“The timing was just right on this tour that not only did we get to see an America’s Cup boat going out, we saw all of them. It was not planned nor was it something that we had time set aside for while in Barcelona but we were able through the helicopter tour and the boat ride to great photos of these super technical boats. The tour spent time in the gothic district and was all walking. Some of our group could not stay up so they elected to meet us later for the helicopter ride. Please understand you will be walking on this tour. The helicopter ride is about…”

Actually, it made it fun. Would recommend.”
Private 8-hour Barcelona tour with hotel pickup, skip-the-line Park Güell and Sagrada Familia, plus Montjuïc and the Gothic Quarter.
“This was an OK experience, but I wouldn’t have booked this tour if I understood what was included. I booked this tour to focus on Sagrada Gamilia and Park Guell with a private tour. However, our tour guide was not allowed to join in either location. There was a private walking tour of the city and we received a private tour while driving alone in the car with our tour guide, but the name of the tour was Private tour of Parc Guell and Sagrada Família which it was not. The guide was very accommodating, but I feel this was a bait and switch. Based on what was provided, I…”

I would rate this a must do activity with 10 stars.”
