Itinerary

Palau Moja
10 min

Start your tour at the famous Ramblas, the heart of the city centre.

Mercat de la Boqueria
10 min

Enjoy this walking tour of the Old Town and visit the famous Boqueria Market, considered one of the best markets in the world because of its modernist design and the richness of products it offers.

Las Ramblas
10 min

Enjoy a walk along the must-visit Las Ramblas, probably the most famous avenue of the city, home to many bars, restaurants and shops.

Palau Guell
10 min

At the beginning of the century, the high class of Barcelona wanted to live in the city centre. The most remarkable example of this desire is the Palau Guell, the house of the same Guell family that founded the construction of the Park Guell and the major patron of Gaudi’s work. Have a look at the facade of this private house, where a young Gaudi shows already all his talent to master the light and create beautiful shapes even with very limited space.

Cat, Fernando Botero
10 min

Continue your walking tour to discover the Raval, the most multicultural and off the beaten path district of the Old Town, that attracts people from diverse social, cultural and geographical backgrounds. Visit the Rambla del Raval to take a picture with the enormous Cat Statue by Fernando Botero, probably the cutest statue you will ever see.

Admission included20 min

Take the Montjuic funicular and get ready for the best views of Barcelona from the top. Enjoy the breathtaking views from the Montjuic Cable Car and wonderful views of Barcelona’s iconic skyline.

Montjuic Castle
Admission included60 min

Reach the Montjuic Castle to enjoy a private visit allowed only to our small group. The Montjuic Castle has been a military fortress since its early beginning, witnessing the change of political power in the city.

Parc de Montjuic
30 min

Arise from the dungeons to the sky to admire a bird’s eye view of Barcelona and its surroundings. The best way to admire Barcelona in all its beauty is from high above the city. This is where Barcelona reveals itself in total splendor. With our exclusive visit, you will have access to the Tower of the Castle, where you can admire a 360ª views over Barcelona and, if the day is bright and clear, up to the Pyrenees.

El Molino
20 min

Return to the Old Town by Cable Car: relax and enjoy the ride. Your tour ends in a very good area for some local tapas. Ask your guide for the best spots to visit.

Wonderful Evening in Barcelona!

Montse is the most fantastic guide we've ever had on Viator, or any cruise ship excursion period! She explained things easily for us. She adapted some things to accommodate our needs too. Very informative and personal with us. You should have more guides like her!!

Monjuic

Our guide was a little scattered and said the same things over snd over, got caught up on details unrelated go our tour, asked same questions multiple times. I would suggest doing this on your own. Take Funicular, then cable car up. Once there, it’s full of great information.

Best spots on a tight schedule

Pepa is friendly and approachable. In addition, to being quite knowledgeable. If you have only few hours in Barcelona then go ahead and book with Pepa. I would highly recommend her tour.

Quite the memorable experience!

If you're visiting Barcelona, do not skip the Montjuïc cable car and private castle tour; and if you're lucky enough to get Pepa as your guide, consider it the highlight of your trip. From the moment we met, she made the experience feel personal rather than like a standard tour stop. Pepa's knowledge of Barcelona's history was incredible — she wove together stories about the castle, the city, and Montjuïc itself in a way that made everything come alive, not just a list of dates and facts. The cable car ride up offered some of the most stunning views of the city and coastline, and she made sure we stopped at all the right spots to take it in. She also has a great eye for photography — she took some of the best pictures I have from the entire trip, capturing both the views and candid moments without it ever feeling forced or rushed. Beyond the tour itself, Pepa was genuinely generous with her local knowledge. She gave me spot-on recommendations for what else to see in Barcelona and where to eat, all suggestions that felt like they came from a true local who loves her city, not just a script. On top of all of that, she was just a warm, wonderful person to spend the afternoon with. It's rare to find a guide who combines deep expertise with that kind of genuine hospitality. Highly, highly recommend requesting Pepa if you book this tour.

Pepa was a wonderful tour...

Pepa was a wonderful tour guide and a wealth of information. We started at the market and walked around a bit while she explained history etc. She gave us a few minutes to wander on our own and then it was up the furnicular and cable car to the castle. She provided a lot of history of castle, Barcelona and Spain. The castle was interesting and the views were spectacular. Highly recommend. It was hot when we went. Recommend purchasing a fan beforehand 😊. There was a breeze on the terrace.

Wonderful time wasted in this tour.

It was am excelent service, Stephanie bring us to a very interesting piece of history with references, places, people from the past. I am not able to stablish what was the best, due to each step of the journey contained unforgetable details. I want to point out that Stephanie has a bag with very nice support about histoty and this made me feel confident to be with a profesional person. Talking about Stephanie qualities, from my view she is a really kind person and she makes us feel as if she were a friend from many years ago. I strongly recommend Sstephanie services at Barcelona.
