Great way to see almost everything then pick which places you would like to 'hop off'. Then just wait for the next bus to hop back on.

Takes you ALL over the city to every highlight and icon of the city. There are two routes that you can take. It was totally worth it and you will need the 2-Day Pass to see everything fully. Awesome tour!

By traveling on both the East and West routes, we saw all the highlights of Barcelona. Just wish we had more time to get off more than we did. But this is a great way to see everything when your time in Barcelona is short.

We had a great time in Barcelona thanks to the Hop on Hop off Tour. It allowed us to discover the city and later select the places we wanted to visit most. We took a two day tour and we will recomend it to everyone visiting the city for the first time or even if you go back, we will use it again.

Hop On Hop Off is a very good idea to a round of the town. I'm very happy, good experience. We see maximum, in minimum time.

Great that you can stop and go when and where you want. You also get different view of things from top of bus. Had 2 day ticket and used it to the full going back on the bus in the evening to view things in a different light...Brilliant

Best way to see the city! Great value for the price & the routes provided quick access to all of the hot spots we wanted to see. Be sure to map out your activities with siesta and closing times in mind. The busses run so frequently you have virtually no down time standing around waiting. The audio provides great information, however the earbuds are standard and a bit uncomfortable - consider bringing and using your own set along for comfort. Just wish it ran later in the evening - but if you plan it right and conserve your energy, walking back to your hotel later in the evening from your last stop is a safe and enjoyable way to take in the nightlife.

A good bird's eye view of Barcelona's attractions and a good way to help tourists plan what they do want to see in more depth.
The audio guide was great.
Would recommend a new stop - at the TOP of Parc Guell so people could walk DOWN through it and then catch the bus again at the bottom/

We really enjoyed our tour. The bus stop was across the street from our hotel. The tour covered all of the attractions in Barcelona. We found that the bus was also in many of the cities we were going to so we used it again in Naples.

This is a terrific tour and probably the best way to see the City, especially if you only have a couple of days. But even if you have more time, I would recommend doing it as you see all the major attractions and can pick the ones you want to come back to on other days, or spend the rest of your time doing other things. We initially booked the one day tour, but half way through the day upgraded to the two day tour because it was so great, and the two tours are on completely different sides of the City so you really do get to see everything and learn a lot about the City and its history. The buses come frequently so if you only want to hop off and take a few pics, you don't have to wait long for the next bus to come and you can hop back on, or if you want to stay somewhere for a couple of hours you can do that too. We never waited more than about 10 mins for a bus. The workers on the buses are all young so tend to goof off a bit, but are nice and friendly and helpful if you have questions. No food is included but there are usually food options at each stop (and you can ask one of the workers on board where would be the best place to stop and eat). The only gripe I have is that I booked the day I arrived in Barcelona via my iPad and didn't have access to a printer to print out the confirmation, and even though I brought the confirmation number with me to the bus the next morning, I was told I must have the print out. The person at the bus stop directed us to the main office (which was only a few blocks away), but they would not let us print out our confirmation there and were actually quite rude about it. Fortunately there was a place a few doors down where we could check email and print, but it was a bit of a hassle. Overall a great experience for good value, I would highly recommend.

.Sit upstairs to get the best views - but it can get a it chilly! Downstairs facing backwards is not advised! Excellent tour though, very helpful guides on the bus and the commentary was just right. Probably the best way to visit the whole city.

Heerlijke manier om je 2 dagen uren door de stad te laten rondrijden en waar het interessant is (en dat is veel in Barcelona) stap je uit. Er rijden zoveel bussen dat je er nooit lang op hoeft te wachten.
Vriendelijke chauffeurs, en hostesses. Duidelijke nederlandse uitleg van wat je ziet.

We really enjoyed the tour and fully recommend this way to see Barcelona. We did the tour bus in Paris and also Barcelona and this one in Barcelona was by far superior. The commentary is very informative, the buses regular and the drivers and cashiers helpful. both routes were excellent and I would say that 2 days is not enough time to see everything

It was my first visit to Barcelona and this Hop-On-Hop-Off Tour was the best idea any one could have recommended. I suggest to do the full route first to see all the places you can visit and then make the stops on and off. There are so many places to visit that if you don't have much time you may miss the ones you really wanted to see; plus you get familiarized with the route and where the stops are.
The bus' staff was very nice and helpful.

excellent, we did both routes and they were informative and very enjoyable.
Only I thought I had booked for 2 days and was told by ticket collecter only 1 day, so I do not know if the booking site was not specific enough or my error.

The weather was extremely hot and like in many other cities (e.g. Oslo) the tour organizers should be kind enough to offer us something to drink!!!
It was a long journey and we were not able to purchase water during the stops. I was very much thirsty and was about to fade away after 4 hours!!!

I was disappointed with the audio system. It was hard to keep it in my ear, and it was hard to understand the dialog. I would have preferred a live guide the way it is in NY.

We wish the price of the hop on hop off could have included entrance into the cathedral. I have a problem with Churchs charging money to see the inside. Even at the Vatican you do not pay a fee.
