Itinerary
1
Port Olimpic
Built for the 1992 Olympic Games, this shining white marina transformed Barcelona's coast and is full of bars, clubs and modern sculptures... like Frank Gehry's golden fish. Renovated in 2024, it's a stunning place to start and end our tours.
15 minutes
2
El Poblenou
This former industrial district is full of treasures, such as modern parks, neoclassical cemeteries, street art, "superblocks", and dazzling new architectural projects. Its quieter than the centre and ideal for cycling around. Most of our tours pass by this district.
45 minutes
3
Torre Agbar
This phallic-shaped wonder is one of the most iconic buildings in Barcelona. We marvel at its multi-hued exterior and discuss the modernisation of the city.
10 minutes
4
Los Encantes Barcelona
We often stop off at this charming old flea market and shop for kitsch souvenirs, or stop for a snack. The entire area has been revitalised in recent years.
30 minutes
5
Parc de la Ciutadella
This gorgeous park is named after the citadel that once sat here. We explore its many points of interest, including a fountain partially-designed by Gaudi, and get some oxygen in our lungs.
20 minutes
6
El Born
We love to show travellers the hidden back streets of the Born district, full of secrets, boutiques, artisan shops and cosy cafes.... the central 'square' used to be a medieval jousting ground!
30 minutes
7
Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar
On most tours we pass by this sensational Gothic masterpiece and admire the rose-window façade, before exploring the rest of El Born.
10 minutes
8
Playa de La Barceloneta
No cycle ride in Barcelona is complete without a ride along the beach. We normally reserve this route for the way home, enjoying the sun on our faces and the carnival atmosphere of this crazy playa.
