This tour was well done. I cannot compare it to any other tour in Barcelona. We liked being able to get off of the bus for several different parts of the tour for an up close look. The group was small due to the off season, so it was like a personal guided tour. Our guide was great and answered all of our other questions. This tour took us to the Olympic stadium, saving us a extra trip. The Spanish village was ok, not sure I would pay to go to that.

Good overview of the city along with some scenic views from the hill next to the city. Guide was extremely informative.

We booked the morning tour with Viator and liked it so much we opted to do the afternoon tour also. In November, no crowds._br/_ We saw much of what there is to see in Barcelona and we were then able to plan what we wanted to do the next 2-3 days and could not have done so without this well planned and well executed introduction to Barcelona. You can do it from the guide books, but you will miss out on things. On your own, don't miss the market La boqueria mercato on La Rambla!!!

Interesting tour. Good way to see barcelona and for one to get to know the surroundings. I would suggest this tour just after arriving to Barcelona.

Review by: DJ W	October 2011
Really enjoyed the tour - friendly and knowledgeable guide who spoke very good English. The tour provided us with a good overview of Barcelona and I really enjoyed the visit to the Spanish village.

Review by: Jane R	September 2011
Excellent tour which gave us a comprehensive introduction to the main areas of interest any attractions in Barcelona. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city.

Review by: Ryszard K	September 2011
It's a good overall summary of Barcelona and I would recommend it to all visitors on limited time.

Review by: ms mary a p	September 2011
It wasn't what I expected. However, we did see some sights I wasn't aware of.

Review by: Tu T	July 2011
okay tour but nothing to write home about.

Review by: Lori W	June 2011
A GOOD OVERVIEW OF BARCELONA. A LITTLE TIRESOME TO LISTEN TO GUIDE TRANSLATE IN AT LEAST 3 LANGUAGES. ID PREFER A SEPARATE TOUR FOR EACH

Review by: Christa D	June 2011
Saw all the main sights of the city...including the Spanish Village. That has some nice shopping. Does not include inside visit to Sagrada Familia but the outside explanation was wonderful!

Review by: Ellen M	June 2011
This is my second time to join this tour. The description on the website of viator did not match what was actually covered during the tour. We didnt stop by the Olympic Stadium and Hard Rock Cafe. Again, I feel that we are wasting so much time at El Pueblo Espanol.

Review by: Barry H	June 2011
Excellent tour. Ihave used Viator many times and always with the peace of mind because of past experience. Location easy to find. I have recommened Viatoir at leastr 5 times to friends knowing they would be satisfied and they were more than as advertised.

Review by: Heather G	June 2011
This was a fantastic way to start my Barcelona adventure. I felt like I really got an introduction to the city and that region. Montjuic and the cathedral alone were well worth the cost of the trip, and the Pablo Espanyol village was a delight! The guide was amazing, speaking at least 4 languages. I appreciated how she made sure that those of us who spoke English were able to hear her when she spoke English, and the same for the people on the tour speaking Spanish, German and French. I truly enjoyed this tour and recommend it to anyone who is interested in getting a taste of what Barcelona has to offer.

Review by: vesna v	June 2011
pretty good-we had a tour guide who dedicated the same time to the english speaking travellers as to the spanish speaking ones which made a difference-it was nice visiting the "spanish village"

Review by: Che T	May 2011
A good introduction to Barcelona.

Review by: Ronald D	April 2011
We expected a rerun of what he had already seen the few days before this tour, but the tour guide, (cannot remember his name) was excellent, supplying a lot of interesting information along the way. I would recommend it t my friends.

Superb introduction to the city.

Excellent tour - very interesting guide with lovely personality.

Review by: Michael F	January 2011
A good introduction to Barcelona, with a very knowledgeable and personable guide. Additionally, I was travelling with my 4 year old daughter and this proved to be no problem for the guide either.

Review by: alohafl	December 2010
Very interesting tour and our guide was excellent also.

Review by: Kathleen P	October 2010
Tour was good but had limited photo opportunities as we didn't stop often and was on the wrong side of bus for photos. Spanish Village was interesting but not what I ex- pected. Had a nasty fall in the village that re-sulted in 2 extremely scraped knees, 2 injured and bruised hands & 1 shoulder.

If you have limited time this is a good tour.

Review by: Harold C	October 2010
The tour was fabulous, Lisbon a lovely city, and our guide was enthusiastic, engaging and very informative. Her aim was to please. We were delighted.

A good way to overview Barcelona

Review by: Carlos C	October 2010
The tour was average. The highlight was the cathedral and gothic quarter. After that they take you up to the olimpic village which is a huge waste of time. If you are not mindful of the time they will leave you behind. I was late by 1 minute and the tour bus left us! We had to catch a taxi back to the city.

Review by: Elaine K P	September 2010
Basic bus tour, nothing special

Review by: Sharon G	September 2010
Tour was average, spent to much time at the cathedral, would have like to spent more time being told where shops, eating places, markets and beach was. We didn't have too much time at the old spanish villlage. Think the tour could be plannned out better.

Review by: Susan M	August 2010
Well worth the cost. Good way to hit on all of the highlights especially if you have limited time in Barcelona. The coach was very comfortable and the guide was great!

Review by: Kathy O, United States of America	July 2010
Our tour was very good Julia was great and feel that it was worth the money we will do it again if we come back to spain

Review by: Nan O	July 2010
Barcelona is beautiful, but this tour company doesn't show you much. We were most disappointed in this tour, taking you to the touristy places, mainly shops, and missing much of the beautiful buildings of Barcelona. At the Spanish Village tour, a most disappointing tourist trap, the guide told us a different return time and had left on the bus before we returned, along with our parcels which we had been told to leave behind. The guides at the Village were most co-operative and helpful in putting us together with our belongings. I wouldn't use this tour company again - we saw more privately than they showed us.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	May 2010
There is a lot to see and this is really helpful way to start your trip to Barcelona.

Review by: Ellen M	April 2010
The stop at Pueblo Espanol was a waste of time. It would have been better if stops were made at the Olympic Stadium. It was lacking in substance - I was expecting more. The sound system in the bus was not that good. Too much translations going on simultaneously. It will be better if it was soley in one language - as in my case, in English.

Guide was courteous and knowledgeable. I enjoyed the tour.

Good overview of the city.

Review by: Fred G, United States of America	November 2009
The guide for this tour was very knowledgeable and we were able to learn a lot about the city. It also was a good way to get an idea of how the city was layed out for future day trips. I would recommend this trip to anyone that has never been to Barcelona.

Review by: SHARON A W	November 2009
Guide was courteous and knowledgeable. I enjoyed the tour.

Review by: Raymond B, United States of America	October 2009
Well organized, nice bus, good tour guide who is very knowlegeable. He had to speak, however in 3 languages at each part of the tour which slowed things down a little. The highlights of Barcelona was very interesting, wish it could have been a little longer. You spend about an hour at the Spanish Village. The tour is well worth the cost.

Review by: Jon M, United States of America	October 2009
Usual bus tour. Very educational.

Review by: Anonymous, United States of America	September 2009
The tour was a nice introduction to Barcelona, although it did not pass by any of the Gaudi sites. The tour had a good pace, not too hurried, and not too much time spent in one spot. The guide gave good information, and was good in communicating how much time we had at Barri Gothic, and also Poble Espanyol. We had about 40 minutes free time in Poble Espanyol It was a little bit short, but still doable. We did not taste any Cava wine as described in the Viator website. The tour guide did not mention anything about tasting Cava wine on this tour. There was also no mention about stopping at Hard Rock Cafe at the end of the tour. However we were fine with our bus returning back to the original pickup stop instead of the Hard Rock Cafe. It seems like the bus driver was open to dropping off tourists at various locations at the end of the tour.

Absolutely best money spent. Our guide was wonderful.

Review by: Thomas W, Germany	November 2008
Informative. Wish there was more time at Spanish Village stop.

Review by: Nicola D, United Kingdom	August 2008
Gave us a real taste of Barcelona and helped us to decide how to best spend our time during the remainder of our stay.
