Barcelona E-bike Tour By Night & Magic Fountain Show

Supposed to be a 2-hour ride. Gave us a only 1 small bottle of water and didn’t stop for more, during an almost 3-hour ride. Supposed to “meet at the fountain” in Plaza Real-very cool spot. Guide had NO way of being spotted-no flag, T-shirt, company name on his hat-just stood there. Even as we stood near him, he didn’t approach us (we were 5, all quite obviously looking around- so you think he’d have guessed we were his group-?). We and 4 other riders had to walk a few streets away to get to our bikes. We rode through VERY crowded streets- ok, but often hard to keep up with a group of 10, and hard to maneuver. The guide -seemed like a good guy, but was not a good guide, in this case-would stop here and there and talk about a site-but at least 8/10 times we couldn’t hear him due to traffic, not being able to get close, him not speaking loudly enough. He spoke English well, but accent was very hard to overcome in that situation. We got almost zero information. We didn’t stop for photos, til the fountain-NO planned stops, not even for sunset pictures (as was mentioned in the description), photos of our family on the bikes, photos at ANY of the monuments we drove near or stopped at, not even in front of the art museum, except when we FINALLY got to the Magic fountain-after fighting through very packed crowds by the cruise area, after one woman’s bike battery died, after we had to go a longer way because a gate he’d intended to use was locked, and after we had to take our bikes down 2-3 escalators -!- & a long staircase (that was ridiculous!). Stayed at fountain maybe 10 min; left via a dark road that didn’t feel quite safe (and then also down other streets that didn’t, in the dark)-then ran right into a HUGE, wild crowd. They neglected to plan around the massive Gay Pride event—super fun, but not when you’re trying to follow 9 others on bikes through waves of partying people, spilling drinks on our feet as we fought the crowds. NOT a good time. We drove back to the plaza on the very busy main streets-cool for us, but definitely not expected, and not for everyone. Hard to keep up through the lights and crowds; 4 missed the last turn because it was too crowded and the guide was too far ahead to see—he assumed we’d know where to go, & that we’d catch up, I guess? Then had to ride a few extra blocks to the shop. missed our dinner reservation. Should’ve had a van pick up the bikes at the magic fountain and ended it there, or cut out a few of the points.

This was a really cool tour! Our tour guide didn't give us a ton of information on the tour and we would have liked more! The electric bikes were a cool feature and the sunset views were great!

Good tour, but was a little hard keeping up as the group size was fairly large

We're avid cyclists, but this was our first time on electric bikes. What fun! The bike really does most of the work for you, which was good because this tour has lots of hills and great views. Our guide was friendly, informative, and was attentive to the group's safety. After viewing the fountain show, the crowd gets really thick when making your way out of the area, so much so that you have to walk the bikes for a block or two. All-in-all a great tour and would recommend it.

A great way to see Barcelona. The electric bikes were easy to use and a fun way to get around town. Some places would have been great to see with more daylight but the Magic Fountain is a must see!

Really fun and great way to see the city at night. We rode for about five miles along the waterfront and around the city. If you have never ridden an eBike, they are a blast! Magic fountain was a great ending to the ride led by Marco, our excellent guide.
