Review of: Via Ferrata Climbing Experience "This was very fun. The route was both fun and exciting. We had a great guide who helped us along. Higly recomended"
My tour guide was Jordana. Others were scheduled for the tour but canceled.

In particular, touring the outside of Sagrada Familia, Jord ...

This experience was incredibly informative and really enjoyable! I thoroughly enjoyed seeing a new side of Barcelona which is shrouded in incredible architecture. Our host was incredibly knowledgeable about the modern district of Barcelona and her passion was infectious. Thanks for having me :)
This was a fantastic tour that I highly recommend. I learnt a lot about the modernist buildings in Barcelona and got to see some fantastic architecture. I am a full time wheelchair user and the pace of the tour was great, and I felt like I could stop and rest if I needed to. I used a power attachmen ...

I had booked several different things to do while in Barcelona and loved each one. I started out with the Secrets of Barcelona tour. Jordana was my guide and I was lucky enough to be the only one that time and day so I had a private tour. She was very knowledgable about all the places we saw and I d ...
My friend and I were in Barcelona for a weekend only and wanted to capsulate a tour of the main sites. From the beginning we found the Barcelonian to be super professional, easy to book and use and generally all round friendly and lovely people. Our tour guide asked us what we were particularly inte ...
Our guided tour of the Secrets of Barcelona was absolutely amazing! We learnt about the history of the old town and uncovered secrets that I couldn't even think about. The guides were knowledgeable and had answers to all our questions. A great value for money! I would highly recommend anyone who vi ...
The tour was fun and educational. It provided a different perspective of the city while enjoying beautiful views. The hike was not too difficult/challenging. Great value for money!! I highly recommend this Collserola Hiking Tour with the Barcelonian. Very professional as well.
Today our guide Jordana walked us through the Old city of Barcelona and made us discover facts and secrets we would never even think about. Ive been on other tours before, but never have I witnessed so many quirky and interesting hidden secrets in such a short amount of time. I especially liked the ...

We had limited time for our staying and these guys helped us “feeling” Barcelona! So a big thank you for allowing us to experience the authenticity of the city. Additionally I would say that the tour (born tour) was super well organised and not expensive.
I had a really great time doing the Collserola hiking tour with The Barcelonian. It shows that they go out of their way to give you a different experience from the rest of the tours in Barcelona. I have enjoyed the hike as well as beautiful views of the city from the route , ending the tour with a s ...

Who?
For all those with an adventurous spirit looking for an adventure while being in Barcelona, join us on our hiking tour around La Serra de Collserola!
What?
Collserola is a protected park where a wide variety of Mediterranean flora and fauna brings us into contact with nature just 15 minutes away from the bustling city. This is Barcelona’s great green “lung”.
Collserola is the largest metropolitan park in the world, 8 times larger than the Bois de Boulogne in Paris, and 22 times larger than Central Park in New York.
Where?
The Parc de Collserola spans 8,000 hectares of protected land covering the range of small mountains (Serra de Collserola) between the Besòs and Llobregat rivers. The park is home to a wide variety of species including wild boars. At the crest, the Carretera de les Aigües offers uplifting views of Barcelona and the Mediterranean sea on one side and the Vallès plain on the other.
At The Barcelonian we believe in sustainable tourism and authenticity, we accomplish this with small groups, our Serra de Collserola Hiking Tour is never larger than 20 people per group and we only provide this unique tour twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays at 9:30.
Why?
If you want to experience Barcelona in a different and adventurous way, get out of the tourist route. See Barcelona from a unique angle and admire the best panoramic views of the city! Go home with a story to tell, how you experience the city like a true Barcelonian.
