Perfect way to get an overview of Barcelona - Gerardo and Valentina led us on a fun, informative, and safe trip around the city. They customized our time to fill in the gaps of what we had experienced, planned to experience, and give us a wonderful overview of other things to visit. We spent lots of time in smaller, local neighborhoods and were given great insights that we never would have appreciated. Overall, this was entertaining and informative tour was a highlight of our trip.

FANTASTIC trip through Barcelona! - Guiu was FANTASTIC!! We absolutely LOVED this tour! People were taking picture of US while we drove thru the streets of Barcelona. The helmets were comfortable, the headsets worked great and his English was super so we could communicate easily the entire time. He showed us all the highlights we wanted to see and some unexpected interesting spots as well. What a beautiful city and a beautiful way to see it! We smiled and laughed so much-Guiu has such a great sense of humor! He even made a local suggestion for lunch that was great and learned a little about stock trading on the side! Thank you for a wonderful day!

Amazing experience! - Our whole family loved this tour. My wife and youngest child had never been on a motorcycle before and were hesitant. They loved it the most. Maybe the best way to experience Barcelona. Our guides were informative and friendly. Highly recommend.

Cruisin with Pau and wifey - We had a wonderful half day tour scheduled on our first day of vacation. So thankful that we decided to do this and had Pau as our guide. He is so knowledgeable about the city and Catalonian culture it was a great way to boost our knowledge to really enhance our other experiences on our stay. There are over 30 spots you can see on this tour that is customizable so we discussed with Pau which landmarks we must see and we drew a route on the map right on the spot. Being able to discuss the city, culture and landmarks while we cruised the streets was top notch. The best tour of our entire Europe trip and would 10/10 recommend this again.

Fun way to explore Barcelona - Fabulous day discovering this beautiful city.
Joan and Jo took our family on a tailor-made itinerary, way beyond areas we would have explored ourselves. Lots of story telling and information along the ride, super fun for both adults and teens!
Highly recommend it!

Unique experience seeing the city through a different perspective! - My trip with Joao was awesome! He asked me a little bit about what it is I had seen and wanted to see and crafted a fully customized tour based off that. He was super flexible with pickup and drop-off location and even threw a surprise stop in the mix to get a really cool viewpoint of the city! I think it was well worth the money paid and I can't recommend it more! Everyone also LOVED seeing the sidecar.

Best Part of Our Trip! - Do NOT miss this outstanding tour of Barcelona! We didn't have a lot of time in Barcelona, but feel like we were able to see the best of the city on our half day tour. I recommend you take this tour at the beginning of your stay in Barcelona. You'll be able to see all the best sites and decide those which you'd like to visit again! Our guides (four of us) were Joao and Quim...so incredibly knowledgeable! We learned about all the best parts of Barcelona, from food to wine to sites to see! We were even treated to a glass of Cava while looking over the city from high above! These gentlemen are so proud of their city and loved showing us all the best of Barcelona! I HIGHLY recommend this for a total highlight of your trip!!

The highlight of our trip - What an awesome experience for my wife and I. We did the full day Barcelona tour. Our guide, Quim, was extremely knowledgeable sharing the history and culture of the city. I felt very secure on the back (there’s a grab bar/handle between you and the driver and the rack on the sidecar) while cruising through the streets (& side streets), with an open air view. My wife took great photos/videos while onlookers jaws dropped as we puttered by. Quim was great at tailoring the day to our requests, from experiencing authentic Catalan cuisine, to focusing on some sights over others. An incredible day:)
