The best way to discover the most iconic buildings and secret corners of Barcelona: a running route of 10km. We'll discover Sagrada Familia and other Gaudí most iconic buildings, the best beaches of the city and the Gothic quarter, where I live. I have a lot of curiosities and cultural explanations about each place that we'll visit. And I'm quite flexible about where we can start and the best departing hour. Don't hesitate to suggest the best option for you. I can modify the agenda suggested.

5.00This was one of the highlights of our trip to Barcelona, it was the perfect start to the day and allowed us to see so much in a short trip. Oriol was friendly and knowledgeable about the local area, he made the experience fun and I would definitely recommend this tour to anybody who enjoys staying active whilst learning lots about the local area from a local.
Best early morning run!

Best way to see Barcelona's highlights

5.00Best way to see Barcelona's highlights. This tour is good if you have a tight schedule in Barcelona and don't want to miss the most important sights. Or if you have more time,this will serve as a primer so you can later decide what's worth more of your attention. Oriol does a great job designing and customizing the tour to your liking and he has a wealth of knowledge to share about his city (Barcelona). He even finishes the tour by offering to take you to the terrace of the building where he lives which has breathtaking views of the city. It is a great tour to take, don't miss it!

5.00Oriol was an excellent tour guide, who is clearly passionate about his city. It was a 10km run but did not feel like it as Oriol spends lots of time explaining history, showing you the big attractions as well as some hidden gems, while helping you get some great photos. It was so nice to spend some running around Barcelona with a friendly local who makes the whole experience so easy and comfortable. Highly recommend!
Wonderful time in Barcelona!

5.00We started before dawn, and ran throuth the city of Barcelona. The Sagrada Familia with no tourists and the Mediterranean Sea at dawn were so beautiful. Oriol was kind and knowledgeable guide. He took some nice photos. If I could speak English better, I'd have liked to talk to him more. Thank you Oriol, let's run together again!
Fantastic experience with Oriol!

5.00Oriol was a fantastic, knowledgable and generous guide. He took us on a fantastic run in a part of Barcelona we would have never visited otherwise. We loved hearing his reflections on Barcelona, and it was such a wonderful time. Thank you Oriol!

5.00Oriol contacted me before the trip to ask about what I would like to see on my running tour. It was definitely a fun run and the early start meant you get to enjoy the important spots with minimal tourists. He even helped me take my best holiday photo!
Great Local Running Experience

5.00Fantastic run with Oriol. A very friendly guide who took us to places we wouldn’t have seen otherwise and was very knowledgeable about the history of his beautiful city. A great way to explore Barcelona before most tourists and Catalans are out of bed. Thank you Oriol. We promise to return the favour when you bring your wife on her dream trip to Australia!
Perfect way to acquaint yourself and get some exercise all at the same time!

5.00Oliol was the perfect running partner and guide through his own beautiful city! It was so great to see the sites early before the locations were full of people. It was also the perfect time to run and get to hear a super knowledgeable viewpoint of the city highlights. A plus was that after the fact Oliol emailed me many of the places we talked about so that I could take my family back afterwards. I look forward to getting to run together again.
Fun sightseeing run

5.00Met right in the middle of the gothic quarter. Early morning run before the city is busy. Guide showed up right on time. Viewed great city sights. Oriol Is knowledgeable and a true local, got to hear about his favorite places in the city. Guide kept pace with slowest runner allowing everyone to enjoy the run. Plan to do this again when I visit Barcelona. Thank you Oriol!!
