Use another bike company. Terrible experience. Canceled on us with ZERO notice. No call. No text. No email. We found out after waiting at the meeting point for over 20 minutes and calling Viator customer service that this tour company canceled on us and forgot to notify me. Unprofessional and unacceptable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our bike tour of Barcelona! Leonardo was a fabulous guide- friendly, knowledgeable, and wonderful with our daughters. He gave us a lot of information about the history of the area. The majority of the ride was on bike paths, so we felt very safe. I highly recommend this to families or anyone wanting an insider view of Barcelona!

If you're looking for an engaging and insightful way to experience the magic of Barcelona, look no further than this bicycle tour! From the moment we set off, it was clear this was going to be a special experience, and it absolutely delivered.
Our guide, Leo (one of the partners, which speaks volumes!), was truly exceptional. His knowledge of Barcelona and Catalunya was impressive, spanning everything from the breathtaking architecture to the rich history and even the current political landscape. He brought each site we visited to life with fascinating details and stories, making the city feel vibrant and understandable.
Beyond Leo's expertise, the tour itself was perfectly paced. – definitely not a strenuous workout! It was easy to keep up with the group, allowing me to truly soak in the surroundings without feeling rushed or out of breath. The small group size was a huge bonus, fostering a more intimate and interactive experience.
One of the things I appreciated most was the ample time we had at each stop to take photos. Barcelona is a visually stunning city, and Leo ensured we had plenty of opportunities to capture those perfect vantage points. I came away with some incredible memories and pictures to match!
You absolutely can't go wrong booking this tour with Leo – it was a highlight of my trip!

Dear William, taking your tour was a phenomenal experience. I don't know if you gave the tour to me or I gave it to you. It was spectacular to hear your stories about living in Barcelona in the 1960s. We were very lucky to hear that gentleman's wonderful story outside the Sagrada Familia. I've expanded my knowledge since then, researching more about what he told us. I'm so glad you enjoyed the tour, the information, and that you're coming back with fond memories. It was a memorable tour, and I'll remember it for a long time. I'm so grateful for trusting our services and for this detailed review! Best regards and a hug, Leo.

It was smooth & easy. Saw lots of great sites. No entry, just ideas of where to go back to: la Sagrada Familia, Gothic quarter, Arc de triumph, water front (olympic area). Great overview and our guide Karolina was the BEST. Very patient & knowledgeable about Barcelona. Only negative was Viators meeting instructions need to be more specific/ sending us to a crowded square was not helpful. But I contacted Viator and sent a photo & Karolina found us!

We had a great bike tour, Lorenzo our guide knows his history of the city and brought it to life with his animated storytelling. The pace of the bike ride was good and the bikes comfortable. We would highly recommend it, to get a good overview of the whole city if you have limited time while you're here
Response from Host, Oct 2024
thank Ajay I hope you also enjoyed the fotball match in the evening !
Graham_D, Aug 2024
Very good time with Leo who helped us get the layout of the city on the first day of our visit. He was really friendly and very well informed - complemented by various pictures to show us how places have changed over the years. Be nice to him and he’ll share his restaurant recommendations !
