Great tour through the city! Our guide (I think his name was Alex) was great. Our group had 10 people
Thank you for the great review! We're glad Alex made the tour so enjoyable for your group of 10. 😊🚴♂️
Great walk in Barcelona with great explanations from our guide Alexandre, I recommend it if you wish to visit the city in a relaxed and informative way. A must-do when visiting the city. # if you are French, Brazilian, or Portuguese, ask for Alexandre🤪
Merci beaucoup ! Nous sommes ravis qu'Alexandre ait rendu la visite si agréable et instructive. Nous lui transmettrons vos compliments ! 😊🚴♂️
Very disappointed with this e-bike tour. The itinerary we booked was completely changed without any advance notice. The main highlight — the stop at the Sagrada Família — was quietly dropped, and we only found out midway through the tour that we wouldn't be visiting it. If there was a "local situation" preventing the stop, that should have been communicated before the tour started, or better yet, before we booked. On top of that, the tour ran 30 minutes shorter than advertised, and we visited the same destination twice — presumably to fill time after cutting the main stop. What we experienced bore little resemblance to what was described at booking. We contacted Viator about this and still have no resolution. Poor communication, a shortened experience, and no accountability afterward. I can't recommend this tour.
We are truly sorry to hear about your experience. A route change of this significance, especially dropping the Sagrada Família stop, should have been communicated clearly before the tour began. A shortened tour visiting the same destination twice is not the standard we hold ourselves to, and we understand your frustration. We are looking into this and take your feedback very seriously. 😔
The guide was extremely knowledgeable. It was a great way for our family to experience Barcelona! We were given lots of ideas of what to go back and explore on our own.
Thank you for the lovely review! We’re happy the guide’s knowledge helped your family discover Barcelona and gave you ideas for the rest of your trip. 🚴♂️😊

We were on the road with Ruslan and it was the best e-bike tour we ever had ☺️ Ruslan went to great trouble and showed us corners of Barcelona that we would never have seen .
Vielen Dank für Ihr tolles Feedback! Schön, dass Ruslan die Tour so besonders gemacht und Ihnen neue, unbekannte Ecken von Barcelona gezeigt hat. ☺️🚴♂️✨
