We checked into our hotel at 9a and at 11 we were on our Tuk tuk! What a great way to see the city. Irene was the perfect guide. This is our first time visiting Barcelona and it was great to have an overall view of the city on our first day.

Itinerary
Casa Calvet is a modernist building designed by Antoni Gaudí, located at Calle Caspe no 48 in Barcelona (Ensanche district). It was built between 1898 and 1900. Gaudí was assisted by his assistants Francisco Berenguer, Juan Rubió and Juli Batllevell. It was the first work Gaudí designed and built in Barcelona’s Ensanche, between medians in a rental housing regime.
The Arc de Triomf is a monument located at the confluence between the Paseo de Lluís Companys, the Paseo de San Juan and the Ronda de San Pedro, in the city of Barcelona. It was designed by the architect José Vilaseca as the main entrance to the Barcelona Universal Exhibition of 1888.
The Plaza Monumental de Barcelona is a bullring in the city of Barcelona. Inaugurated in 1914 under the name of Plaza de El Sport, it was immediately enlarged and renamed in 1916 under the name "Monumental".
The Expiatory Temple of the Sagrada Familia, known simply as the Sagrada Familia, is a Catholic basilica in Barcelona, designed by the architect Antoni Gaudí. Started in 1882, it is still under construction. It is Gaudí's masterpiece, and the greatest exponent of Catalan modernist architecture.
Casa Terradas, popularly known as Casa de les Punxes — Casa de los Pinchos, in Catalan — is a building designed by the modernist architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch. It is located in the Diagonal Avenue of the city of Barcelona.
Casa Milà, more popularly known as La Pedrera, for its quarry-like exterior, was the last civil work of the architect Antoni Gaudí before dedicating himself exclusively to the Sagrada Familia. It is a visit that you cannot miss. Built between 1906 and 1910, in 1994 it was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
This building, located in the heart of the Ensanche, is one of the most famous in the city. The architect Antoni Gaudí designed it at the beginning of the 20th century, at the height of modernism, to make it the residence of the Batlló family. It is a true work of art, both outside and inside. If you pass by, when you walk through Passeig de Gràcia, the first thing that will catch your attention is its facade.
It is difficult to visit Barcelona and not go through the Plaza de Catalunya, the link between Ciutat Vella and the Ensanche neighborhood, and the point of convergence of the public transport network and some of the most important streets in the city.

We really enjoyed this two hour tour. Irene our tour guide was very knowledgeable. She gave us history and architecture info. She offered to take our pictures at certain stops and even join in on a photo. Great tour if you don't care to do a great deal of walking.
Our driver (Yego?) was very knowledgeable and helpful, also very friendly! He gave us a great introduction to Barcelona!
The tour was fantastic and very informative.
Dafne was great.. Good introductory tour to the city. Would recommend to do early in your trip. we enjoyed it.
The tour was fun riding in the tuk tuk, and the information was great. The tour guide was awesome! Highly recommended!!
Our tour guides were so knowledgeable and nice. They showed us around the city and gave us interesting facts along the way.
First time in Barcelona and this was our first stop before a great week in this city. Very fun and informative!
Nacho was a great guide & provided lots of information. Pleasant & accomadating. We were spending 3 days in Barcelona & this was an excellent start for our adventure!!
Excellent , very informative and the person that guided us was very pleasant and very courteous, we recommend the tour
Jay was so awesome! Very friendly and knowledgeable - and really fun. It’s such a great way to see a city that requires so much walking. We just needed a break so we booked the express trip but afterwards I was sorry that I hadn’t booked a longer one. It’s that fun!
Excellent showcase for Barcelona. In my opinion, the guide was knowledgeable and explain many details of Barcelona history.
Really enjoyed our 2 hour Tuk Tuk tour of Barcelona. Great way to get an introduction to the city! We had 5 people so we booked 2 Tuk Tuks (max 4 passengers each), and both tour guides were awesome. It was hot that day - like REALLY hot, like 100 F - obviously not their fault but we had a blast anyway!
Our experience was wonderful. We enjoyed the guide and his stories while getting a nice overview of the city. It was easy to locate the starting point and we would recommend this tour to everyone
Lucas and victor were wonderful! Very informative, enthusiastic, and professional. Great way to get around the city and get a quick view of everything.
Victor was awesome! Very easy going and informative as well. The ride was smooth the whole time. My elderly mom has a knee issues and this was a good way for her to see the city. She really enjoyed it. Very responsive on whatsapp and answered all our questions prior to the trip. I would totally recommend this.
This was not worth the money. Our tour guide, Gonzalo I think his name was, was pretty un-engaged and seemed kind of bored. He didn't really have much to say and there were long gaps where I kept trying to ask him questions to get him talking - which felt like a lot of work. He didn't lay out a plan of where we were going, let us know what neighborhoods or landmarks he wanted to take us to, he just kind of drove around, mostly to sights that we had seen or passed already. I could have taken a public bus or a cab to see the same things with almost the same amount of commentary. There was another tour that went out at the same time, and we kept passing that car. Whenever we did the guide was chatting away non stop so possibly we just got a dud of a guide, but I would not say this is a reliable service if not all guides are equally engaged.
Great way to see and get a feel of Barcelona. Our tour guide, Rodrigo, was very nice and knowledgeable. We had lots of fun and learned a lot. It was worth the money and I definitely recommend it
We were driven to all the stops. However, the tour guide did not seem very knowledgeable. She told us almost no one goes to mass at Sahara familia, that Casa Mila has been mostly closed. Nothing about any of the statues or fountains. Just a little bit about the Arc de Triomphe. I would not recommend this tour.
Roger was a fantastic tour guide. He had lots of interesting facts and was really entertaining! We had only had a few hours sleep and riding around in the open air vehicle was perfect!
Roger did a great job showing us around Barcelona and letting us know all about the Gaudi building, Sagrada Familia, Bull Rings and remarkable parts of Barceloa. He even took us to a beautiful overlook of Barcelona
We had an amazing tour of Barcelona city on the TukTuk tour. Communication with the company for the pickup location was excellent. Our tour guides Richard and Rodrigo were the best of the best! Very knowledgeable and fun! The best way to see the sights of this busy city.
Our eco Tuk Tuk tour of Barcelona was great. Alex was our Tuk Tuk driver and she was full of enthusiasm in showing us the highlights of Barcelona. The one hour tour we did went by quickly. Next time we will do a 2 hour tour. The one suggestion we have is that the directions to the Tuk Tuk pick up location were not clear. They should include details about having to go underground to a parking lot. The address given to go to is the address of a Cross Fit studio. It was very confusing.
Irene was our guide & was very gracious & knowledgeable on our 2 hr Tuk Tuk tour of Barcelona on Oct 1, 2024. We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent with Irene. We covered a lot of territory in the short period of time & a wealth of Barcelona knowledge! Many thanks to Irene & Eco Tuk Tuk for a well organized company. Highly recommend to get an excellent overview of the city
This was one of the BEST, most organized tours my husband and I have been on! Our AMAZING guide Judith was awesome in every way. She took us to see every site in Barcelona and gave us ample opportunity to take photos along the way. She went out of her way to find a parking spot by the very crowded Sagrada Familia because she knew how eager I was to photograph it. She was pleasant, super friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. By the end of our tour, I felt like Judith was my best friend 🥰. It was refreshing to get a local's point of view as she showed us around this beautiful city. Also, I have to compliment Ana, who provided unparalleled customer service and answered every one of my millions of questions long before the tour started. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour to anyone who's pressed for time and wants to see all they can in a few hours.
Our guide Richard was awesome! He was very knowledgeable, informative, and pleasant to converse with. He made the tour very enjoyable. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
Roger and Lourdes were great! It was a fun way to see the city on our first day. Definitely recommend!
A very enthusiastic & entertaining tour, with great history & local knowledge delivered in a personal way. Would recommend to anyone visiting.
We loved that we picked a Sunday morning to drive around with our guides Roger & Marco, they were great! Very nice & seemed like a smooth operation. Learned a lot & covered a lot of ground in 2 hours.
Our tour guide, Joan, was awesome. Very insightful and informative. He had a vast knowledge of the city and its history as well. I would definitely recommend.
With only a short time, this satisfied the need to “see” the highlights of Barcelona. I was comfortable riding in the tuk tuk…no issues with safety on our ride
Excellent tour to see the most visited places, specially when there is not enough time. It is very well explain. We enjoyed and recommend it.
Fantastic way to start day one in order to get our bearings of the city. Anna was amazing and I'd highly recommend this experience!
Our driver, Richard, was so fun and showed us various parts of the city and made restaurant recommendations ( like 7 Portas), which were excellent. His tour showed us the areas where we planned to visit the next day. So fun! Definitely recommend!
This was a very worthwhile trip and we enjoyed it very much and he gave us an idea of how the bigger picture of Barcelona is as a city and I highly recommend this trip
Great tour around the city with Claudia. She’s was fun and knowledgeable. The electric Tuk Tuks are an excellent way to get around and provides a very personal tour.
We really enjoyed our quick tour. We only had an hour and this was perfect to just quickly see all the highlights in Barcelona. Our guide as knowledgable and so nice. We had a great time.
Inés was a fabulous tour guide who took us around Barcelona to point out the top places of interest. A great way to see the city!
Fantastic trip with our guide Dafne!
Todo muy bien y la chica muy simpática, el único problema que lo cogimos siendo de noche y los plásticos del techo del tuktuk no te dejan ver hacia arriba, no se veían bien los edificion
Nice visit, nice English guide, good visit but nothing extraordinary ordinary. What to do to get a first idea of Barcelona
We discovered the Tuk Tuk eco completely by chance and we liked the more intimate, more personal side than the tourist bus. You can interact with your interlocutor it is still nicer than a soundtrack! We had the chance to meet a great Guide (Yohan) very friendly who also visited us in French! Really a nice discovery of the city that made us want to go back and spend more time discovering the jewels of this beautiful city!! We recommend the Tuk Tuk eco experience!!
Thanks to Alfredo we have taken advantage of the few hours in Barcelona seeing the most important things from another point of view. Thanks to your exhaustive explanations we have learned a lot. Thank you!
