On this fabulous 4-hour tour, you’ll explore all the architectural marvels, legendary landmarks, and bohemian neighborhoods of this unforgettable city, taking in everything from temples to parks via squares, arches, and beaches.

Your top-quality tuk tuk tour kicks off with a visit to one of Barcelona’s most iconic landmarks - the resplendent red brick Arch of Triumph, built to mark the entrance to the grand Barcelona World Fair of 1888.

Next, you’ll glide to the Bullring, the last commercially operated bullfighting arena in Catalonia known to the locals as La Monumental.

Once you’ve laid eyes on this magnificent masterpiece, your memory of the Sagrada Familia is sure to be indelible.

Journeying on, your premium tuk tuk tour transports you to La Pedrera, also known as Casa Milà. Another masterpiece of Antoni Gaudí, Casa Milà is a whimsical visual delight, astounding visitors with its ‘wobbly’ exterior and fascinating art enthusiasts with its heritage as the final private residence designed by Gaudí before his passing.

Continuing your dive into the artistic legacy left behind by this magnificent architect, you’ll discover Casa Batlló, an enchanting Gaudí creation nicknamed ‘The House of the Dragon’ because of the undulating rows of metallic blue tiles that resemble the scales of a magical beast. The eagle-eyed will also be able to spot nods to the legend of Saint George the dragon-slayer (and the patron saint of Catalonia) on the building’s facade.

Your adventure will now begin to explore Barcelona’s vibrant squares, starting with Catalonia Square, regarded as the ‘nerve center’ of the city. This bustling hub exudes cultural vitality and features notable statues by Clarà and Llimona.

Next, discover Nou Camp, the immense stadium home to the Catalonia national soccer team and FC Barcelona, where thousands flock to cheer on their players in a sport which the Spanish are notoriously passionate about. This stadium is truly extraordinary - with the ability to seat over 99,000 spectators, the Nou Camp is the fifth-largest soccer stadium in the world and the stadium with the largest capacity in all of Spain and Europe.

Let your guide lead you onwards into the leafy neighborhood of Pedralbes, famous for its gorgeous avenues, grand villas, and the world-famous Güell Pavilions - ornate and colorful mosaic gatehouses designed by Antoni Gaudí. It’s one of the city’s most iconic spots!

Breezing through the business district of Barcelona, known as Francesc Macia, admire the grand buildings that line this impressive square as your tuk tuk carries you to the stunning Spain Square, surrounded by iconic structures like the Venetian towers, Bullring, and the Fira de Barcelona.

As you venture into Montjuïc, named after the Latin and Catalonian for ‘Jewish Mountain’, you’ll be rewarded with grand vistas of the beautiful city of Barcelona. Your electric tuk tuk makes easy work of the journey up to this stunning hill whereupon a treasure trove of cultural and historical gems await discovery, including the castle, Olympic Ring, Poble Espanyol, Magic Fountain, and botanical gardens.

The nimble tuk tuk is the perfect vehicle for navigating these labyrinthine medieval streets with ease, allowing you to simply enjoy the ambience.

You’ll sense the invigorating sea breeze as you ride into the coastal enclave of La Barceloneta, renowned for its serene beaches ideal for both surfing and sunbathing.
