Barcelona: 4-Hour Off-the-Beaten-Track Small Group Bike Tour

On this unique tour of Barcelona, you will escape touristville and go on a wondrous journey to explore the real identity of the Catalan capital, beyond its Modernista façades and overcrowded Old Town. There is no fixed itinerary of over-trodden sights. Rather, your passionate local guide is your friend for the day, revealing their Barcelona to you. Each tour features at least one refreshment stop, sometimes two, which might be taken at a local food market, a tapas bar, a bodega, orxateria or even street food kiosk. 

You will dip into hip and Bohemian neighborhoods like El Born, Raval, Gracia, Eixample, and Poblenou. See their picturesque plazas, back streets ripe with swashbuckling histories, and contemporary street art, flea markets full of local characters, skyscrapers and fascinating urban parks. On a sunny day, you will likely visit the bustling city beaches with their Carnival-esque vibe.

Exploring in a small group of maximum 8 guests, plus guide, has several advantages. it is easier to get around, there is more opportunity to engage with the guide, and it is a sustainable approach to tourism. This award-winning tour has been a pioneer of local, sustainable tourism since 2010, and recommended by Lonely Planet, The Guardian, Barcelona Life, and many more international and local media.
