of a woman-owned small business at the very last minute! Night before, when every other large tour company in the city was sold out. Not only did accommodate us, but to top it off, we got our own private tour. To make things even more impressive, we were running late due to some transportation issues out of our control. One quick phone call was all it took, and they accommodated us without a single complaint. That kind of flexibility and genuine customer care is so rare, and it truly set the tone for the entire experience. The bike tour itself was an absolute adventure, winding through the city, soaking in the sights, and actually learning the rich history behind them. Pao was a wealth of history knowledge (self proclaimed history nerd) and we were thoroughly routed (see what I did there? 😉) in history the entire ride. We also got separated on the busy streets of Barcelona, and our tour guide graciously came to find us on foot. Quite an adventure! This kind of local, passionate, small-business experience is one that big tour companies simply can’t replicate. If you’re looking for something personal, flexible, fun, and genuinely memorable, look no further. 10/10, would recommend to absolutely anyone.

    Excellent trip. Highly recommended

    Nagham_E, Apr 2026
    The guides were lovely and very friendly. The way they spoke about their city showed how passionate they are about what they do. We were able to visit the main places in the city within three hours, and they also gave us some great recommendations, which we visited on our own afterwards. As a family visiting Spain for the first time, having a guide made our trip much easier and more enjoyable, as we were not familiar with the roads or the local rules. Highly recommended!

    Don't book noone was here you'll waste your money

    Paris_M, Apr 2026
    I turned up and no one was here. Very disappointing now I have to walk around instead. Not impressed.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    We’re very sorry for the confusion at the meeting point, and by the time we managed to get in touch, the review had already been posted. We’re glad we were still able to run the tour, and we appreciate that you joined us in the end. It was a pleasure having you, and we’re happy to hear you enjoyed the experience overall. For future guests: we are always available by phone/message before the tour starts and recommend contacting us immediately if there is any difficulty finding the meeting point so we can help right away. Thank you again for joining our Barcelona Bike Tour!

    Absolut highlight of our Barcelona visit

    Katarina_H, Apr 2026
    The bike tour around Barcelona was the absolute highlight of our three‑day visit to the city. I went with my 13‑year‑old daughter, and we chose regular bikes because we felt like getting some exercise. The route was wonderful—mostly flat, easy to navigate, and it took us past all of Barcelona’s major sights. Our guides, Janis and Pau, were fantastic. They shared details about each location in a way that was both informative and genuinely funny. Their energy made the experience even more memorable. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Barcelona!

    One of the Best Bike Tours I’ve taken.

    Aileen_G, Apr 2026
    Wow!!! What an amazing bike tour today in Barcelona. If you ever want to experience a guided tour from a passionate local, please seek out @takeyourwaybarcelona and ask for Janis. 3 hours of fun / exercise and great conversation. Absolutely 11 out of 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Beautiful experience

    Lucie_C, Mar 2026
    This was my second e-bike ride during my visit in Barcelona. The guide was happy to show me the different sites in Barcelona. She was knowledgeable and dedicated to make my tour memorable. If you want a different way of visiting Barcelona and the weather, then this is the way to go.

    Excellent biking in Barcelona

    Paul_R, Mar 2026
    We were considering different bike rental shops and we're glad we chose this one. The e bikes were in excellent condition at a fair price. The staff was very friendly and provided a map with a recommended route to hit several of Barcelona's landmarks within a few hours, and they also offer a guided tour for those that are interested. I definitely recommend this shop and will be coming back.

    An excellent service.

    Our guide Janis is a very friendly lady with a good sense of humour . She showed us all the highlights from La Sagrada Familia to Barceloneta. It was very nice and we had so much fun. Highly recommended !
