The first time I took these buses and I was skeptical. But I changed my mind In one day we visited all of Barcelona, even going for a swim in the sea! Very convenient in that there is about a 20 min walk between one destination and another, so madness to do everything on foot You can get off and on whenever you want Super explanations! Only warning, for park Güell book the day before. Because otherwise you go up about 500 mt really tiring walk to be told to book online and there was room after 2h So to be safe book the day before online so you will get off when you have the reservation time The stops are clearly visible Very friendly staff Now in every city I go to visit I will book this very convenient tour!

We loved being able to enjoy the bus while doing our sightseeing all day long from 9:45 am to 7:45 pm (we took the bus closest to our apartment, only 10 min walk away) impeccable 😉. We had a great day, the staff on the bus are very pleasant, it's great to find people who speak all languages (at least ours 😉). They gave us good advice..... We recommend enjoying Barcelona this way for a day, it's perfect.....and not as tiring as it sounds because you can rest on the bus 🚌

Easy to book online. Can be used 24 hours or 48hours and starts from first boarding of bus rather than booking time. Can be carried over the following day within the time limit. Can stop and get back on along the various places of interest n either the green or the orange routes. Open top bus gives great views of the city. Multilingual audio guide within the bus is brilliant - headphones provided too. Sit back connect up and enjoy! We understand why takeaway drinks are not allowed but would have made it 5 ⭐️ for me.

    It is a good proposal ; interesting to be able to go down in the places of interest ; especially for those who do not know the public means of transportation ! It is necessary to be clear about the places you want to visit to plan where to get off ! There are places that can not be seen from the bus !

    Nice way to see the high lights of the city. The audio tour was fun, but also focused a lot on architecture which the kids found less interesting. Maybe offer a choice based on age or interest?

    Great service and the buses had AC and shade when upstairs. They come frequently too. The stops were convenient to see everything in barcelona.
  • East Route Green

    Hop on this route and get ready to dive into Barcelona’s artsy side. From modernist marvels to Gaudí’s greatest hits, this ride’s got it all. Sit back, relax, and let the bus do the heavy lifting while you cruise from Plaça Catalunya to the colorful wonderland of Park Güell. Oh, and did we mention the Sagrada Familia? Yeah, you’ll be gawking at that too – its façades are a storybook of symbolism.

    • Last bus: 7pm from stop 1 (Plaça Catalunya)

    • Frequency: Every 9-13 mins

    West Route Orange

    The West route (aka the orange line) goes beyond just Barcelona’s famous modernist wonders. You’re in for a treat! This path takes you to the far west side of the city, with must-see stops like the legendary FC Barcelona stadium and the National Museum of Art of Catalonia. Hop off at either museum, geek out on some culture, then hop right back on when you're done. Or, if you’re in the mood to chill, just sit back, relax, and soak up those sweet city views.

    • First bus: 9am from stop 1 (Plaça de Catalunya)

    • Last bus: 7pm from stop 1 (Plaça de Catalunya)

Catch interesting sights like the World Trade Center and the largest yachts in the city! The eco cruise also homes an exclusive bar service on board. Here you can buy wine, champagne & delicious snacks that you can relish as you take in the stunning views of the coast. The cruise is the best way to finish off your Barcelona tour as you've explored both its land and waters.
