          Barcelona Highlights - Motorcycle Sidecar tour
          This was a great way to see all the sights of Barcelona on a private tour. There is so much distance between sights and walking would be difficult but this tour allows you to see so many sights easily. With kids this is especially great because they love to sit in the sidecar and don't have the stamina for all the walking of the city! The guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. They will also customize the tour based on what you would like to see or what sights you have already been to. Parts of the tour you get off the bikes and walk around so it's a nice mix. Would definitely recommend.

          We Misunderstood Barcelona
          This is our third visit to Barcelona, but it is the first time we have felt that Barcelona has come alive and become three-dimensional during our journey! The sidecar motorcycle not only offers a different perspective on well-known sights but also allows us to flexibly navigate through city avenues and village alleys. This experience enables us to appreciate the unique character of each corner and discover the impressive human elements of Barcelona hidden beneath its magnificent architecture. Thank you, Johannes, Your meticulous preparation and sharing of your detailed insights have allowed us to savor a brand new Barcelona that will stay in our hearts forever. In the future, every time we visit Barcelona again, we will remember the sunshine you brought to us. 第三次造訪Barcelona,但卻第一次覺得Barcelona在一路的行程中變得有生命的立體起來! sidecar motorcycle不僅僅是從不同的視角觀看耳熟能詳的著名景點,靈活的穿梭在城市大道與village小巷道,能夠體會屬於每個角落屬於自己的特色,發現隱藏在目不暇給偉大建築下,令人讚嘆的巴塞隆納的人文。 謝謝你,Johannes, 你認真的準備與分享你自己細緻的體會,讓我們品味到會一���子留在我們心裡,全新的巴塞隆納。 在未來,每一次我們再次造訪巴塞隆納時,都會想起你給我們的陽光。

          Side car ride!
          This was a great way to see the city. You feel like you are part of the city. Lorenzo was our tour guide and he had a lot of knowledge on the city of Barcelona and Spain in general. This is the only way to go since the traffic in Barcelona is bad. The night tour avoids the traffic along with the motorcycle. We were able to see the entire city from the top of the mountain. This should be one of the first things you do in Barcelona, so you can get a quick overview of the city and know what you want to see next.

          A must-do tour when visiting Barcelona!
          We traveled for 10 days from Madrid to Seville then to Barcelona. Throughout our 10 days in Spain we did multiple tours and this tour was definitely the highlight of our trip! Stephan and Johannes were fantastic from the start. We did the half day tour and spent 3+ hours seeing the entire city. Both were extremely knowledgeable and showed us places we would have not otherwise known about. This tour is a must do when visiting Barcelona! Thank you Stephan & Johannes!

          Best tour, and great experience with my kids
          Excellent tour. Gerardo and Valintina were excellent guides. The tour is personal and flexible, and a great way to get an overview of the city's history, structure and key sites. It soon becomes excellent value for money as it saves a couple of days of transport, footslog and accommodation. It is a fun way of adding a couple of days extra value to your stay.

          A fantastic experience. Our guide (Giui) was fabulous! Courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. He had many stories to tell and had an excellent sense of humour. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Barcelona.

          This is a MUST DO tour! Best way to tour Barcelona! Our kids favorite tour of the trip!
          Great way to see A LOT of Barcelona! Our guides were so amazing! They arrived early, communicated with us up to our tour date and both drivers talked us through the tour. By the time the tour was over both of our boys didn't want to the tour to end! The drivers were SO, SO knowledgeable about the city and taught us so much. Our boys thought this was the best tour of our entire 3-week vacation (and we took a lot of tours). My wife and I also learned so much about the city and fell in love with Barcelona. This tour was a great, fun way to visit the city. It was also fun seeing everyone marvel at the sidecars and take pictures of us riding around. The sidecar is super comfy and fun, but make sure you’re ready to sit on the back or a motorcycle if you are on the bike with the driver. It’s a good core workout! This is a MUST DO for anybody visiting Barcelona and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We would highly recommend this tour to EVERYONE!

          Night tour and sidecar sightseeing
          We took the night tour and sidecar sightseeing with Lorenzo on our first day in Barcelona to get a quick idea about the main attractions of the city. Lorenzo was amazing, very knowledgable with the city history, the tour was very efficient, you could feel his passion about what he is doing. Me and my wife really enjoyed this tour and we highly recommend it! MUST DO!

          Great fun riding in a side car, and allows you to see up & around. With headphones in the helmets we could easily hear our guide Guiu’s interesting & amusing commentary. Also, he adjusted the route to our interests. A really fun way to see Barcelona!

          What a great way to see Barcelona!
          Great way to see A LOT of Barcelona and figure out which areas you would like to focus on more. Our guide, Valentina, was so amazing. She was early to arrive and she talked us through the tour. By the time the tour was over we felt like we were old friends. She was very knowledgeable of the history of BCN and the different areas of the city. Fun way to visit the city, get some fresh air and some sun on a good day like we had. The sidecar is super comfy and fun, but make sure you’re ready to sit on the back or a motorcycle if you are on the bike with the driver. It’s a good core workout! Loved our time and happy we did it. Look forward to seeing the parts of the city we learned about.

        We did a full-day tour with Johannes, we had a wonderful day, being able to see everything in Barcelona we needed to see on a tight schedule.
        Johannes was very pleasant to deal with, the day just flew past.
        We caught a lot of attention throughout the day which made us feel like royalty :)

        Our one day tour on a private van with Lorenzo just made our short trip to Barcelona an unforgettable one. We have included entrance to Sagrada Familia and to Park Guell to our tour and we are truly glad we did. The cava on the top with a full city view was cherry on top! Lorenzo’s energy and knowledge made the tour so special and fun. We did nit understand how 8 hours went by this quick. Definitely a must for every Barcelona trip!

        This was our 1st time to Barcelona and our tour guide over-exceeded our expectations!! Lorenzo was absolutely amazing!! We didn’t know the meeting point and he was so gracious and patient with us. He came and picked us up and didn’t skimp on the sites despite our delay. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and a pleasure to spend the day with!! He even left us with suggestions on places to go back and see as well as restaurant recommendations. I’d encourage anyone visiting this beautiful city for the first time to take this tour!! Request Lorenzo!! He’s the best!

        My wife and I have never experienced a tour such as a motorcycle side car tour. It was amazing. Our tour guide, Guiu was wonderful. Funny, informative and very passionate about his city of Barcelona. He took us all across town- giving us an inside look and history of this fabulous city. For lunch he suggested a quiet little "out of the way" historical Taverna- and the food was absolutely delicious. One the best lunches we had in Barcelona.
        We would certainly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have a fun and enlightening day in Barcelona. Ask for Guiu- you'll love him!

        I've traveled to many cities and taken many tours. This was hands down the best tour experience myself and my family (husband and two kids aged 11 and 13) have ever experienced. Joao and Allesandro spent 8 hours with us over the course of two days showing us all the highlights of Barcelona (the must-see attractions) but also parts of the city most tourists never get to experience. Off the beaten path spots, local neighborhoods, all on a super fun way to get around the city. We felt absolutely safe the whole time, and the tour was completely customizable. As Joao put it, riding the motorcycles makes you feel and see the city in an entirely different way. You will not be disappointed in this experience - trust me! And my kids LOVED it.

        We had such a great time in Barcelona! The tour was really interesting and it was so fun going around in the sidecar of this amazing motorcycle. The helmets were equipped with a headset and a microphone so we didn't miss a thing and we could also ask as many questions as we wanted.

        I totally recommend it and we would definitely do it again.

        Our guide and driver for the day, Alessandro, met us outside of the cruise terminal right on time, and after introducing himself, pulled out a map and gave us an overview of what we would see and do on our tour. Next, Alessandro fitted us with our helmets, tested the wireless headsets, and since it was a chilly morning, pulled out a wool blanket for my wife (who had the sidecar seat). With everything in order, we were off!

        The tour route was a very thorough drive through the entire city, stopping along the way for pictures and commentary. We were given the option of going inside Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell – we decided to only go inside Sagrada Familia (which is amazing) so that we had more time to spend touring the city.

        A few of the many highlights of our day –

        • Alessandro was always the slowest driver, usually taking side streets, and often pulling over to allow faster cars to pass. Not only did this make us feel safe but allowed us to soak in all of the sights.
        • Alessandro made frequent stops for us to stretch our legs and take pictures. One stop was at an overlook high above Barcelona, and Alessandro had a small bottle of sparkling white wine for us to enjoy.
        • Throughout the day, we were stopped by a lot of folks on the street for pictures of the sidecar – that was fun!
        • For lunch, Alessandro gave us several different options based on what we liked and didn’t like, and then dropped us off at a very nice Tapas restaurant. A great choice with good food!
        • Because we were on a motorcycle sidecar, parking was never a problem. Alessandro was able to park as close as possible to Sagrada Familia, right at the front door of the restaurant, and in the middle of the Gothic quarter for our walking tour.
        • Our tour ended in the Gothic quarter, and Alessandro offered to either drive us back to the cruise terminal or let us walk. We chose to walk – after being on a motorcycle for 8+ hours, we needed to stretch our legs. Alessandro gave us great directions, and we had a nice walk along the marinas.

        Overall, an amazing day. Can’t say enough about Alessandro – he was very knowledgeable as a tour guide, very courteous, extremely helpful (he helped us with a little shopping), and gave us a great day in Barcelona. Thanks Alessandro!
