A great way to see the highlights of the city is by riding in comfort and style on a half-day Barcelona tour. You will have unbeatable personal pickup from most locations in Barcelona, with drop-off at your ship included. This city tour is personal, interesting, and a stress-free way to get to the port.
You will be picked up with your luggage and it will be stored safely in the vehicle while you explore. This small-group tour covers all of the main highlights of the city in only half a day. See the buildings and monuments that the famous architect and artist Antoni Gaudi has left for all to enjoy, including great views from Montjuic, among other sites.
Places you can expect to see on foot in this city tour of Barcelona may include La Sagrada Familia, a world-famous architectural masterpiece; Park Guell, Gaudi's Park with beautiful views and skip-the-line entry to avoid lines at the gate; Passeig de Gracia, Barcelona's most luxurious shopping and business strip; La Pedrera / Casa Mila, Gaudi's famous building in Barcelona; Casa Batllo, Gaudi's astounding contribution to Modernism; Casa Amatller and Casa Morera, two parts of the famous trio "Apple of Discord"; Plaza Espanya, the most impressive plaza in Barcelona; The Olympic Ring, the site of the 1992 Olympic games; Montjuic, for great city views on top of the hill and a view of the port; The Columbus Monument, named for the world-famous explorer; Port Olympic, marina, shops, restaurants, galleries, and more; and Plaza Catalunya, the famous plaza at the heart of Barcelona.
Upon completion of this amazing half-day experience, you will be taken to the pier and your awaiting cruise ship.
Please Note: Please be advised that on busy days, Park Guell may not be visited. In such cases, extra time will be allocated at other stops instead. In Barcelona, certain hotels and apartments are located in areas where there is limited road access, making it difficult for guests to be picked up directly from their accommodation or dropped off after the tour. If you are arriving by cruise ship, this tour departs from the cruise ship pier. For hotel guests, custom pick-up is provided from hotels that are not located within the historic part of the city. Please enter your desired pick-up location when booking, and we will reconfirm the specific pick-up information once your tour is confirmed. We recommend contacting the tour operator after making your reservation, especially if you have luggage, to confirm whether direct pick-up or drop-off is available from your location. In terms of luggage, we typically allow one large suitcase and one carry-on bag per guest.
