No Guide, No Call, No Tour: Just a complete NO SHOW at the Barcelona Airport

DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS GUIDE: They did not show up and ruined our limited layover time in Barcelona. We booked a half-day tour with pickup and drop off at the Barcelona airport. The guide failed to respond to our message or communicate with us in any way prior to the tour. On the day of our arrival, the guide never showed up at the Barcelona airport meeting point, and they were unreachable by phone. Even Viator support was unable to contact them. As a result, we were stranded and wasted our limited layover time in Barcelona at the airport. Do not risk your travel plans with this unreliable guide.

Jorge was the best!

We had only a few hours to see Barcelona, since it was a quick stop in our cruise, but Jorge is an expert and he made sure we saw the best places. He is very knowledgeable and mapped out the best route. We ended up having tapas in a local hole in the wall spot here recommended that was Amazing!! 10/10

Wonderful relaxing way to see Barcelona

This was our first private tour and we’ll definitely be doing it again. We had a five hour layover from when our cruise ship docked in Barcelona and when our flight was scheduled to leave. We thought about just hanging out at the airport, but it seemed a shame to miss out on spending some time in Barcelona. We found the half-day tour on Viator and decided to give it a try. Bibiana from LIMOSLAND greeted us just as we exited the cruise terminal. What a nice feeling not having to get in line for a taxi. Her Mercedes was immaculate and very comfortable. She’s also an excellent driver. We wound our way through Barcelona stopping at the sights we wanted to see. My wife and I also wanted to relax with a coffee at an outdoor cafe and Bibiana took us to a very nice local place. Getting a custom tour from a local guide was very nice. Bibiana’s English was excellent. She was also willing to let us practice our Spanish and gave us some insights about the differences between Spanish and Catalan. She is just a really nice person. I highly recommend Bibiana and LIMOSLAND!

Awesome tour.

Our driver Hassan was wonderful. He arrived on time to the airport. He was very courteous and personable. I had no itinerary and he showed us all around Barcelona. He was very friendly and took us to the cruise port safely and on time. I would definitely recommend.
