Great way to view the city from the water. I wish the trip was longer and we got to see more but it was a lovely trip

Came here whilst on a tour and it was a lovely trip. No commentary but it was nice to see all the sights in an hour trip. Friendly staff with a nice bar on board. Recommended.
No Guide to the trip - just classic rock music - which normally I would like. Also no safety announcements- would not recommend!
An utter disgrace. Total scam, these guys should lose ALL their licenses. They do a bait and switch scam. You pay for a boat max 35 people and they put you on a different boat with a max 150-200 people. Also in my opinion totally unsea worthy boats.
Total scam. Classic bait and switch. They advertise a small boat for 35 passengers when booking, then when you show up they only have a 150 passenger boat available. Police were already there dealing with the many angry customers when we arrived. Lots of shouting from the employees of Las Golondrinas. Absolute waste of our time and money and a huge disappointment for our children.
Good staff, great location excellent trip
Basic, un-narrated tour that covered most of Barcelona's coast line. Very reasonably priced way to see Barcelona from.a different perspective, esp seeing Sagrada Familia rising up in front of the hills.
Nice little boat ride around the harbour. Only €12 for an hours trip. Not a great deal to see but some nice views across the Barcelona skyline. Well worth an hour for the price.
Easy pickup for a great ride! The boat has indoor/outside seating plus different spots to stand. A great way to experience Barcelona!
A wonderful trip on the Mediterranean with snacks and beverages. A very laid back experience with easy access to shopping and the self describe best food court in the world (it does not lie).
Was a nice scenic ride of the port area for a great price. We would have liked it if they had done some narration during the ride.
A lovely little trip. End of October but was blessed with beautiful sunshine and flat seas. A nice way to pass an hour or so.
Breath Taking - Amazing experience! It was reliable and budget friendly!! I will surely recommend!!!
Enjoyable and inexpensive. City views and coast views good. Jaunt around the weat silo’s not so much. The staff were nice. Liked it.
There were no accompanying audio guides so no idea what I was looking at. What I did see up close was some massive cruise ships and industrial cargo. Nice to be out and see but please, just give tourists a few hints as to what they might be able to see!!
There was no guide or talking. This boat “tour” felt like just a commuter water taxi. I would not recommend this excursion.
Nice skyline view of Barcelona from the water. Easy to find venue & there are many other activities happening in the area.
This company are a shambles we had planned on going on the 40 minute harbour tour, we asked at the kiosk and was told that they are still operating even though you cannot book a weekday sailing online, when we arrive all of the harbour tours had been cancelled not just one or two but all weekday sailings, they must have known this when we asked but are so terrible that they lied to us. They tried to sell us the more expensive harbour and coast cruise but they hardly go near the ships which is what I wanted to see.
It was a very relaxing and refreshing cruise; a much needed activity following 4 days of attending exhibitions and visiting clients. The nice thing about the cruise is the upper deck where you get to enjoy the sun and the cool breeze as the boat sails along the coast. I do wish that the cruise was a bit longer, I know that there are the 2 hour boat cruises but they were not available as frequent as the 1 hour cruise. I also wish that there was live commentary on the different points that we were passing by.
Excellent boat equipped with bar charging reasonable prices. Ticketing swift and straightforward. We boarded and pushed off precisely on time. Barcelona is a big port and in 60 minutes you don’t get far, but we cruised east along the beach, then back to the central port, and got to inspect cruise ships and plutocrats’ giant yachts up close. There is no commentary on guide. Nonetheless a good value and a lovely way to spend a little time at sundown.
Lovely view of Barcelona from the sea. Nice sunny weather and a calm sea. The tour was all we wanted.
i bought tickets online. arriving there i had to go to the ticket office to pick up paper tickets. It must be possible to go to the boat with the digital tickets. The fotos are nice but too expensive, 10€ for all the fotos would be ok and not 10/ foto.
No guided tour, only a round trip to the bay. You should improve the tour adding a guide that explains everything
Great little boat trip around the med! Good value for money as well, definitely one to add to the list.
We loved it , for a family of 3, it was super nice and the staff is so friendly Will definitely do it again
At the ticket desk an on the ship, nice staff and good service. Not a good view of the city, mustly view of the port and ships (not as expected). Small snack bar on board, severe prices. Disabled friendly. Clean ship but toilet was terribly smelly and dirty all over the floor (seems like wasn't cleaned after each arrival). Wouldn't recommend, for another view of the city. I would prefer one the funiculars which I did try too.

Totally worth it. The experience was very good for three people who travelled: myself and my two brothers. The pricing has been decent for all three of us, and combined with the duration of an hour, it was torally worth it
If you buy a ticket online, you should exchange it in ticket box near dock. It was wavy. Some girls were screaming, but the crew calmed them down. Also you can buy snacks on board and enjoy the journey. We had one trip to deep sea and shorter one to along the port. It lasted a bit longer then 60 min.
What a fantastic open top boat ride, 60 minutes in total and it provides some fantastic views of the Hotel W, the Cruise Ships, Barcelonetta, and the port.. well worth the price! However, beware of doing this in the midday sun, as it will get hit! Staff were very friendly too, which was nice! 😀
Comfortable boat - very relaxing and calming and n the water. Great way to see the port of Barcelona - cafe on site stocked alcohol, soft drinks, coffee and snacks - all at good value
It’s a relaxing boat trip on Mediterranean along the coastline. Nice crew. No narration but we had already done a bus tour of the city with our Collette group.
So the Las Golondrinas 60-minute boat tour in Barcelona was an incredibly enjoyable and refreshing experience enjoyed my both myself and my minor son. As soon as we set sail from the harbor, the stress of the city melted away, replaced by a sense of calm as the sea breeze brushed my face. The view of Barcelona from the water was stunning — a unique blend of modern architecture and historic landmarks lining the coastline. The gentle rocking of the boat and the sound of the waves made it feel like a short escape into a different world. What really made the tour special was the chance to see the city from such a different angle, especially with the golden sunlight reflecting off the water. It was relaxing without being boring, and scenic without being overwhelming. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or you’ve lived in Barcelona for years, this boat ride offers a peaceful yet captivating way to experience the beauty of the Mediterranean. Highly recommend. I especially liked that it was a quiet tour lacking all the alcohol and the noise noted from other such cruises in the area.
Had a wonderful ferry ride.. got to see some great luxury yachts anchored at the harbour. Started off on time. And ended exactly 60 minutes later. It’s a large ferry with enough space for the passengers to stand in the open and take some great pictures. Loved every moment.
One hour tour. A great overview of the shore. Nice little site seeing from the water. Cash bar on board with ice cream
Excellent value and interesting trip. The staff were all very polite and explained where was the best seats to sit (at the front of the boat). There was a coffee shop on the boat which sold very cheap, very good coffee. We even got to wave at our sister and her husband on board the Seven Seas Navigator cruise ship, as we sailed up to and around it. All in all, a very pleasant hour on board.
We had a free day on our last day in Barcelona so we took the cruise in the morning. We walked down La Rambla from Catalunya. The cruise takes you around the bay to the cruise line area, yachts, and the coastline. Very pleasant staff, a nice break from walking. The staff is great!
The ride was smooth and the views were great. Enjoyed the serenity of the Mediterranean Sea. Good way to relax and enjoy the views.
Affordable, accessible service for a pleasant little tour of the Barcelona port area. I'd recommend it!
Las Golondrinas put together an excellent Mediterranean coastal water outing to admire Barcelona’s cityscape.
We booked a 60 min audio guided tour. The ride was quiet the whole time. We didn’t know what we were looking at all.
The gangway used 2 flimsy ropes for me and the others to hold onto when entering the boat. It should have been a much better quality gangway with a wall on each side of the versus a flimsy rope on each side. They care nothing about the passenger's safety.
It said there would be explanations of what we were seeing along the way but there was nothing but silence. Not even some music. Also we came within about 10 meters of ramming a large sailboat! I have owned my own sailboat and I know that the sailboat had the right of way in this case. Way too close for comfort! My wife was very scared and thought we’d be swimming back to shore. I hope the sailboat captain called the coarse guard and filed a complaint.
The tour was completely not memorable. There was no music or any information on what we saw as we passed the shore. It was cut short by at least ten minutes as well. In my humble opinion, a complete bust.
For this price point you get your money’s worth but there’s no real wow factor. After walking around the Gothic Quarter all day it was nice to get to sit down and have the wind blow on me for a while. The boat does have restrooms but I went on a 6p charter and there was no toilet paper by then. Maybe earlier in the day.
Great views of the shore and Port from the boat. Good to see the huge cruise ships up close. Nice to have refreshments on board.
There was no safety briefing, so no idea if there were life jackets or not. It was very rough and kids throwing up, no bags. Nothing to see, no clue what we were looking at. Would not do this again.
The 60 minute cruise was a nice sight seeing ride. The water was rather rough so the Captain stayed close to shore. In spite of the weather the cruise was a nice tourist attraction.
Just nice to get out on the water with sea breezes for an hour on a hot summer day! With the Americas Cup just start, it was good to spot a couple of the yachts.
The stands are very small,They should be kept slightly higher.Well, we had a lot of fun.Well, the interesting thing is that their tickets are very cheap
