Best Tour of Barcelona City Highlights - Our cruise ship disembarked in Barcelona and this was the perfect way to spend our day. We were traveling with a group of 8 including 3 seniors. Everything was taken care of - easy pick up from cruise port exit, luggage assistance, tour of the beautiful city of Barcelona with a talented driver and very kind tour guide, and drop off to our hotel. I highly recommend their services!!

Perfect Barcelona tour. If Hugo is your driver, you are very lucky. - Sometimes you get lucky. We certainly did with Hugo. I did quite a bit of research, as I always do, and decided on the 'Barcelona Highlights Shore Excursion with Optional Attractions Tickets' tour. This was a 4 hour half day shared tour by spaindaytours. Spain Day Tours is part of Top Day Tours (just a different branding). My brother and his wife accompanied us. Hugo picked us up from the terminal dock doors in an extremely comfortable Mercedes and took us to some truly amazing places, his knowledge was outstanding. If we wanted to see something in particular or spend a bit longer at one of several stops, absolutely no problem. Park Guell skip the line tickets were included. Hugo dropped us off at the end of the tour at the Sagrada Familia rather than back at the terminal, as requested. We already had skip the line tickets for the cathedral. Do not miss going inside this truly amazing building. Because they dropped us here, the company offers you up to 15 euro's for your taxi trip back to the ship. Just send them an email showing your receipt. (We forgot to ask taxi for receipt). Throughout, communications with this company have been spot on. Every query answered quickly. We have been on many shore excursions over the years and this was right up there. So without hesitation, I thoroughly recommend this tour. Ask to have Hugo drive you, you will not regret it.

Great tour with the bonus of transportation to the port! - We had a cruise leaving from Barcelona and arrived a few days early to spend some time in the city. There were 5 of us traveling with luggage - harder to get transportation to the pier. This tour was the perfect solution - a great morning tour with highlights of the city and transportation to the port with all our belongings. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable. The Park Guell part was fabulous - make sure to buy these tickets as they are extra. I believe you can do this tour in reverse as well - pick-up from the port and deliver to the hotel. Even though we had visited La Sagrada Familia, the perspective and commentary from the outside was illuminating. We all felt this was a great start to the second part of our vacation. There was great communication before and during this excursion.

Car too small for 6 passengers - The car was too small for 6 people. We did not get to actually see the familia cathedral. Gave us 5 minutes. There was too much traffic to actually get a good view of the cathedral. They picked us up at an 1 hour later than we expected. We were worried they wouldn’t show up. The car was not large enough to be comfortable. We did not get a great experience. But did see some of the highlights

Booking failure - Parc Guell with excellent guide/curator for the Gingerbread house. There was an unfortunate glitch with Viator customer service. I booked skip the line for Sagrada Familia and the Picasso Museum, but later realized we didn’t have enough time to visit the Picasso. I called Viator to cancel the Picasso tour, but the Sagrada Familia inside tour was apparently dropped as well! With the construction and barricades around the cathedral, little could be seen and that part of the tour was a huge disappointment! We had been inside the cathedral some 20 years ago and planned this trip especially to show it to our daughter and her family. We discovered this error shortly before beginning our cruise to Barcelona.
