Bueno vista

I would have liked to had another hour or two there to explore. The guide was very good. Beautiful views.

Great tour with a knowledgeable guide. Worth it.

Nice walk through Park Guell. When we were there it was very hot, bring water as you walk around. Guide is very informative and gives you time to enjoy the sites and take pictures. Sagrada Familia is absolutely amazing. A must see while you are in Barcelona. Again, the guide was very informative, gave us time for pictures, then when the tour was over we were allowed to stay in the basilica and visit any of the areas inside that we wanted. Part of the tour was getting easy access, and that was the case, very little waiting to get in the park or the basilica. Really good tour of just spectacular sites. Don't miss the Sagrada Familia, it's definitely worth it.

Surreal views

A beautiful and majestic place. We did a half day tour of 5.5hrs and had 2 hours to roam freely but an extra hour would have been nice but we didn't want to do the full day tour.

Great nature tour

Amazing trip! Great balance of planned time with guide and free time for solo exploration of the area. The tour was perfectly informational, restful, active, and educational. Angela and Nacho (tour guides) were fun, funny, and helpful. They provided excellent recommendations for other things to do in the area which helped us have some additional memorable experiences while staying in Barcelona.
