Shore Excursion: Barcelona City Tour Hop-On Hop-Off
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
No matter what cruise ship you arrive on, this is the perfect do-it-yourself shore excursion in Barcelona. This double-decker open-top bus tour can be met at the Port of Barcelona (Port Olímpic - stop 3), which is a 15-minute walk from the cruise terminals. A hop-on hop-off tour is the best way for cruise passengers to get around the city. Get a bird's-eye view of the cobbled medieval streets of Las Ramblas, discover the Port Olímpic beachfront promenade, see the famous F.C. Barcelona Football Stadium and much more.
You can hop on and off the tour as many times as you like aboard this sliding-roof double-decker bus. There are two tour routes, the Green Route and the Orange Route, and they are interconnected so you can easily hop between them to discover the best of Barcelona while your ship is in port. Your ticket is valid on BOTH routes.

1.00This event was cancelled at the last minute so very disappointed as waste of time & money ( for taxi to get there & back). Communication from the company was good although I don’t understand why the cancellation was discovered so late!

5.00It was a great way to see Barcelona in a short period of time. We were on a cruise so only had one day. The two routes cover the entire city. We never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes for a bus. I highly recommend it.
See the entire city of Barcelona at a glance!

5.00The bus tour gives you the opportunity to see the whole city of Barcelona in a couple of hours. You get to stop andjump off and where you want. Definitely sit on the top to truly enjoy the ride and the views!
