The guide for the bike tour was fabulous....very knowledgeable. The route of the tour gave great views of Barcelona, and found some spots we wouldn't have otherwise seen. My teenage boys loved the bikes, but I found them a little tricky to ride, probably because of my short stature of 150cm.
Our tour took only 1/12 hours because it was only the two of us plus the guide, i didn’t appreciate the fact that he rushed us through the whole time, because it was too hot for him; so we couldn’t really take nice pictures, he took two pictures of us and they look awful,
Do this tour on your first full day in Barcelona. Daniel was our guide and he was fantastic. He was very attentive, knowable about Barcelona history and made sure everyone had a great time. This tour will take you through the key parts of Barcelona which will help you plan future exploring. We did this tour on our third day and regretted not having done it sooner. Don’t forget to wear sunscreen :-)
Thank you for the great tip and kind words about Daniel! We're so glad he made the tour so informative and enjoyable — and don't worry, we'll pass on the sunscreen reminder too! 😊🚴♂️
It was so fun to ride the E bikes and our guide, Alex, was very informative and make sure we were all safe; we never felt intimidated by the traffic-there were bike lanes in the center of all the major streets. It was amazing to see the Olympic pools where the 1992 games were held and we loved riding all the way up to Montjuic Castle…. our family of four (2 teens) saw so much of the city in three hours and learned a great deal about history. I recommend doing the early morning tour this time of year as it gets hot. Thank you Alex!
Thank you for this amazing review, Alex will be so happy to read this! Riding up to Montjuïc Castle and seeing the 1992 Olympic pools are truly special highlights. Great tip about the early morning tour too! 😊🚴♂️
Or guide, although young, was quite knowledgeable as well as multilingual: Catalonia, English, Spanish + The E-bikes were heavy but powerful, making uphill portions of the ride easy. A great way to see a large portion of the central area and many scenic locations.
Thank you for your detailed feedback! Great to hear the e-bikes made the uphill sections a breeze, and that our guide's knowledge and languages added to the experience. 😊🚴♂️

Great guide, fun experience—guide was very knowledgeable. I would’ve enjoyed the tour without kids along.

The original trip planned to ride to Montjuïc was cancelled last minute, however the shop was readily available to include us into another city tour. Alex was our guide and was very knowledgeable about the history of the city and culture. He was also very good at negotiating through the streets and got a very good overview of the major sites all enjoyed via electric bicycles. Save your legs, ride a bike. We definitely recommend the tour.
Thank you for the great review! We’re glad the team could accommodate you on another tour and that Alex made it informative and smooth through the city. Happy to hear you enjoyed the e-bikes and the overview of the main sights. 🚴♂️😊
