Great tour - If you want an ebike tour with a guide that is very knowledgable about the city history and in particular the architecture then Jean-Pierre is your man. He took is all over the city from high points to low. The tour lasted 5 hours. In as much as he could we stayed on less traveled routes but did not rush us if the going got tough. This tour will probably be one of the high points of our European vacation.

Fabulous tour!!! - Jean-Pierre was a fabulous guide!! Encyclopaedic knowledge about everything Barcelona, and a really nice guy too. Very friendly, really good humour and a joy to spend half a day with, though we wish it had been for even longer. Brilliant tour, covered so much ground and felt completely safe with Jean Pierre looking after us. Would definitely recommend to anyone! Don’t use anyone else, honestly, absolute joy and spent the whole tour smiling. Thank you so much, Jean Pierre, it was wonderful!! We look forward to next time and hope we can be guided by you again. If we could award 6 stars, we would!!

Excellent tour through many parts of the city. - We had a wonderful tour. Our tour guide, Jean-Pierre, was fantastic. We saw so much of Barcelona on the eBike and he was very knowledgeable about each of our stops; especially the architectural history of the city. I strongly recommend Jean-Pierre and this tour for a great overview of many parts of Barcelona.

Super excellent ebike tour with nothing to blame - This tour is excellent. We are delighted to have Jean-Pierre as our guide and he takes us to all the places we want to go. Great communication. Great tour arrangements. In private group, more flexibility to wait, to take photos, to stop, to ask questions. Great ebike rental that i can get a really small ebike that suitable for my 1.5m height. I have compared some different ebike tour before choosing this one. I chose this one because this is a private tour and the cost of this private tour is not really much higher than the others. Beware that most other claimed small group tour might have at most 8-14 participants and that might affect the schedule. It is really trustworthy to take a private tour to avoid risk of joining a big size tour and affecting tour experience. When we booked this tour, they only got a few reviews that may make me hesitate as some other big operators were having thousands reviews. But after booking and participating in this tour, i completely satisfied and glad that i chose this tour. Do not afraid of limited amount of reviews for this tour and it worth you a try. I strongly hope that their reviews number can grow upon time and i believe this experience might worth even better rating compared with other big operators' experiences.

A Got to do in Barcelona - Bike tour was fun. Road on some busy streets which made it exciting. Also did go up some hills to the electric bike was most helpful. The guide was great and watched over us. If you got away from the group for some reason he found you. Recommend this tour.

Fantastic Historical E-bike Tour in Barcelona - This was a fantastic e-bike tour. The guide was very energetic and super knowledgeable - he would have kept touring beyond the time but we had to get back for another appt at our hotel. The ebikes were great. I would highly recommend this tour!

Great time for a solo traveler - Amazing!! My plans fell through with the friend I was traveling with so last minute I decided to see the city by bike. I didn´t feel confident enough to just ride around by myself so I decided to do a guided tour. The guide I got, Jean-Pierre, was not only super knowledgeable but was also just a great guy to hang out with for the morning. When I told him I hadn´t eaten before the tour, he quickly modified our planned route to get me to one of the best pastry shops in Barcelona. In the end, I saw so much of the city and learned alot about its history that I wouldn´t have if I had been on my own. I can´t say enough about this experience, highly recommend!!
