Amazing tour - Our tour guide Marta was great! She is very knowledgeable and easy to understand. It was a wonderful tour filled with many gems. Montserrat was amazing although the road up is very twisty and not great for those who get car sick. Park Guell was beautiful. Sagrada Familia was amazing. I would recommend ending there and doing an inside tour. You won’t regret it!

Best of Barcelona - Sagrada Familia & Parc Guell - Our driver was very knowledgeable and pointed out many places of interest on our way to our tour. He recommended a place to get lunch which was enjoyed by all. Our driver was very accommodating and we would recommend this tour if you are visiting Barcelona.

Amazing tour company and guides! - We took a transatlantic cruise in May 2025 and disembarked in Barcelona. We only had 24 hrs in the city and wanted to maximize our time. We had heard that Barcelona Day tours was a great tour company and decided to book with them. That was one of the best decisions we made on our trip. We were promptly picked up at 8:30 am at our cruise terminal as promised. Our tour guide Marta was amazing. The narration she gave as we drove was very informative, she was happy and kind and great with our two elementary aged children also travelling with us (they also had a car seat available and it was perfect as our daughter still requires a booster seat). She also had great recommendations for lunch and dinner. We enjoyed her company so much, we asked her if she would have lunch with us and thoroughly enjoyed hearing about life in Spain and Barcelona. After a wonderful day of sightseeing, we were then dropped off directly at our hotel. We cannot recommend Barcelona day tours, if you can book the private tour with pick up and drop off, you won't regret it. While the tour did not include La Familia Sagrada, we easily obtained tickets for that on our own and saw it the next day. Our time in Barcelona was short but amazing because of the wonderful tour.

Beautiful Barcelona! What a tour!! - We had a wonderful time visiting Barcelona. Martha was the best tour guide. She was so friendly and welcoming to everyone in the group. She is a walking book of knowledge. We definitely got a great overview of the city and surrounding areas. Our favorite was hearing all about Gaudi and other architects & artists throughout time and getting to see the homes, Park Guell, and the magnificent Sagrada Família. It was truly breathtaking. Thank you for this experience. We hope to be able to visit Barcelona again someday.

Amazing tour guide - Marta was amazing. Her passion for Barcelona, Catalunya made the tour memorable. She is an amazing story teller who wove history and fables into a rich story that kept us captivated and educated the whole trip.

Great Experience - We actually did three tours from this Company during our vacation.
- Best of Cinque Terre
- Best of the French Riviera
- Best of Barcelona and Montserrat
We were very satisfied with all three tours!
The drivers were very prompt, professional and knowledgeable.
We were on a cruise and meeting the tours at the cruise port; it was very convenient.
In Barcelona we were actually picked up with our luggage at the Cruise Port at the end of our Cruise, we went on the tour and then dropped off at our Hotel. It worked out perfectly plus it maximized our day! No time wasted going to hotel first.
The vehicles were very comfortable and well maintained.
We had a great time seeing the sites in each area.
I highly recommend this company and their tours.

A Delightful Day in Barcelona - We toured with Marta our first day in Barcelona, to get the lay of the land and learn about our vacation host city. She, and the city, did not disappoint! She gave interesting and detailed stories and history of Barcelona, Sagrada Familia, and Montserrat. The transit was well coordinated and easy to use. We would absolutely recommend and so enjoyed our tours.
