Barcelona Morning Sightseeing Tour: Greet your guide at a centrally located point in Barcelona and travel to Plaça de Catalunya to enjoy a leisurely stroll around the distinctive fountains and impressive statues of the square. Navigate the labyrinth of medieval streets that comprise Barri Gòtic and gaze at the splintering spire of Barcelona’s Cathedral as you head towards Place Sant Jaume.

Return to your coach to enjoy sweeping vistas of the Mediterranean Sea as you ascend to the Olympic Village. See monuments from the Olympics and then continue your ascent to Montjuic Hill to see the city’s impressive skyline from a unique vantage point; visit the Spanish Village to see a diverse architectural tableau inspired by different Spanish regions.

Conclude your morning tour with a cable car ride to Montjuic Castle and capture even more fantastic photographs from the vertiginous position of the ancient fortress. Return to sea level and bid your guide farewell before beginning your afternoon tour.

Optional: Upgrade to include a delicious Spanish lunch during your free time between the two tours.

Artistic BarcelonaTour Including Gaudi’s La Sagrada Familia and Priority Access Pass to Park Güell: Meet your guide in central Barcelona and embark on your artistic exploration of the city. Start at La Sagrada Familia, a controversial modernist construction that has remained famously unfinished. Gaze at its sky-piercing spires as your guide explains the compelling history of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed site.

Next, visit the verdant expanse of Park Güell, an outdoor complex thronged with eccentric sculptures and richly decorated terraces. Sail past the long lines outside with your priority-access pass and explore the green landscape with your guide.

Conclude your tour with a wander down Passeig de Gràcia, a boulevard home to two of Gaudi’s artistic expressions, La Pedrera and Casa Batlló. Hear of how the buildings were originally designed as luxurious private apartments and then bid your guide and group farewell at this central location.

Good, but Could Be Better
michellestravele2019
, Jul 2019
The tour was very good and covered a lot of the highlights of the city. The second half was spent on Gaudi. I didn't feel it was worthwhile to tour only the outside of Sagrada Familia. When I emailed the operator, I was told there would be time to visit inside and purchased tickets separately, but there wasn't. This was a big miss in my opinion and less time could have been spent at the park. I also think there should be a better way to see the apartments than just walking past them. The guides were great.

In this day we had 2 guides.The one in the morning very inexperience showing us harts instead of telling us of the history of the place we visit.I understand that she is working there only for 2 months .The whole bed experience change in the afternoon when we have been lucky to meet Cristina Maky.Very nice presence exceptional knowledge and the will to make us love what she loves.I did not have time to go to the agency to make those comments to Julia.The 2nd day we had the 3rd guide ...very nice but instead to go with us inside for explanation of Dali work the way others guides they have been doing ...let us wonder by our self.It is very important the quality and knowledge of those guides and I think that your company should make a point about that.It is not enough to go around the city ...but for those trips we did need explanations of places we see

Paid for a tour in English but it ended up being in English and Spanish. Since the guide was a native Spanish speaker she was far more comfortable conversing in her own language so English tourists got about 1/5 of the information. Very frustrating.

This was an excellent tour as the sights in Barcelona are far apart and difficult to reach on your own during a day. We were limited on time in the city and this tour provided an excellent overview with many historical details. My teens were with me and enjoyed the tour as well. Jorgie and Cecealy were excellent guides.

We were very disappointed in this tour because we didn't really get to see much except drive around town and have the tour guide explain information that wasn't very important or helpful. This one was not a good tour at all.

Angela S
, Apr 2018
The Spanish Village part could be scratched, not sure why it is actually an important sight to see in Barcelona. Also the cable car ride up the mountain is unnecessary you can't really take pictures and if it happens on a windy day you are more preoccupied with holding on to your seat and praying you get out of there alive. Maybe extant the walking tour in the Gothic Quarter or stop at the old port?
