John –

A great overview of Barcelona, Gina & Arnesto were excellent, lots of information. We could have had a bit more time in Monserrat.

D
Donald –

Best guided tour in Barcelona. Guide, Martha, kept the tour moving and was knowledgeable and thorough on every topic. Tour was with a comfortable bus, exceptional driver, and plenty of time to get your pictures and learn a lot about this great city.

Highlights

  • Enjoy personal pick-up and drop off service
  • See all the main sights in Barcelona in a small group

  • Visit Montjuïc and the site of the 1992 Olympic Games

Full description

See the best of Barcelona on a full-day tour with personal pickup and drop-off service. You’ll travel to the city’s top sites in a first-rate van or minibus. In addition, your driver will take you to the famous mountain monastery of Montserrat, which is said by some to be the location of the Holy Grail.

You’ll be picked up from your Barcelona hotel or your cruise ship terminal. Explore the city in comfort and style with a personal service and travel in a small group with a maximum of 12 participants.

Drive to the top of Montjuïc for breathtaking views across the harbor and city. Montjuïc is home to several splendid museums, including the Miró Foundation, and was also the site of the main Olympic stadiums for the 1992 Olympic Games.

See many of the buildings designed by the city’s most famous architect, Antoni Gaudí. Several are located in the 19th and early 20th-century city extension of Eixample.

Visit the Gaudí and other Modernista buildings, such as Casa Batlló, Casa Amatller, and Casa Lleó Morera on the luxurious shopping strip of Passeig de Gràcia. Head across town to one of Gaudí's most extraordinary creations, the still-unfinished Cathedral of La Sagrada Família. Depending on the option you book, you can either enjoy access to the cathedral with skip-the-line tickets or admire it from the outside.

Drive into the hills to see his lovely urban park, Park Güell, filled with multicolored mosaic sculptures and fairytale houses. If you wish to add tickets to Park Guell (subject to availability by the time you confirm), you can enjoy skip-the-line entry and avoid the long lines at the entrance. If you choose to do the tour without Park Guell entrance tickets included, you can wait outside and join the tour group again when they are finished with their visit.

For Sagrada Familia, we see the its magnificence from the outside (you can go out of the vehicle to walk around and take photos) but if you wish to go inside, there is optional skip-the-line tickets (subject to availability by the time you confirm) and you can do this at the end of the tour with us where we will drop you off at Sagrada Familia and you can easily take a taxi back to the hotel, cruise port, or anywhere in the city center you wish to go to.

You’ll leave the city to visit the Benedictine Abbey of Montserrat. Perched high on a mountain of the same name, the Abbey can be reached by road, cable car, and rack railway. It is also accessible by a 4,000-foot hike.

Your driver will take you up to the top so you can enjoy the impressive views. If you’re lucky, your visit may coincide with a performance by La Escalonia, the oldest children's choir in Europe.

Includes

  • Round-trip transfers from your Barcelona city center hotel or the cruise pier
  • Admission to Montserrat park
  • Admission to the Basilica at Montserrat
  • View of the Black Madonna from a vantage point (inside the Basilica)
  • For groups with 6 participants - tour with an English-speaking driver/guide
  • For groups with 7-12 participants - tour with a driver and a separate English-speaking guide
  • Food and Refreshments
  • Gratuities
  • Optional - Skip-the-line Tickets to Park Guell
  • Optional - Skip-the-line Tickets to Sagrada Familia (at the end of the tour)
  • Please send us an email at SpainDayTours@gmail.com if you wish to add skip-the-line tickets to Park Guell and/or Sagrada Familia (tickets are subject to availability by the time you confirm that you wish to add them) ***
