RENT A SCOOTER







Explore Barcelona in a different and highly original way – on a scooter! An exciting alternative to conventional tours, Barcelona Scooter gives you access to every corner of the city and helps you make the most of your sightseeing time.
Barcelona Scooter provides a guided panoramic tour of Barcelona's main tourist landmarks, on 125cc automatic scooters with four-stroke engines. The tour is escorted by an English-speaking guide who will tell you about the history of the sights at each stop.

By Barcelona Scooter, you will see the jewels of Catalonia's art nouveau and modernism movements, such as Gaudi's Sagrada Familia, the Hospital de Sant Pau, La Pedrera Casa Mila and of course the bizarre Casa Batlo.

Continue to Montjuic Park, renowned for its gardens and sporting facilities. Sights include the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion, the Poble Espanyol, or Spanish Village, and the Olympic Stadium which hosted the opening and closing ceremonies of the 1992 Olympic Games.

The Barcelona Scooter tour finishes with a glide along the waterfront through Port Olimpic and Parc del Forum.

Choose the single scooter option or share with a friend on a double scooter - the choice is yours!
