About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- T9872HTamyc0 contributionsBrilliant way to see a lot of BarcelonaFour friends who had never segway'd before, and we had the brilliant Davide as our guide. Although we were all a bit nervous to start, Davide was kind and patient during our practice laps in the local park, then we set off to explore Barcelona. Perfect mix of local knowledge/history, sight-seeing, couple of short breaks to have a rest and coffee, and some excellent recommendations (Vinitus was perfect, thank you!). Lots of love from us all to Davide, great guide!! Good luck with your new life in Barcelona :)Written 30 September 2024
- Gr8Cate780 contributionsThe BEST tour!The BEST thing to do in Barcelona! This was amazing! Our guide, Pablo, was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Starting at the Arc De Triomf, we had a great tour of the city stopping at La Sagrada Familia and seeing other Gaudi buildings, the Olympic Village, the zoo, shopping and dining areas and the beach. We are over sixty but felt perfectly safe on the Segway. It was a well-paced ride and great fun!Written 16 September 2024
- Debbie G0 contributionsBeautiful BarcelonaSteve did a wonderful job of taking us to the sights we wanted to see and giving us great information. We had two first time Segway riders with us and they loved it. I highly recommend a Segway to zip through Barcelona.Written 16 September 2024
- Freedom2228290 contributionsAmazing new skill learntOur Guide and trainer was patient and brilliant in her teaching method. We were a little scared to go on the Segway, but she encouraged and supported us incredibly well. We ended up loving the entire 2 hour tour and left feeling exhilarated that we’d accomplished a new skill. Thank you 😊Written 30 August 2024
- I9178ONjv0 contributionsBeautiful way to see Barcelona.We booked a tour and came a bit late (had to find a parking spot) we got a good explanation beforehand from our tour guide Linda and then we went to the park. We quickly got the hang of it and went away. We saw some nice places of Barcelona with detailed explanations from her. I can recommend this to everyone! We booked a trip of hour we were really sad when it was over. Experience 10, Linda 10.Written 23 August 2024
- Margaret W0 contributionsSegway highlight.This was my first time on a Segway, I was nervous but thanks to Arnav I was able to go my 2 hour tour. I must say Arnav was very patient, friendly and most willing to help at all times needed. His explanation of the layout of the old capital was well explained in detail. I would recommend him for first timers and got any tour necessary. A great shout out to Arnav!!!!!!!!!!Written 6 August 2024
- A6864NQlindaf0 contributionsFantastic and fun tourWe had Paul as our tour guide and he was so pleasant and good at telling us about the sights. Even though Barcelona is a very busy city to do a segway tour in we felt very safe and it was so much fun to ride through the streets. Would absolutely recommend this tour :-)Written 17 July 2024

- 737diannar0 contributionsGreat experienceWe did the bike tour of Montjuic Hill and Gothic Quarter. Our guide Oriele was friendly and very informative. Would highly recommend the tour and Oriele.

- FremontSue0 contributionsFabio is Fabulous!We have been fortunate to have ridden Segways in many different parts of the world. We have found it to be a great and easy way to cover a lot of territory without having to walk miles and miles and miles. Our experience with Fabio on the Gaudi Segway tour was fabulous! He was so knowledgeable, encouraging, and positive. We appreciated Fabio taking several photos of us (using our mobile phone) during our time together. His kindness and goodness radiated forward and it was a a pleasure to be in his presence. Fabio’s enthusiastic love for Barcelona shown through and was contagious. Well done, Fabio!Written 29 April 2024

We booked the Olympic Tour and got bumped onto a general tour which was disappointing because that wasn’t what we wanted to see. When I mentioned it to our guide about at least seeing the Olympic Stadium she told me it was in Madrid! (Seriously.) Happily took our money. Unhappy outcome.

Booked for four of us to do the tour and pleased we had the guide to ourselves for 90 minutes ! Our guide Tomas was very patient explaining how to use the Segway. He took us down to the beach and around the park area on the Segway. Highly recommend this tour.

If you want to see Barcelona and have fun doing it a Segway is the way to go. We did it with the entire family and had a blast. Oriol was a great tour guide showing us the beautiful city of Barcelona. It is a great way to start a holiday to see where you want to go for the rest of it.

I have done a few Segway tours in various cities; it’s one of my favourite things to do on a trip. This was without doubt one of the best. And the main reason for that was the guide - Willy. He was knowledgeable and informative, but better than that he was fun so it was great to spend a couple of hours in his company. We saw so much of the city and it was fantastic. I really can’t recommend this company, or Willy highly enough. Do a tour with them - you won’t regret it!

I was worried before the trip that I would not be able to use the Segway machine, because they look so big. However, our guide, Catja, gave us a tutorial before stepping on the machine and then showed us how to use it and gave us a chance to practice before setting out on the tour. It was very easy to learn how to use and took in a very short period of time, I felt very comfortable on it. This was a tour with myself, spouse and teenage daughter. We toured the beach area, the Barcelona Arc de Triomf, and a park with a special fountain. It was a group of just my family and the tour guide so we had a very personalized experience. Catja even took pictures of us on our phones at the different areas. Thank you for this unique experience.

First time using a segway, It was great fun, but this experience its totally powered by Willy, this catalan-american guy that makes the trip really fun. He is constantly joking but at the same time very professional, with a great knowledge of the city. Ask for him. We also did some segway street racing... I won. Proofs in photo.

Our tour guide Philip was WONDERFUL and very knowledgeable of the history of Barcelona. He explained the reconstruction of Barcelona from a manufacturing city to a 'beachfront port'. He told us about Christopher Columbus as well as giving us a guided tour of the Olympic sites! The artifacts and beautiful architecture of Barcelona are a sight to see! Philip was patient with us as he showed us the 'safe' way to ride the segways!
It was a beautiful day! Be sure to check out this once in a lifetime adventure!
