Our booking was very spontaneous and at the last minute. Our skipper and host accommodated our every need. What a beautiful surprise for a afternoon cruise. Our skipper was very professional and our host was very fun and made you feel at home. A beautiful short tour of the local coast and a circle out to take a stop for a dip if your up for it. The best 2 hours for a afternoon in Barcelona! Highly recommended.
Amazing cruise with delicious tapas, cava, wine, and a beautiful sunset. Ivy and Andie are an excellent team and highly qualified captain and first mate! Really delightful and highly recommended.
Me and 5 other people wanted to book this but as soon as I paid the tickets ran out for everybody else. I called tripadvisor and was told the hosts were not answering the phone, so I went to the location at the marina and waited 1hr and 30 mins to speak to the hosts in person. When they came back i spoke with the female host and she was very apologetic and kind and gave her boss my phone number, promising that I would be contacted and given a refund. No such thing happened whatsoever, I wasted €65 and was never contacted for anything and they never answered the phone again.
Hello - Sorry to hear this but it sounds like you booked through Trip Adviser which is Viator, they are the ones you paid and it is normally easy to get a refund via them. We would not of been paid for any sailing trip not done. But please just send us details and we will be able to easily sort, email is info@barcelonawatersports.es and please give name and date of trip
We had a wonderful time with Captain Colin! I was anxious about this excursion from reading some of the previous reviews but we had a fantastic time! Cava was flowing and a great selection of tapas along with great views of the city and information about Barcelona. Would recommend!
My friends and I had a great time on the boat, the guides were very accommodating and provided great appetizers and drinks as listed!
We had so much fun on this sailboat excursion with an incredible host and amazing captain! The tapas were delicious, and the atmosphere was fantastic. Any day is perfect for drinks in the sun on a boat, especially a Sunday! I highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a memorable experience on the water.
The crew was great - friendly and fun, but also clearly very experienced sailors. Kids loved swimming while the adults relaxed and enjoyed the views. A wonderful sunset sail!
This was the worst experience. We planned this for our last evening in Barcelona. My granddaughter was so excited. We planned our day around this event. Went to the beach arrived on time. And the cruise company never showed. We waited. Watched four other groups leave called and viator let this paid reservation slip through the cracks. They had no one to send out to captain the boat and we never went on our cruise. Very disappointing. They offered to take us out the next morning. But we were leaving and not a sunset cruise.
We apologised and explained we never received your reservation through the Viator booking system ,so we were not aware of your trip. We spoke to you at the time and explained this and you were very understanding and we spoke to Viator to refund you straight away But you booked through Viator so really harsh on us
skipper was excellent boat ok no music warm beverages and small sitting area needs improvement i wouldn’t do it again
Sorry to hear about the warm drinks, there is a super large fridge onboard so that should have not happened. You were on a Bavaria 46 with just the 2 of you so you ended up with a private trip with no extra cost so I am surprised about the other comments as that is a big boat for 2 people. We have added a music speaker system to this boat on your comments
Slow and easy, we were able to see the shoreline, relax with some wine and snacks and then catch the beautiful sunset! Faith and Matt were excellent hosts and made the trip fun!
