Excellent experience with Lucie. 3h was perfect, we were four people with the guide. We discovered Barcelona differently, far away from usual touristy places, through a historical, architectural and social point of view. This will make you love Barcelona for sure. One of my best memories in Barcelona. Thank you Lucie :)

As a family of four we enjoyed the day tremendously. Lots of good info about what to do in Barcelona with 2 boys(8 & 10)
If you are considering booking a bike guided tour in Barcelona, don´t look any further than Barcelone a Velo! I totally recommend them. I didn´t know what to expect when I booked a guided tour with them for me and my family. Let me tell you, they exceeded my expectations and we all had a jolly good time. We saw parts of Barcelona that you wouldn´t normally venture to as a tourist, like the flee market and stopping for lunch in some quirky restaurant full of locals!! Wow, what an experience! Our guide was so friendly and flexible to our needs that we felt really relaxed and comfortable. They speak perfect English too! and shared load of insightful anecdotes of Barcelona and its history. Go! Go! Go! Barcelone a Velo! Thank you for such a good time!
Wonderful morning spent with our guide Hervé, who was very friendly! We didn't see the time pass. Hervé adapted to our group with children and shared many cultural and historical anecdotes with us without us feeling like we were in a history class! Would do it again without hesitation!
Thanks to Eponine and Lucie for the tour, which was interesting, informative, and fun at the same time. It was the best activity we did in Barcelona, discovering a part of the city off the beaten path and with class. I highly recommend it ++
Fantastic experience today thanks to our amazing guide Hervé! Discovering Barcelona by bike! A must-do! Passionate and knowledgeable, Hervé provided us with a captivating tour. THANK YOU for your time, kindness, and sharing! Ideal for teens and adults. A huge thank you! Wishing the whole team continued success!
Lucie is a passionate guide who knows her subject perfectly. We greatly appreciated this informative and peaceful stroll through neighborhoods we would never have visited alone. I highly recommend it.
Visited off the beaten track, delighted to discover a Barcelona different from the usual circuits.Eponîne is very friendly, has a lot of knowledge of both historical and Catalan society. Pleasant quality bikes. Very good time with family. Bravo!
Great experience with Lucie who told us the story of Barcelona in an exciting way. This is another way to discover the city through less touristy places. I loved it 🥰
To do absolutely!!! At the beginning of the stay ideally. This bike tour allows you to discover less touristic parts of Barcelona, but above all to really understand the city and its evolution, thanks to Lucie’s didactic and exciting explanations. Don't hesitate. Book. You won't be disappointed.
This bike tour is just perfect to discover Barcelona off the beaten track. JP explained the history of Barcino and took us to neighborhoods less popular with tourists.
Very nice early experience to discover different facets of the city with clear and very interesting explanations from Lucie our guide whose cultural knowledge of the city is incredible. I advise.
What a pleasant moment this unusual bike tour of Barcelona on August 5th! On site for 3 days, we started with this trip which allowed us, beyond the cultural&historical information on monuments-sites, to understand the evolution of the city and discover many neighborhoods in a relaxed way. Ideal to start your stay before visiting the Parc Güel, Montjuic and its Olympic site, the old town etc... Thank you to Jean-Pierre for this passionate sharing! Philip, Benedict and Clemency
I recommend, our guide Hervé was very pleasant and never short of anecdotes about this pretty city. You learn a lot, the three hours pass too fast. What to do
A beautiful electric bike ride guided by Jean Pierre, very friendly and very good guide who made us discover unexpected places in Barcelona. A very pleasant visit. Besides, the bikes were great. I recommend
We recommend this activity we had a great time. The guide was perfect, the visit and the information very interesting.
A beautiful discovery of Barcelona with Jean-Pierre pleasant and cultivated guide. Rich information on the history of Barcelona and the evolution of the city.
Super guide ! A faire entre amis ou en famille ! Une façon insolite de découvrir une ville ! Je recommande !
Very friendly and pleasant walk. We appreciated the enthusiasm, good humour and availability of our guide. We are delighted with our morning!
Moment rich in discoveries, which won the absolute unanimity of the family, including teenagers Off the beaten track, cultural immersion. Thanks to our great guide, jean pierre. To be redone
Really great activity to do with family! Lucie was an exciting, attentive and very nice Guide. She shared her passion for Barcelona and her encyclopedic knowledge of its history.
Thanks to Hervé for this unusual, rich and documented walk. We very much appreciated the places visits and the information provided. It was very nice.
Beyond our expectations! A MUST DO Another way to discover in complete safety and without much effort! (small group / cycle path / frequent stops) The walk was very enriching and never boring thanks to Chloé our exceptional historian guide who knew how to share all her knowledge and love of Barcelona with competence and humor! Thank you for this great time
Very pleasant activity to do in a group. Very friendly guide, activity which allows you to discover several facets of Barcelona with interesting explanations concerning its history. Approximately 15 km distance in 3 hours, numerous stops for photos and explanations. This is a change from crowded tours where you simply follow the guide with his flag. Easy level and leisurely speed without traffic level risks if you follow the highway code normally 😊 This was our group's favorite activity during the stay (long weekend).
Very pleasant bicycle tour, cultural, historical and social, a high quality guide "Hervé" who knows how to bring a personal touch to this visit via the cycle paths and small streets No need to be a trained cyclist.
Extra visit with an extra guide, Chloé. Made us discover neighborhoods off the tourist trail. In addition, she gives good historical summaries filled with little anecdotes! Very interesting!
Great visit. We discovered places where we would not have gone and with all the explanations, anecdotes... The walk is easy even when you are not very sporty. Thanks to our guide
We had a great afternoon visiting! The explanations, particularly on the transformation of the city and its architecture, were very interesting. The tour adapted to what we had already seen. A must do!!!
Great bike ride. Our 8 year old daughter had a blast. Very interesting and not at all tiring. We visit neighborhoods that we would not have done, very secure circuit as well as cycle paths. THANKS
Very good time spent together The walk is done peacefully while having good explanations about the neighborhoods visited. Commented poses enhance the outing Good walk !
A great walk in less touristy areas than those we usually discover, with very detailed and in-depth explanations given by Lucie. We were with our children aged 13 and 17 who also really enjoyed this bike tour. Thank you for this pleasant moment, to recommend without hesitation!
Very pleasant and nice bike ride to discover Barcelona in a different way! We were with our 9 and 11 year old boys and it was safe. Thank you very much to Lucie for her explanations throughout the walk, we learned a lot of things and her way of telling the story is very interesting.
Superb family walk with 2 teenagers aged 15 and 12 Lucie adapts her speech and her journey to her group We were able to stop for an ice cream in the best ice cream parlor in Barcelona Lucie introduced us to the history and life of the population of Barcelona Plus after the walk Lucie gives you good tips and good addresses I recommend 100%
It was really the best activity we did in Barcelona (a couple + an 11 year old child who discovered the bike team and loved it). Lucie really listened to our desires and showed us the city according to the interests of an 11 year old child. There was a little culture, a little history and all that with a lot of fun thanks to the kindness and good humor of Lucie. All 3 of us were won over and we will come back next year 😎
An exceptional guide just for the four of us. We visited Montjuïc and its Olympic facilities and learned a lot about the history of Barcelona.
If you hesitate between several tours operator for a visit of Barcelona to bike... do not hesitate, take this one. The guide showed us Barcelona’s past, present and aspirations and where the architects of this city: who – proves it with Gaudi – gives free rein to their wildest fantasies and how this influenced the city and its inhabitants. In short, more than delighted to have taken this walk on the 2nd day of our stay (out of 4), which allowed us to have a different view of the city during the other cultural visits. With bonus, a passionate and exciting guide!
The tour is nice, without difficulty and with passage in less touristic areas. And thank you to our guide, Julio, very friendly, competent and with explanations that allowed us to get to know Barcelona better. I highly recommend this outing. The Alsatian group
Easy and pleasant tour. Competent guide (francophone) and listening to participants. Busy circuit requiring the attention of cyclists. Helmet use could be proposed.
A great walk through the lesser known corners of Barcelona! The itinerary is very pleasant, accessible to all and punctuated by breaks during which the guide tells us the history of the city. Our extremely friendly guide shares these anecdotes and his vision of how Barcelona has evolved over the decades. I strongly advise everyone!!
Visiting these areas of Barcelona by bike allows you to quickly and fun (3 hours) to get some historical and architectural notions about the city, whether for a first glimpse or in addition to places that can be visited on foot (old town in particular). A very interesting guide, safe bike paths, I recommend this experience as much for a family as for a couple or a group of friends.
The bike tour covers a wide area of Barcelona in record time and the comments of our guide were very interesting to understand the history and evolution of the city. Thank you very much for this exciting discovery
Our guide was very welcoming, very enthusiastic. She made us share an unusual and authentic Barcelona with a very pedagogical approach. Very nice bike tour very safe with children. In short, a nugget not to be missed.
Great to start a stay in Barcelona we learn a lot and discover places we would have missed otherwise. Super nice guide ( Fiona). Thank you very much. 3h seems long but the pedaling speed is not very high and it passes very quickly.
An unforgettable experience , a big thank you to our guide who made us discover Barcelona and good restaurant addresses
A very nice visit with Lucie who knew how to explain the construction of Spain and Barcelona without too much head. A real success and always in a good mood. Bravo.
Excellent visit made by Eric who has a taste for history and anecdotes. Off the classic tourist trails, with good Catalan weather, it was the top! Thank you!!
Hervé has been a fantastic guide. He has made us discover the city off the beaten track, with just the level of history and knowledge necessary to understand the city today, and easily navigate it. Ideal to do at the beginning of your stay!
A great way to visit the city otherwise. Lucie our guide introduced us to another side of Barcelona, different, unusual and informative.
we took a private guided tour (a guide for my 2 teenagers and me) by bike from Barcelona. Very nice, because circuit completely secure and without any difficulty. Very interesting, the guide was top, with historical and cultural knowledge well beyond what I could read in the paper guides. We were able to see neighborhoods that we would not have had time to visit otherwise. Frankly, the best activity idea of our stay! I recommend +++
Thank you Hervé for this very informative ride. A fun and easy way to discover Barcelona otherwise. The activity pleased the whole family, the towbar for our 5 year old daughter was really practical, she felt like she was pedalling like everyone else without tiring us! I really recommend this activity with children, the path taken is accessible to all, our 8 year old daughter was always in mind, she loved it. The whole family was delighted with his morning.
