Barcelona 3-hour Bike or E-Bike Tour: Highlights and Hidden Gems
Description
A fun, laid-back bike tour that gives you a great overview of Barcelona’s amazing architecture, history and street culture. Through your local guide, you will experience Barcelona from its beaches to its back streets, monumental buildings to its bodegas, and from its Roman ruins to its romantic hideaways. The Barcelona Bike tour is the best way to see this fabulous city. The tour takes approximately 3 hours, the bikes are comfortable and easy to ride, even for inexperienced cyclists who don’t know a handlebar from a tapas bar. Groups are small (max 10 per group) so it’s friendly and intimate, there’s time to talk, take photos and enjoy all the amazing sights. This is a great activity for families, as the tour is suitable for all ages. Child seats are available. Safety first: we use 90% bike lanes and pedestrianised streets.

We had a great trip, and our guide was excellent.
Great way to see the sights with a friendly guide
Great guide, very knowledgeable, comfy easy to ride bikes. Perfect day out
Vincent was an excellent guide! We saw so much of the city on this half day tour. Highly recommend!
Amazing tour. We loved it. Thank you
Guide was good. Easy riding on ebike. Went to plenty of places. Good value for the money. Bikes were good.
Misha was our guide. He did a great time of ensuring our safety with the navigation of the bike lanes and alleys. Misha explained the history of the stops in just the right amount of detail. There is a lot to Barcelona and this is a great way to see some of those things outside the Gothic area. The stops were all good to see. While the Sagrada Família is a visual wonder with a complex story, the nice surprises for me was the park that was once the Citadel, a French fort and the ride along the beach to close out the ride. Highly recommend this tour!
Biking Barcelona Lovely way to explore and enjoy the parts of Barcelona that other tours cannot meet Spent a great afternoon with Leo my tour guide full of local knowledge and history
Misha was welcoming and friendly. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. We really enjoyed the tour. Highly recommended.
You’re gonna be fried at the end of this tour but still worthy. I will definitely do this again when I come back or whenever I visit other cities.
