About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- AGC3140 contributionsPerfect day tour of BarcelonaOur group of 38 adults and children had a FANTASTIC experience on our guided day tour of Barcelona. Elena and Marta were great with the group. The vehicles were spacious and comfortable. The tour proceeded like clockwork, with no snags along the way. They were so knowledgeable and kept the group engaged the entire day. We appreciated how seamlessly we entered Sagrada Familia and Parc de Guell without a wait. They made great suggestions for a lunch stop and hit so many major landmarks in the city. Working with Aurelio to book the tour was so easy and such a breeze. I appreciate how accommodating he was to our requests. The company also booked us tickets to a flamenco show, which was also a hit with the group and a welcome place to sit in the AC after a day of touring.Written July 20, 2024
- cassie33750 contributionsBest way to see Barcelona highlights!This tour was a wonderful way to quickly see the highlights of Barcelona. Even if you will be in Barcelona long enough to explore further, it gives you a lay of the land. Communication leading up to our trip was great and we were picked up promptly from the port when we got off our cruise ship. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. Even though it was not technically part of our tour, they also arranged for my group to get skip-the-line tickets to Sagrada Familia. Definitely recommend!Written July 15, 2024
- ckt750 contributionsFantastic day in Barcelona!Marta was exceptional - kind and so very informed and kept the flow of the day interesting. We learned SO much! Amongst the very best of tour guides!Written July 15, 2024
- Paradise403498757990 contributionsBarcelona has my heartGreat tour. Park Guell and La Familia did not disappoint. Our tour guide was amazing and the whole booking process a breeze.Written July 14, 2024
- sohia20240 contributionsOne day in BarcelonaThe Tour was really great. I wanted to say it was a great day thanks to OUR driver and guide Hugo. He picked up us on time in the morning, was very gentle and so knowledgeable as a guide as well as patient on his driving which made the whole day comfortable and fun. He answered all of our questions in more details and in a very interesting way so we could learn a lot about Spain as well. The sites were beautiful and his explanation helped us to enjoy each of where we visited. I also want to thank Mark who is from the tour company for organizing this tour so well and contact us when we had changes so we could clearly know what is going on. It was a great tour in a comfortable Van and the sites were great. I just had a misunderstanding that we will be visiting more places outside of van but we were passing by inside the van which I preferred to get out. I understand that is due to limited time though. I recommend this tour for anyone has a limited time in Barcelona to explore the city.Written July 14, 2024
- m1kat20 contributionsSuperBarcelona TourThe tour was great and a big thank you to Christian (The German), who made the tour more enjoyable. Christian was very Professional, Pleasant, Charming, Considerate, with a great knowledge of Barcelona History. We will definitely recommend your company to our friends and relatives for future tour. Best regardsWritten July 14, 2024
- M2405RFkellyk0 contributions1/2 day private tourWe had an amazing private tour/transfer from the airport with Hugo! He is an exceptional tour guide. He was enthusiastic, professional, and very informative. It was the perfect way to spend our first day in Barcelona.Written July 9, 2024
- fifi24Falkirk0 contributionsBarcelona Half Day TourWe were disembarking our Cruise but our flight wasn't till later in the day so we booked a half day tour with this company. Anna met us at the cruise port and showed us to our bus with our luggage. We toured a lot of the sights and also spent an hour and a half at Park Guell. Anna was so lovely and very informative of her home city. We were then dropped at the airport which was another reason we booked this knowing our luggage was safe in the bus and taking us straight to the airport. If im ever back in Barcelona in the future i would defo use Barcelona Tours. Anna is a credit to this companyWritten July 9, 2024
- sellwingri0 contributionsBarcelona Day TourOur tour was absolutely fabulous! Christian, our guide, took us everywhere in Barcelona-places there’s no way we would have found on our own. He knew everything about the city and he shared his knowledge with us. I used Barcelona Day Tours a few years ago and also had a wonderful tour. I highly recommend this company!Written July 7, 2024

- Chad H0 contributionsBarcelona & Montserrat in a DayWe were in Barcelona for a Western Mediterranean cruise in June 2024. We booked with Barcelona Day Tours months in advance of our cruise. The booking process & instructions were clear & easy to understand, including the pick up point. They full communicate via email & WhatsApp, so there is no confusion. On June 15, 2024, we took an all day tour of Barcelona & Montserrat and everything was perfect and just as promised. We were in an 8 passenger van. We had a driver & a guide, who spoke English and was very knowledgeable in everything related to Spain. We first visited Montserrat in the morning to avoid the late crowds in the afternoon. It was much cooler in the mountains, but very beautiful & peaceful. We had about an hour to visit on our own. You can enter the Cathedral, but you will not get to see the Black Madonna as that is an extra cost and a long line to wait in. After Montserrat, we left for Barcelona. We got an overview of the City and its views from different places. We did stop at La Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell. Major construction is still ongoing at La Sagrada Familia, so your pictures won’t be as dramatic, Parc Guell is very nice, but hot and crowded in the summer, so be prepared. All In all, this is a nice tour of Barcelona & Montserrat in a day and Barcelona Day tours delivered as promised and I highly recommend them.Written July 4, 2024
- Jsta20100 contributionsMontserrat & Cava private tourWe had a wonderful day visiting Montserrat and ArtCava winery. This was a full day private tour for 4 adults. The price was reasonable and well worth the tour! We were picked up from our hotel for the tour in a comfortable air conditioned van. Fabio was our driver and tour guide. He did a fantastic job sharing a lot of history about Barcelona and Montserrat. Montserrat was worth visiting and the views were amazing. It is hard to believe that the area was once under water and that the monks had to trek so far up the mountain. I’m sure it took weeks compared to the short drive today. I can’t imagine what it took to build the basilica, which was amazing. We viewed the Black Madonna in the basilica. There was the option to see her up close. The boys choir was not performing the day we visited although a friend told me that he visited when they sang and it was wonderful. Santiago was our host at ArtCava and did a splendid job explaining the grounds and the process of making cava. It was quite interesting to see. Of course after tasting we bought some bottles of Palago to enjoy later. I would highly recommend this tour and would use them again on my next trip to Spain!Written July 3, 2024
- the365worldtraveler0 contributionsExcellent Barcelona Tour for TwoMarta was great. She was super knowledgeable and passionate about her work. In addition to the major tourist sites, she took time to explain some of the overlooked, more nuanced locations and their history. I highly recommend this tour.Written July 3, 2024
- Coastal7031620 contributionsDay tour in BarcelonaWe used Spaintours.eu to book a day tour. And it was better than we ever expected. They were on top of it. Our guide Anna went out of her way to make our tour very memorable. At the end of the tour on her way home she showed us a great place to eat and try there local food. She definitely went above and beyond to make our day one to remember.Written July 2, 2024
- kukanam20150 contributionsAwesome tourFirst of all, the communications pre-tour was very good. Dory was very efficient in giving details of the tour and keeping us up to date with her emails. We were picked up on time outside of our VRBO apartment building and was met by our guide Marta and driver David. There were about 10 of us in a nice A/C vehicle as the other guests were picked up at their hotel. Marta was very knowledgeable with the history of the city and it's sights and she answered any questions we had. We enjoyed the tour of the city of Barcelona, Park Güell, Olympic Park, however, the view on top of Montserrat was obstructed by fog. Still it was a fun day. We finished the day at the Sagrada Familia. All I can say is we had a great time!Written July 1, 2024

We had a beautiful day with Spain Day Tours visiting Montserrat and Barcelona Highlights. It was great from early morning all the way to the end of the tour. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Our guide was knowledgeable and very enjoyable. He gave us information about all of our stops and was quite enjoyable. The day was very scheduled out and both the bus driver and the guide did an excellent job of keeping everyone on schedule. Shoutouts to the office staff as well. They did an excellent job of communicating with me before booking, during the booking and after the tour was over. I highly recommend using the company Spain Day Tours.

The Barcelona and Monsterrat tour was wonderful! I appreciated the hotel pickup, the organization, and all of the hints and information provided during the day! It was a perfect tour for me, as I had not been to Barcelona before. The ability to experience so much in one day was exactly what I was looking for.

We were picked up at meeting point by our driver with Marta as our guide. Beautiful drive to Montserrat, awesome sights. The Basicilica was gorgeous, saw the Black Madonna and had a bite of lunch before back into Barcelona. City drive thru one of the cemeteries, up to Mont Juic, then to Parc Guell and La Sagrada Familia. Marta was very informative with going overboard. Wonderful day.

Our tour of Barcelona with Barcelona Day Tours exceeded our expectations. We were a group of 9 seniors and were picked up at our hotel. We also had a cute little family of 5 on the tour with us. Our guide, Marta and driver, Xavier were amazing. Marta was so personable and fun. She was a wealth of information. Our first stop was Monserrat with time to see the “Black Madonna.” From there we walked through Guell Park. Marta kept everyone involved throughout the entire day. It was a hot day and Marta kept a slower pace through the Park and kept us in the shade where possible. We drove to a few more lookout spots to overlook the city. Our final stop was LaSagrada Familia. She walked us all around the exterior of the Cathedral giving us the history and descriptions of what we were looking at. It was like nothing any of us have ever seen! We finished our tour by going through the inside of the Cathedral. It was a full day and we will remember this tour for a long time. Don’t hesitate to book Barcelona Day Tours!

Barcelona Day Tours came highly recommended by friends who used them last year. We started corresponding months before our trip and they really went out of their way to give us options that fit our needs. They provided exceptional service before, during, and after our trip. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. The tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable.

We were met promptly at our ship by Martha, the fabulous tour guide. Her English was without accent! The whole day was long but covered important sites and helped orient us to the city. At the end we were dropped off at our hotel. No need for a cab. I can’t say enough about this excellent company, and how much I loved knowledgeable Martha. Ask for her!

If you choose to be picked up at port with luggage and you choose this excursion and enter La Sagrada Familia at the end of tour are you then brought back to your hotel.

No it does not. You will have to buy tickets and visit the inside separately. The tour does stop there and you see the outside and the tour guide talks about the building and the structure but the inside tour is separate.

The pick up point is pretty much where you arrange it,. I was coming off a ship so they met me at the pier. They are very responsive to emails-email them and ask them the best place to be picked up or specify your preference.

Yes-visited the area and walked around the entire exterior of the church. An amazing site. We then booked directly with Sagrada Familla (on line) an inside tour the next day. Worked out great.
