What To Expect

Simply hop aboard the open-top, double-decker City Sightseeing bus and set off to explore the ancient, medieval and modern sights of beautiful Barcelona.

Sit back into your comfortable seat and enjoy the 360-degree views and informative onboard audio commentary as you weave your way through Barcelona's elegant avenues, pretty squares, medieval lanes and palm-lined waterfronts.

Switch between the different bus routes as you wish to explore different areas and aspects of the city, or stay aboard for the full loop to gain an overview of the city’s sights and landmarks.

When you’re ready, hop off at any of the conveniently located stops and explore the attractions on foot, at your leisure. Perhaps meander around the medieval alleys of the Gothic Quarter; stop off to visit the extraordinary UNESCO-World Heritage-listed La Sagrada Familia church designed by the late, great architect Antoni Gaudi; or soak up the lively atmosphere, shops and street theater along the vibrant Las Ramblas.

Alternatively, hop off to visit some of Barcelona’s cultural hotspots or to take a stroll around Port Olímpic, the picturesque palm-dotted marina crowned by a giant copper fish sculpture by Frank Gehry. These are just a sprinkling of the many things you can see and do during your hop-off hop-on tour!

 Your City Sightseeing pass gives you unlimited travel on all routes for your choice of one or two days. Buses depart from each stop regularly throughout the day. See the Itinerary for a list of stops on each of the routes.

CarolAnn_B, Sept 2023

Multiple op-on-hop-off bus companies in Barcelona, like that this one had 2 routes included in the cost of one ticket.

Get to know Barcelona the easy way!

Judy, Sept 2023

This great tour gives you all day access to the city. One can get on & off at any stop. We chose to stay on bus to get familiar with city again. Viewing on the second level upstairs is the best.

Not my favorite hop on hop off tour

Jennifer_C, Sept 2023

We typically get a hop on hop off bus while on vacation, it allows us to see highlights without stopping at every one of them. This tour didn't seem linked up to the right site, we also had a really hard time finding stops, so we just started at #1. I would pass when going again.

Quick Guide to Barcelona

Steven_M, Sept 2023

A flight cancellation by United Airlines cost us one of our planned days in Barcelona but the bus gave us a quick way to see much of the city. It was convenient and the audio guide was a great way to learn about the city.

Not impressed!

Geraldine_C, Sept 2023

Found it impossible to find the right bus stop! Walked for miles with no success. In the end we got a taxi to Sagrada Familia. It should be noted that there are other bus tours. This is the Turisti one which wasnt clear on the booking. A map of the route on the website would be useful. Perhaps we missed the stop at Barcelona Triomph railway station but we didn’t know what sign to look for.

Awesome tour! A must!

Abelardo_B, Sept 2023

Great experience! Lots of information! Great views! We rode the bus on the top and it was awesome! We for sure recommend it!

Refund

TracyW_R, Sept 2023

Bus was very busy. Never activated our purchase. We would like a refund! What else can I say. 2 bus were so fully we could get on so we had to walk back to the port!

Trip

Michael_G, Sept 2023

Tour was great except for the fact it was difficult to know where you were in the tour,, the stops need numbers so you can track easily on the map

Nice views

Rose_C, Sept 2023

Great way to see the beauty of Barcelona. Lots of busses and never waited long for a bus. Great value.

Great highlights & friendly staff!

Amy_C, Sept 2023

Great way to see all the highlights of Barcelona!! Staff was so friendly & helpful when having questions.

Bad experience - Hop-On-Hop-Off Barcelona

moproiu, Sept 2023

The bus should not have been in service. It was raining and the top will not even close. The driver was very rude; stops and starts were very abrupt. We were forced to change buses after a couple of stops in a pouring rain.

Hop on Hop off tour

Winston_Y, Sept 2023

it was an informative tour and you get a good feel for the city, also it was easy to get on and off at each stop

Hop on Hop off is BEST value for first timer with little time to waste

Syd_J, Sept 2023

First timer to Barcelona so knew wanted hop on hop off Sept 23 but had "dickens of a time" finding where the bus routes originated or stopped. No map made available on routes at payment so was left struggling to find where to get on. Unluckily for me, the tickets issued to me and my lawyer husband were lost as I photographed the city (presumably) and my original voucher meant nothing to bus administrator as I tried to utilize the Turisme routes to optimum advantage. As a tour guide in another Olympic city - Atlanta in 1996 - I was particularly impressed with how well Barcelona's Olympic history was incorporated in the tour audio. Quality of the audio was excellent in content presented and as a 36 hours in city tourist, the City Sightseeing Barcelona was excellent (except for access and useage issues). What a great city you have to share!

Very difficult to reach...

William_M, Sept 2023

Very difficult to reach the starting point. Had to travel 30 minutes before we reached the starting point. Also hard to find bus. Very crowded. Would not recommend.

Only One Day In Barcelona

Rhonda_P, Sept 2023

This was perfect if you only have 24 hours to see the city. We were able to see all of the highlights and jump off to explore a little more. The buses ran every few minutes so the waits were short. The hardest part was finding the first pickup spot. Once we found it, the day was a breeze.

Great way to see the highlights

Caleb_W, Sept 2023

Over all it was a great way to see the city. We only had one day in Barcelona so it was a great way to see the highlights and now we want to come back and experience Barcelona in depth next time.

Not what we expected

godwithus240, Sept 2023

It was ok. Wish that we could of stopped and took better pictures. It toured around too fast, Narrating was bad and driver wasn’t friendly.

Two day ticket

Kelly_H, Sept 2023

We rode both routes and feel that we saw the majority of Barcelona’s sites on the first day which helped us plan our excursions for day two.

Numbered stops needed!

Lorraine_B, Sept 2023

This hop on bus was disappointingly hard to use as stops were named in rapid Spanish and not numbered which made working out navigation difficult.Aircon was not good!

Good experience

Gail_Y, Sept 2023

Good way to get around city. Helpful staff. Good way to see city of Barcelona and the sights and different neighborhoods.
