    Entertaining and in-depth tour of the best of Barcelona
    Evan_F, May 2024
    Laid-back bicycle tour of Barcelona's hot spots. Lourenco, my tour guide, was astonishingly knowledgeable about the city, and his entertaining delivery style kept everyone engaged. Even if this isn't your first time in the city (it was my second) you'll learn something new.
    A great ride in a lovely city
    Nicols_R, May 2024

    It was a small group of five people (and a baby), was overall a pleasant experience. Anybody who enjoys bicycling will like it to get the taste of Barcelona.
    Excellent bike tour

    Book the tour! Our tour guide Paola was great. She was so funny, nice and knowledgeable. We learned so much and felt like we saw a lot of the best highlights of Spain. This was one of our favorite parts of our Spain trip. We felt we had sufficient time in each location and were allowed pictures and questions at each location.
    Great cycling trip!
    Patricia_R, Apr 2024
    What a great way to see Barcelona on our first day here. Keiran was an excellent guide. Loved cycling through the city. You can really cover some ground! We were lucky with weather and the city is so incredible as far as having bike lanes everywhere.
    Excellent experience
    Viktoriya_L, Apr 2024
    It was very casually paced and covered a lot of main attractions of Barcelona. The tree sp. bikes worked perfectly well and were very comfortable.
    Visit the highlights of Barcelona
    Wade_D, Apr 2024
    What a great tour! We hit all of the major sites for a brief overview of each. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable having grown up in Barcelona. Learning how to navigate the city by bike was useful as well. Highly recommend!!
    Highly recommend this bike tour!
    Darby_H, Apr 2024
    I do not bike and this was so fun. Kieran (sp?) the tour guide was so good at leading us and making sure we were all good and safe. Learned a lot of history which is just what I wanted. Couldn’t believe how many bike lanes exist in Barcelona. I had so much fun and even made friends with another solo biker. Definitely recommend as a must do.
    Lovely bike ride around the city
    Claire_B, Apr 2024

    Carolina was an excellent guide and this was a fab way to see lots of the city’s sights without having to walk for miles and miles!
    Excellent bike tour
    Erika_N, Apr 2024
    The bike tour with Carolina was excellent. The bikes were well maintained and easy to use. The route taken was an easy ride and we saw a lot of places that we may not have visited and were able to return to at a later time.
    Great tour
    Arthur_K, Apr 2024
    Tour guide was really good, very kind and helpful. The tour was great fun and the guide was very knowledgeable
    THE BEST
    Grayson_P, Apr 2024
    Paula was the owner and we felt SO lucky to get her as our guide. The tour was one of our favorite things on our Spain trip. She tailored the trip to see the things we wanted to see and did a great job mixing up history, laughing, and drinking. We got to see the local spots, not just the touristy places too. She was so much fun as we felt like we made a friend. Paula also gave us recommendations for food spots for the rest of our trip and these places have been our favorite! 10/10 I couldn’t say enough good things about this!!!!
    GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!
    LESLIE_H, Mar 2024
    Our tour guide was GREAT!! He was very entertaining and his knowledge of Barcelona was great! We loved tgis tour!
    Highly recommend!
    Heidi_P, Mar 2024
    Wonderful, easy to understand English language tour with a friendly, knowledgeable guide, originally from Donegal who had been doing it for some years. Bikes were multispeed in good working order with a comfortable saddle and easy to ride; route was flat, and pace leisurely. (My watch logged 189ft of climb in just under 9 miles.) After walking over 10 miles the day before it was a fun way to give our feet a rest while still exploring the city further. We got to see numerous attractions that would would not have had time to see on our own walking and taking public transit.
