5.00We used Barcelona Day Tours for a day tour of Barcelona & Montserrat following our transatlantic cruise and were very satisfied with the service. They picked us up right at the port as soon as we disembarked. We packed our luggage into the van and we were off. The van was clean, spacious and comfortable, offering enough room for the luggage of our small group of 14 people. Our guide was very engaging, and gave us plenty of information about the places, we visited or drove by. Montserrat is really amazing with magnificent views, and the time we spent there was just right. The city tour gave us a good overview of Barcelona and covered most of the famous sights. Keeping our luggage with us and getting dropped at the hotel we key aspects of this day! We had a great day. Highly recommended!
A perfect half day tour with an amazing tour guide

5.00I booked an excursion with Barcelona Day Tours for my husband and myself to visit Montserrat and Barcelona. Marta was an incredible guide!!! So informative and educational!! I don't think there was a question she couldn't answer. It is obvious that she loves the country and takes the time to learn everything she can and then share it with others. We would choose this tour company over and over again!!

5.00Great tour. Guide was wonderful; stopping for pictures & expanding on what we were seeing with his knowledge of history of the area and with stories. He made the tour interesting and memorable. Easy pick up at the Barcelona airport & drop off at the passenger cruise pier. If you have only a few hours this tour is the best way to see exciting Barcelona. Thank you Barcelona Day Tours.
Great Tour, wonderful if you only have one day

5.00My wife and I had one day to tour around Barcelona before heading home from our cruise. This tour was perfect for that. We were picked up by our guide at the cruise terminal and driven to Montserrat in a very new and clean Mercedes sedan. And yes, we had a driver and a guide. It was a good thing too as the Montserrat was very busy and there was no parking. No worries though. The driver dropped us off at the site and then came back and picked us up right on cue. The guide was great. She showed us around and provided us with so much information. Then she gave us some ideas for things we could do on our own and let us explore for about an hour and half on our own. Then we drove back to Barcelona where we visited the Sagrata Familia. After a great tour of this spectacular site, our driver picked us and we took a very nice driving tour of the city before being dropped off at our hotel. Both the guide and driver could not have been better. Great experience and I would highly recommend.
Barcelona City Tours is the Best!

5.00Dory was always helpful in answering every single question I had before booking. My wife and I had an amazing time on the tour. Marta, our guide , was beyond terrific. She had a great and optimistic attitude and gave us great historical and in depth information on Barcelona and each stop and landmark we passed. Monserratt was the best and it was helpful we got there early as it got crowded. Stopping and passing the near the Olympic village/ Montjuic was fascinating. Marta’s knowledge of Sagrada Familia made our tour much more enjoyable. Overall the tour was as expected as told to us by our friends who recommended it to us as we will recommend to others in the future. And if we are ever in. Barcelona again, we would certainly take another but different tour with the company.
Great tour, wonderful sights, great memories
