Ella was a fantastic guide. - Ella was phenomenal. She was very accommodating for everyone. We had a group of 10 and I noticed everyone felt great about her guidance and support during our 4 hour bike tour.

So fun! - We had a fantastic time seeing so much of Barcelona via Bike. We were mostly on the bike paths and felt very safe. Ale was great. She took us to some of her favorite spots, including a place with amazing graffiti art. She even brought cans of spray paint so we could add our own art to the space. It was such an unexpected and very fun surprise! Overall, we highly recommend this tour. It was a great way to see the city.

Excellent private e-bike tour! - I can’t recommend Steel Donkey Bicycle Tours enough, especially if you get Alejandra as your guide! We did a private tour, and she went above and beyond to customize the experience for us. Alejandra was incredibly knowledgeable about Barcelona’s history, culture, and hidden gems. She was friendly, approachable, and gave us fantastic recommendations for things to do and places to visit (or avoid) during our stay. It felt like we were exploring the city with a local friend rather than a guide. We will definitely book another tour with her when we return to Barcelona!

Highly recommend! - Excellent guide who was able to read the group and provide personalized responses to everybody’s needs. We had a small group consisting of eight people. Two couples and one family with elementary aged children. Our tour was very well paced and provided great insight into all the areas we visited in Barcelona. We would recommend this trip to anyone!

October Sunny Sunday - Our guide Bella was excellent and very informative. A great insight into some Barcelona history without it being a boring history lesson. Very relaxing as it was a very flat route. A great way to see Barcelona in 4 hours that passed by so quickly. Get off the bus and get on the bike. Highly recommended!!

Great tour - Great service - Tour was very good - visited areas we would not have gone to on our own. Guide was knowledgeable and accommodating. We had some scheduling issues and the company was very flexible in helping us make something work.

Barcelona fun - We love bicycling as a way to see a city. You can cover more ground than by walking, and bike tours almost always give you insights into hidden nooks and crannies, and fun local spots. This trip was perfect for that. Our tour guide, Bella, did a great job and introduced us to several neighborhoods in central Barcelona, provided great tips (and maps) for places to eat, shop and explore. Highly recommended!

5/5 Must for First Timers - Such an awesome tour with Augustine as a wonderful guide! Loved that the tour was small and we were able to really tour through the streets of Barcelona's beautiful neighborhoods. Great communication/information throughout the tour, with safety first. Highly recommend for a tour in Barcelona!
