Additional Information

During our Hidden Gems tour, we aim to discover lesser-known parts of the city by biking through stylish local districts such as El Born and Poblenou.

Poblenou, being Barcelona’s most cycle-friendly district, boasts an array of bike paths, serene streets, and even multiple vehicle-free zones. It is also a home to some of the top architectural marvels of the Catalan capital including the unique cucumber-shaped skyscraper, Torre Glories, and others.

Despite the modern structures adorning the neighborhood, Poblenou retains its distinctive local charm with its vibrant rambla, picturesque village squares, verdant parks and must-visit food markets.

We also traverse through the quaint Old Town district known for its tight-knit medieval alleys, grand Gothic churches and dynamic terraces brimming with locals enjoying tapas and cervezas.

Our guides will lead you to some of the city’s hidden gems, overlooked monuments, urban art and secluded corners, before pausing for a drink at a neighborhood market, tapas bar or chiringuito (beach bar).

Very insightful - Mariana was a delightful guide and have us a very personalised and insightful tour; as we were a “private” tour she was very flexible to take us both where we wanted to go and to offer a suggested itinerary. Altogether it was entertaining and fascinating and I thank our guide for being so accommodating.

Loved the bike tour with Alex - One of my favorite activities in Barcelona thus far! Alex was a great guide! Hes super knowledgeable about the development of the city and how things cane to be—which was really cool to hear about. I thought my friends and I already saw enough local experiences but i was so wrong. Alex showed us so much more to local areas in Barcelona that we never wouldve seen otherwise. Amazing.

Bike tour of Barcelona - Alejandro was our tour guide. she is exceptional; entertaining, fun, energetic, way beyond our expectations. She took us places with our bikes that we would probably not try on foot because of the crowd congestion in narrow back alleys of the old town. She loves Barcelona and takes pride in introducing the city to the visitors. Highly recommended

Amazing experience - Amazing atmosphere, a very friendly guide who made the experience even more enjoyable. Great to discover some places that only the locals will know. I don't cycle often so was a little bit worried but it turned out to be just the right pace.
