Very good option to see Barcelona in 1 day. We did both routes. They give you headphones and you listen to data from the places you see. The waiting music was too much for us, but hey. You can get off at any stop and take the next bus that passes. There is always room even upstairs.

A great way to take in an overview of the city on two routes and decide which attractions you wish to explore further. Buses were clean,, arrived at stops promptly, easy to catch, and the drivers were good at their job. The audio guide was good but at times just played music that went on and on. More facts about Barcelona could have been provided and would have been more interesting. Highly recommend the red hop on hop off bus to all new visitors to Barcelona. Excellent value.

We travelled the green route in its entirety first, got off and had lunch then jumped back in to see the orange route. A must see on the green route is the Sagrada Familia, and the bust stops just across the street from it! The orange print took us to a Montjuïc and the Tram ride over the Port of Barcelona which was awesome and My hubby's favorite! We tried the other bus company and we're very disappointed to be told we were late at the bus stop so we can't use our ticket. We had a 2-day ticket and it said the last tour was at 7pm and we tried to "hop on" for an afternoon ride before 5pm!!. We sat down and had coffee and saw their other bus leave the bus stop!!! Why didn't they tell us we could have hopped on the other bus?!!

Easy to use, you can hop on the bus at any of their stops, once you are on there is someone watching to scan your electronic ticket and issue you with a paper version, headphones for an audio guide on the bus which has 15 languages and a map should you chose this. It is really easy to use, just remember which buses to look for as there are 2 different lines which cover different routes. This bus is red and follows a green and orange route. Great value for money and you can get on and off when you like. Buses run all day from 9am-8pm ish. It is great to see the city and worth a 2 day ticket.

Well managed tour.. covers almost all of the main attractions. My suggestion would be to go with a two day trip in case you want to spend time at all locations. Many of them need some spending time. The audio guide is very good and worth plugging into.

The hop on/off bus was very handy in getting around Barcelona, especially to and from la Sagrada Familia and Park Guell (green line). We did not utilize the catamaran option because we were too busy with other activities and the tangerine line, with its Olympics venues, was of limited interest to us because we covered the area on a separate tour of Montserrat with Barcelona highlights.

Every city break I go on i make sure to explore the city on a hop on hop off bus because it's the best was of finding out interesting facts and see all the hidden gems of the city. I'm so glad I booked a 48 hours ticket as there were 2 different routes to explore. I had plenty of time to visit attractions at most stops during the 2 days of using hop on hop off. Definitely recommended.

Although very busy, it moved quickly and safely. Don’t loose your paper ticket. Even though you have electronic confirmation of purchase they only let you on with the paper version. If you loose it you’ll have to pay 1/2 the fare in order to continue.

It was good overall , but compared to the one I rode in Paris, the narrated content was not as good. The content should be expanded with more information and be better timed to when we are actually approaching the locations being explained. Also, there should be clearer documentation of how to get to the locations from the busstops. At Park Guell, we struggled to find the park, and then when we left the park from a different gate, it took us a long time to find the bus stop.

Bud ride was air conditioned on bottom and has audio giving information on landmarks. Up too can get a bit hot in the sun but the views are nice. Buses come every 15 minutes or so. Catamaran trip is ok. Views are nice but it is quite short (1 hour). The bus stop for Parc Guell is a bit of a hike so wear comfy shoes.
