    Heidi is a great guide. It’s much more fun doing a bike tour than a bus tour as you get to go to the old part of town and you are constantly moving, not standing around listening. Heidi was very friendly and knowledgeable and kind to the children. My only suggestion is that you stop at a better restaurant for lunch: that one had two blocked toilets. An extremely good tour!

    Fun way to see Barcelona, would highly recommend

    We were a group of 15 on a family holiday. Eva and Marco were fantastic guides going out of there way to accommodate such a large group. They made the experience fun and informative. We learnt and saw a lot of the city. I would highly recommend them for ease of use of website to email communication. Give it a go you really won’t be disappointed

    The part of the tour I liked most was being outside, cycling around the beautiful city of Barcelona. The guide was nice and telling some interesting things. Because this was my eighth time in Barcelona there wasn’t much new stuff for me. The tour ended up at the beach of Barceloneta where we had the opportunity to have lunch, which we all did. Be aware that the price of the lunch is not included in the tour. It was nice having lunch with the group but there are certainly better places to have lunch. The bikes were fine but cycling in Barcelona is quite a challenge.
