See a different side of Barcelona, on this 4-hour bike ride off the beaten path.

Ride in small groups of just 8 people max. (plus guide), and feel a closer connection to the city.

Discover obscure but beautiful attractions such as the Hospital de Sant Pau, and the neoclassical cemetery of Poblenou.

This activity is not about seeing the major sights and hearing facts you could read in a guidebook, it's about heading out on your bike to parts of the city that many locals don't even know about, in the company of a passionate guide!

No two tours are the same, but some of the cool experiences that await you include: visiting a flea market, learning about Barcelona's art nouveau and modern architecture, admiring street art, and riding along Barceloneta beach.

All tours include a refreshment break to stop for pastries or tapas in a local bar.

Our small group ethos means that, unlike standard bike tours of the city, you’ll not only be learning about Barcelona, you’ll be living it too!

Included

Bike rental and Bike lock
Experienced and fun local guide!
Bike helmet (optional, available on request)

What you'll do

Port Olimpic
Barcelona, Spain
Built for the 1992 Olympic Games, this shining white marina transformed Barcelona's coast and is full of bars, clubs and modern sculptures... like Frank Gehry's golden fish. Renovated in 2024, it's a stunning place to start and end our tours.
15 min
El Poblenou
Barcelona, Spain
This former industrial district is full of treasures, such as modern parks, neoclassical cemeteries, street art, "superblocks", and dazzling new architectural projects. Its quieter than the centre and ideal for cycling around. Most of our tours pass by this district.
45 min
Torre Glories
Av. Diagonal, 211, Torre Glòries, Barcelona, Spain
This phallic-shaped wonder is one of the most iconic buildings in Barcelona. We marvel at its multi-hued exterior and discuss the modernisation of the city.
10 minAdmission not included
Los Encantes Barcelona
Carrer de los Castillejos, 158, Avinguda Meridiana,73, Barcelona, Spain
We often stop off at this charming old flea market and shop for kitsch souvenirs, or stop for a snack. The entire area has been revitalised in recent years.
30 min
Parc de la Ciutadella
Passeig de Picasso, 21, Barcelona, Spain
This gorgeous park is named after the citadel that once sat here. We explore its many points of interest, including a fountain partially-designed by Gaudi, and get some oxygen in our lungs.
20 min
El Born
Ciutat Vella, Barcelona, Spain
We love to show travellers the hidden back streets of the Born district, full of secrets, boutiques, artisan shops and cosy cafes.... the central 'square' used to be a medieval jousting ground!
30 min
Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar
Placa Santa Maria, 1, Barcelona, Spain
On most tours we pass by this sensational Gothic masterpiece and admire the rose-window façade, before exploring the rest of El Born.
10 min
Playa de La Barceloneta
Passeig Maritim de la Barceloneta, 16, Barcelona, Spain
No cycle ride in Barcelona is complete without a ride along the beach. We normally reserve this route for the way home, enjoying the sun on our faces and the carnival atmosphere of this crazy playa.
