The best bus tour in Barcelona has more than a thousand 5-star reviews :

geoffreyl82

Excellent service

Friendly staff, freely gave advice and information. We did both green and red routes, two day pass. The city is very spread out so able to see whole, and visit the points of main interest to us. The bus was on time and the audio was most helpful and very clear. We would recommend the bus tour.

Hernandez1697  

In Barcelona, this is the best way to visit

1st time in this kind of tour. But is the best decision in Barcelona. All the attractions are far from each other and this is the best way to get there; or you can pay an expensive taxi. We saw all Barcelona. Next time we will enter to some places, but we were satisfied.

Great and safe way to see a city

I do this is most big cities I visit. Get a real feel of a city on an open top bus. The smells and the sounds. Hop on and hop off where you want. There are so many of these buses that you aren’t kept waiting very long

These reviews have been published in the official public profile of Barcelona City Tour at TripAdvisor.
