Fabulous Tour to see Best of Barcelona

5.00The history of Old Town by a short walk thru the streets walked by famous citizens of the past and their life was so informative with Tatiana. We then saw the outside of Gaudi House and La Familia Sagrada with Tatiana pointing out interesting design elements. Pick Up at cruise terminal and drop off at hotels made this so seamless!!! We highly recommend this tour!!!
Great tour for those with late flights at end of cruise

4.00Very brief drive-by for some attractions, but good comprehensive description of the Park and Sagrada (from the outside). Tour leader (Christina) was very accommodating to my husband's and my physical limitations and helped us participate as much as possible Pick up at port and drop off at airport were well explained and very smooth.

4.00The tour was actually a five star tour, but I deducted a star because at 4:15PM, the afternoon before our 8:30AM pickup at the cruise terminal, I received an email from the tour provider. They said nothing had changed, but told us to leave the ship at 7:30AM. Their concern was that delays had occurred because of the new European EES system that was recently started. They also said that I needed to confirm recept of the email. It was a long email and concerned me, as to if there was other issues. I confirmed receipt. The next day, we left the ship at 7:30AM, as requested, collected our luggage and was ready to go on the tour at 7:38AM. We had a long wait to get picked up as a result. Other than that, it was an excellent tour and I would recommed it.

5.00Marta was terrific. She was very personable and and knowledgeable, and provided us with historical perspectives of Barcelona. Rain interrupted an outside tour of one of the sights but she had sapre umbrellas that allowed us to weather it. I'd highly recommend this tour service.

5.00After sailing on the Disney Dream on a transatlantic cruise, we had a day to spare in Barcelona. Barcelona Day Tours was highly recommended for us. We did an eight hour adventure to Montserrat, Park Guell and the Sagrada Familia. They picked us up at the Port and dropped us off at the Hotel. Our tour was in a private van in a small group of roughly 8 people. Very informative, well organized and the best part is they had room to hold our luggage from our cruise where they picked us up at 8:30 in the morning and dropped us off by 5:30. I would highly recommend this tour company.
Excellent tour.

5.00I want to thank you for providing such great tour guide, Marta, and driver, they are beyond wonderful!! We were picked up from cruise port, as promised and after the tour, taken to our hotel. Luggage was always safe in van with driver watch our stuff at all times. I initially booked the tour thinking my sister would enjoy it because she loves history and learning about different cultures (me not so much) but because of our FANTASTIC tour guide, Marta, I thoroughly enjoyed the entire day. I didn’t want to leave her or the driver. They are a great team. She knows so much about the area and he is a safe, efficient driver that got us where we needed to go without any issues. WONDERFUL tour and if I ever return, I would like to have that team!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them!!!
