There were about a dozen tourists in our group led by an Australian guide, who was very knowledgeable about the main landmarks and the stories behind them. He was a brilliant guide with a witty sense of humour, and was always looking out for us and making sure no one fell behind or got lost. Despite the 34 degree weather he was very encouraging, especially to less fit ones such as myself! The company is great, they know their stuff, and you get to see a lot more than you would if you were in a car or a bus. I'd recommend this to anyone planning a visit to Barcelona.

This was my third bike tour. I did Versailles and Giverny in 2007, and all have been enjoyable. The guide was good at keeping the group together and navigating through traffic, and he provided plenty of practical information as well as historical perspective.

We took our three children on this tour, ages 16, 14 and 12. They loved it, and so did we. Our tour guide was funny and made the tour very interesting. It was one of our European highlights and a fraction of the cost of some of our other tours that we booked. The bikes were easy to pedal. If you can ride a bike, you can do this tour. We had some light rain during the tour and it was still fun! I can't wait to try the tour operator's tours in other cities.

This was a lot of fun! The streets are crowded. Hard to find bike location before tour. Need a map to help find location. This was true with the other tours I took with Viator. Wasted a lot of time running around to find location. Overall, lots of fun.

My wife and I used the afternoon half-day tour as our first activity after arriving in the city. It is a really excellent way to get an overview of what is on offer in the city, allowing us to spot the areas we wanted to come back to and spend more time in. We had an excellent guide, very informed and friendly, who gave us lots of additional tips and suggestions. It is an easy city to cycle in, and I'd highly recommend this tour based on our experience.

I think the tour guide was trying too hard to entertain us, but he was just great with his knowledge. The tour itself is definitely a must do if you want a fun way to see the sights of the city without walking or driving everywhere.

The tour was one of our holiday highlights. The weather was cold and wet. Our guide was a fountain of Spanish knowledge and terrible jokes--he made the tour! We'll definitely look them up in other countries and would recommend the tour to anyone wanting to get a great overview of Barcelona!
