Tours
Below are some of the tours on offer but the great thing about GoCar is its flexibility, allowing you to create your own routes. Tours are available in English, Spanish, Catalan, French, German and Italian.
Uptown tour
The uptown tour takes place on the open roads outside the old town where you can discover Gaudi’s famous creations and you can enjoy great views of the city from Tibidabo and pay a visit to FC Barcelona’s Camp Nou stadium. This tour ventures into areas that the majority of visitors never get to see including the trendy neighbourhood of Gracia.
This route generally takes 2-3 hours depending on your stops and traffic.
Downtown tour
This tour starts in the intricate maze of the old town. You then head off down the Ramblas before heading to Montjuïc where you can enjoy some of Barcelona’s most breathtaking views and some of the areas used for the Olympics. The tour ends with a trip along the Barcelona’s beaches. Multiple detour options along the way means each tour can be a unique experience.
This route generally takes 2-3 hours depending on your stops and traffic.
