Good option to visit Barcelona - Very good option to tour Barcelona, the frequency of buses is good, these are clean and the drivers are very friendly (in my case to highlight the friendliness and predisposition of all ). You have free headphones to use and the explanations with the audio are very enjoyable and useful. The route has all the key points to know in Barcelona. We were a family of five and had a barbaric time. Data that I did not have the ticket is valid from the time you buy it for 24 or 48 hours, so if you buy it at 2 pm it lasts until 2 pm the next day. You can see many important things and gave us time to get off and know. Recommended.

Great way to start your exploring - Excellent overview of the city and to determine areas where you would and would not want to spend more time exploring.

Sites of Barcelona Well Covered - Easy to locate from our hotel. The tour has great coverage of all the attractions and important sites of Barcelona. There were some stops that had lines of people waiting to get on the bus. But, other than that, it was a great experience!

Need better 3.5mm plugs! - Great way to experience the city. Only bad part is the audio jacks do not work well so you'll hear lonely cracking in your ear. We were on 4 different buses and they all seemed to share the same issue.

Great for an Overview of City - Great way to see the city - but even in October the lines in certain places were long and the wait to get a bus could be awhile. We still had to walk half a mile to get to Park Guell which was deceptive from the map. At that point we jumped in a cab for the rest of the day.

Great way to see Barcelona - We had gone on a hop on hop off 12 years ago and visited different sites which I enjoyed more. Also all stops were not announced so it was difficult to know where you where

Maybe...on a dry day - Rode the bus on a raining day, and even though I was inside, water still came in...by the windows, doors, and sloshing down the stairs with every start, stop, and turn. Sign says not to eat on the bus, and a person at 2 of the major stops was enforcing this, but driver and ticket takers were eating most of the time. Also, the Park Guell stop is a bit of an uphill and several-stair case hike from the actual park, and their are not directions from the stop as to how to access the park.

Bag choice for traveling during spring break. Not enough buses to handle the crowd - We waited 1 1/2 hours to get on. Full buses. We had to change routes and waited again for 45 minutes. Long stops never made it around th entire route. Then had to get a cab so we could make it back to ship

Awful - Being put off one of your buses in a driving rainstorm. We couldn’t produce the paper receipt But did have the app which clearly showed my wife and I paid for the ride. We will never use Viator again. We both continue to tell our story to others to avoid it from happening to them. Thank you for your time.
