very good

Takes you to all the sights

Review by: Roy L	January 2012
this was very informative. Took you to a lot of sights. _br/_ they let me add a second day to my ticket. Had originally purchased a 2 day from you, but since they were closed on Jan. 1, you could not do a consective day.

Good experience, nice stopping points.

Review by: Beardman	November 2011
We always do these tours wherever we go as they are great for orientating to the city. With this City option you can do both the East West and the North South but you'd need a 2 day pass (which we took) to take advantage of both routes.

Review by: Ginny S	November 2011
The East to West hop on hop off bus was worth the price. We rode around on both lines and the commentary was informative.

Review by: sarah r	November 2011
The sights that you see are very good, but found once you got off of a bus it was very difficult to get back on at 1 stop we had to wait for 3 buses. Also 2 of the buses we were on broke down and they were not able to bring an empty bus so you just had to wait until you could get on another one.

Review by: Alan Reingold	October 2011
Perfect way to see the city.

Review by: kberz	October 2011
This bus and the stops it visits is well worth the money. Since we had a very short time in Barcelona, it was definitely a good choice. Being able to change to the 'North/South' route allowed us to see SO MUCH. We really enjoyed it. We certainly got our money's worth as we hopped on/off for a full 12 hours!

Review by: golfgal	October 2011
A grest way to see Barcelona. Transfer points were easy and good access to the cruise port. K

Review by: Bo	October 2011
Great tour that gives a great overview of the whole city. We loved it and learned a lot by taking the whole thing one time through and then revisiting the places that looked intriguing.

Review by: Naveena N	October 2011
Great way to see the sights and get your bearings especially on the first day.

Review by: Neko	October 2011
Good value for the money. Stopped everywhere we wanted to visit and gave an excellent overview of the city. Would not have needed it for 2 days , though.

Review by: Colin T	October 2011
Excellent value and very enjoyable trips, easy to switch to north south bus which we did on day 2, tour staff very friendly and helpful

Review by: Ron	September 2011
Booking for sightseeing bus worked perfectly, staff onboard were very helpful and the 2 routes provide good coverage of the city.

Review by: Valley4681	September 2011
Good way to orientate yourself to Barcelona as many of the sights are well spread out.

Review by: mark k	September 2011
trouble at first finding right route but once on it everything was ok.

Review by: stucolleenfan	September 2011
This was a great way of getting your bearings after arriving in Barcelona in the morning. Mostly, just rode the entire route- it was a beautiful hot day- and waited until after our cruise to explore Barcelona more in depth. I, personally, found the earphones kept falling out so this was an annoyance. Also, on one of the buses, none of the earphones seemed to be working! Would recommend this tour to new visitors of Barcelona

Review by: EUPHEMIA W	September 2011
We purchased the 48hour ticket. Excellent value. Day 1 took the red line tour to visit famous landmarks and waterfront and day 2 allowed us to go along the green line which explored different areas of the city including the hilltop park.

Review by: Victor G	September 2011
Very good. We were able to see all the major sites and attractions by the hop on - hop off bus.

Review by: Grace H	August 2011
It was very convenient.

Review by: Sarah B	August 2011
Excellent. Plenty of buses, friendly staff. Each bus filled to no more than 2/3 on top deck before setting off. One bus broke down and a replacement arrived within 10 minutes.14 year old son loved it.

Review by: Kenneth C	August 2011
The bus tours were great. We got the two day pass and hopped on and off when ever we saw something we wanted to take in. It was actually easier than advertised to find a pick up point. We found Barcelona easy to navigate because of the buses.

Review by: Leonardo A	August 2011
Best way to get to knoe Barcelona.

Review by: Greekgod	August 2011
It is good value to see Barcelona in full, though it could have advised Park Guell might be huge so we should take our time.

Review by: Raul M	August 2011
This tour really makes an effort to tell as much as possible about the history of Barcelona. There are just a few silence gaps in which they do not talk. I loved it!

Review by: Roslyn M	August 2011
A good way to get around Barcelona and see the sights. Buses ran frequently. Very Happy with this tour

Review by: Janice S	August 2011
I'd recommend this for a "first day" getting acclimated to the city and sites. Lots of good information, but more in-depth tours will make the visit better.

Review by: mark h	August 2011
an absolute must to find your way around and to see the best of the city!

Review by: Geoff J	July 2011
Fantastic service. Well sign posted with staff available at many stops to help with questions. Very well organised staff on the buses as well. Used this service for 2 days in Barcelona and really felt we had a feel for the city using this type of travel. Well done!

Review by: Caryn	July 2011
Excellent to get around above ground and see the city, which also gave insight to the subway locations in relation to the attractions.

Review by: Bruce N	July 2011
We were not sure where to pick up the bus. We were staiyng in Poblenou. We showed our leasing agent a receipt for our payment. She told us to look for a bus with the logo that distinguished your bus from the Barcelona Turism buses. We walkwed from one stop to another, asking for help. We tried to get on two different buses that did not have your logo. My original thought had been to take the Metro to Port Olympic and hope that the Metro station was near in view of your bus stop. But we were confident that the leasing agent knew where to direct us.. After an hour of walking back and forth, we hailed a cab, showed him the symbol and asked to go to Port Olympic. He dropped us off at the bus stop. The tour was very good and I would recommend it. For your futuire customers, you should send them a link to the bus route for East and West, showing exactly where the stops are, with the strewet names and the locations of the nearest Metro stations.

Review by: Ellen M	July 2011
I really think this is one of the best ways to see Barcelona. It's a huge city and there is so much to see. This tour takes you to major attractions and I never had to wait more than 5 minutes for another bus to arrive. This made our trip so much easier!

Review by: Christine W	July 2011
Great way to explore Barcelona. I love the hop-on hop-off bus. So convenient. The waiting time was less than 5 minutes. The frequency of the bus was surprise me. My husband and I did a non-stop first ride to give Barcelona a overall view. Then on the 2rd ride, stopped at our interested points. I bought two-day passes. I did west route on day 1 and east route on day 2. Definitely highly recommended to my friends.

Worth the $$$$, should be the first thing you do in Barcelona!

Review by: Jose	July 2011
