Basque Country to Asturias Self-Guided Cycling Tour

it was a wonderful journey. A beautiful route with breathtaking viewpoints. Excellent hotels and good guidance and support from Iberia Tours. Highly recommended!

Mallorca: Cycling Paradise

The over all experience was fine, excellent hotels, first class bikes and the navigation system fairly good. My negative comments are the information flow and guidence, especially in the beginning, how to check in to the tour, the reception and so forth. We had expected ore formally start and some advice according to this special route. It was a need for this in relation to utility of battery function and consuming of power. We had some problems in the Tramuntana, near Sierra de Tramuntana, ran out of electricity and a little help to get from the organizer. We had the general feeling in the tour that we were more or less on our own. That can also be good

• Christmas & New Year

"Camino de Santiago" (Way of St James): French Way from Sarria -100 km

Great tour. Good transfers and accommodations. Suggest that breakfast be served earlier at ALL hotels and no later than 7 AM since we need to START walking no later than 7:30 AM to cover the long distances. Taxis also need to show up on time. Also do some research and let clients know where public laundrys are located near hotels. These suggestions would make your tour even better.

• €70 deposit on some dates Some departure dates offer you the chance to book this tour with a lower deposit.

Down South, Self-drive

Loved the self-drive tour, gave us the ability to stay on our own schedule. Locations were great with lots to explore in each town as well as along the drive. Ronda and Seville were our favorite! We had the ability to stop while on the road to wine and olive oil taste too, as well as explore Castillo de Almodovar, a beautifully restored castle near Seville where they shot several scenes of Game of Thrones. Location of hotels were good too, easy to get to so you didn't have to drive through some of those difficult narrow one way streets. Only issue was having to pay for parking at some of the hotels, this should have been part of the package. Other than that, it was a great tour!

Santi was great at explaining how to use an electric bike, turns out they are way easier to use then i expected! Glad i followed Santi's recommendation. Great food too!

Tenerife North & South, Self-drive

We booked a self-guided tour in Tenerife, splitting our stay between the north for 3 nights and the south for 4 nights. In the north, we enjoyed a scenic hike and visited Loro Parque, ending one evening with a private dinner at Bernoulli's Steak House. Our 4* hotel had a beautiful beach view. The experience at H10 Atlantic Hotel in South Tenerife was fantastic, especially the quad ride and sunset at Mt. Teide. We also explored a mall and relaxed at the beaches. Driving around Tenerife was easy, making it a great destination for tourists who prefer to self-drive. Overall, our Tenerife trip was memorable and fun.

"Camino de Santiago" (Way of St James): Portuguese Way from Tui -100 km

Great hotels and service.

Ojos Negros Spain’s longest greenway in 4 stages

We did this trip with some friends and it was a wonderful experience. We really enjoyed the electric bikes, they are a lot of fun and give you a great help when you need it. We followed the route that Santi made for us. The environment is beautiful, the natural park of Sierra Calderona is spectacular. They have everything very organized and they are very nice. All we had to do was pedal, eat and enjoy! A highly recommended experience

The Expiatory Temple of Sagrada Família is Gaudí’s masterpiece. His conception of the basilica was based on the traditions of Gothic and Byzantine cathedrals. He achieved a symbiosis between form and Christian iconography and designed a very personal architecture through new but thoroughly logical structures, shapes, and geometries, all inspired by nature and in which light and color played a central role.

Visit the magical Park Güell, a testament to Gaudí’s vision and imagination. Commissioned by Catalan entrepreneur Eusebi Güell, it is considered one of Barcelona’s greatest tourist attractions. Its large square was often used for staging traditional Sardana dancing and other social events. Gaudí’s design is a perfect match for this recreational space.

The main thoroughfare of Barcelona is lined with trees, street performers, and cafe culture.

Palau de la Música Catalana (Palace of Catalan Music)

Private tour of the Palace of Catalan Music, an exemplary showcase of Catalan Modernista style constructed between 1905 to 1908.

Masterpieces of the Prado Museum

This gallery in Madrid has the most complete collection of Spanish paintings from the 11th-18th centuries, and numerous masterpieces by great universal artists such as El Greco, Velázquez, Goya, Bosch, Titian, Van Dyck, and Rembrandt.

Discover the oldest part of the city with your private guide at the Puerta del Sol (Sun Gates) and Plaza Mayor, the main square in the heart of the city.

Don’t miss the magnificent Royal Palace, one of Europe’s largest. It was built over a medieval Arab fortress and over the centuries different monarchs have left their mark both in the décor and the design of its gardens. A stroll through the Royal Palace’s halls is a journey to the last 400 years of Spain’s rise and fall as an empire.

Medieval Madrid Walking Tour

Our Medieval Madrid walking tour shows you the origins of the old town up to and including the 15th century. We start with a few remaining Archaeological sites. You will hear stories about the early inhabitants and take a pleasant historical walk through the different civilizations that were here: The tour incorporates history and traditions from The Moors, Christian & Jewish history.

Ever since the Catholic Monarchs conquered Granada in 1492, the Alhambra, qa’lat al-Hamra, or the Red Castle, has fed the fantasies of travelers and visitors alike. And ever since the publication of Washington Irving’s book, Tales of the Alhambra, the site’s spectacular gardens, the sounds of its fountains, and its mysterious, sophisticated rooms have inspired travelers to imagine exotic scenes, transporting them to a fascinating world, far away in time and space. Some say it might be the closest thing to a scene from the tale of 1001 Arabian Nights! You can be the judge on our private, expertly guided private tour. Back to the Alhambra.

The Mosque increased in both size and beauty as the city became more politically and socially important and was even spared during the Christian Reconquest. It was converted into a Christian cathedral in 1238, and its Byzantine mosaics and the extraordinary system of two-tone horseshoe-shaped arches underwent several expansions, emulating both Renaissance and Baroque styles. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984, Córdoba’s Mosque-Cathedral is the best-preserved building from its period.

Simply a must-visit destination when visiting Spain, let alone Seville, the UNESCO-listed Royal Alcazar (meaning “castle” in Spanish and derived from “Al-qasr”, Arabic for palace) dates back to 913, and over the years the Moorish traditions and Christian culture have blended to create a magnificent palace which is still King Felipe V’s official residence when in Seville.

With special skip-the-line access, your guide will take you around all of the most significant aspects of the incredible royal Alcazar

Did you know that Picasso was actually born in Malaga? Discover more about one of Malaga’s most famous sons, and indeed, one of the world’s most renowned artists on a guided tour of the grand Picasso museum just a short walk from the bay.

The Bullring dates back to 1850 in an immediately recognizable classical style. Please contact us in advance if you would like to attend as events are very seasonal and can sell out quickly.

Enjoy a guided tour of Valencia Cathedral in the center of the Old Town. Explore the various architectural styles on display, including baroque, Romanesque, and gothic.

La Lonja de la Seda (Silk Exchange)

The Lonja is an emblematic building of the city and one of the most famous gothic structures in a country with no shortage of exemplary examples! It was declared a National Historic and Artistic Monument in 1931 and subsequently a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.

Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of the Arts and Sciences)

One of the “12 Treasures of Spain” this complex is a cultural and architectural hub that will surely be a highlight of any tour in Valencia.

Enjoy a guided tour route through the caves, marveling as each cavern is bigger than the last and more impressive as you progress. The highlight of your visit will be the classical music concert inside the Caves of Drach and crossing Lake Martel’s spectacular waters in a small wooden boat.

Or to give it its full title The Catedral-Basilica de Santa Maria de Mallorca began construction in 1229 under King James I of Aragon in Catalan Gothic style but wasn’t completed until 1601.

Enjoy a private tour of the official Mallorca residence of the King and Queen

Our guide will tailor the walk to you and your pace. We will stroll around the narrow streets of the old town so we can discover charming squares, “patios” (courtyards) from the 16th century, and hidden gems such as the Convent of Santa Clara or the Arab Baths. The guided walk will also take us around the area that was the Jewish Quarter during the 16th Century; a perfect chance to learn a bit more about this culture and its relation with Mallorca.

Our last part of the walking itinerary will take us to see some beautiful modernist buildings and to learn how the “art nouveau” came to Mallorca.

Local Food and La Ribera Market

Plaza Nueva and its surrounding streets are full of busy bars serving their famous pintxos: small, delicious bites of food. The counters in Bilbao bars are attractive showcases that are constantly fresh and updated. Alongside the most traditional and well-established ponchos are innovative creations that have the sole aim of surprising the most demanding of palates. Here, foodies can find their place among the buzzing bars, family-run restaurants, and prestigious chefs. And they will also have the chance to visit the La Ribera Market, a beautiful building where you can have the product that you purchase cooked for you, or where you can sample a selection of pintxos and Txakoli wine to the beat of live music.

Visit the 14th Century Bilbao Cathedral with your private guide.

Since its opening in 1997, the Guggenheim Bilbao and Puppy – a floral sculpture of a dog by Jeff Koons, located outside the museum – have become the most internationally-known symbols of Bilbao. They form part of the collection of works by great figures in the world of art: David Salle, Chillida, Jeff Koons, Louis Bourgeois, and Robert Rauschenberg

The old town, known as the “Siete Calles” (seven streets), was rehabilitated after the terrible floods in 1983. We will learn about the city and its powerful history by walking through its streets and its main monumental vestiges, such as Santiago Cathedral, San Antón church, Bidebarrieta library, and the Plaza Nueva.

PTE Travel Ltd | Partnered with DABA Tourism Marketing

The Expiatory Temple of Sagrada Família is Gaudí’s masterpiece. His conception of the basilica was based on the traditions of Gothic and Byzantine cathedrals. He achieved a symbiosis between form and Christian iconography and designed a very personal architecture through new but thoroughly logical structures, shapes, and geometries, all inspired by nature and in which light and color played a central role.

Barri Gothic (The Gothic Quarter)

Embark on a fascinating journey in time where we will reveal the secrets of its history: the remains of the Roman Temple of Augustus; the splendor of wonderfully preserved Romanesque churches and monasteries; the outstanding example of Catalan Gothic that is the Church of Santa Maria del Mar; the old Jewish Quarter; public buildings and palaces.

Palau de la Música Catalana (Palace of Catalan Music)

Private tour of the Palace of Catalan Music, an exemplary showcase of Catalan Modernista style constructed between 1905 to 1908.

We will also visit the magical Park Güell, a testament to Gaudí’s vision and imagination. Commissioned by Catalan entrepreneur Eusebi Güell, it is considered one of Barcelona’s greatest tourist attractions. Its large square was often used for staging traditional Sardana dancing and other social events. Gaudí’s design is a perfect match for this recreational space.

This gallery in Madrid has the most complete collection of Spanish paintings from the 11th-18th centuries, and numerous masterpieces by great universal artists such as El Greco, Velázquez, Goya, Bosch, Titian, Van Dyck, and Rembrandt.

Walking Tour of Puerta del Sol & Plaza Mayor

Discover the oldest part of the city with your private guide at the Puerta del Sol (Sun Gates) and Plaza Mayor, the main square in the heart of the city.

Medieval Madrid Walking Tour

Our Medieval Madrid walking tour shows you the origins of the old town up to and including the 15th century. We start with a few remaining Archaeological sites. You will hear stories about the early inhabitants and take a pleasant historical walk through the different civilizations that were here: The tour incorporates history and traditions from The Moors, Christian & Jewish history.

Don’t miss the magnificent Royal Palace, one of Europe’s largest. It was built over a medieval Arab fortress and over the centuries different monarchs have left their mark both in the décor and the design of its gardens. A stroll through the Royal Palace’s halls is a journey to the last 400 years of Spain’s rise and fall as an empire.

Alhambra Palace in Granada

Ever since the Catholic Monarchs conquered Granada in 1492, the Alhambra, qa’lat al-Hamra, or the Red Castle, has fed the fantasies of travelers and visitors alike. And ever since the publication of Washington Irving’s book, Tales of the Alhambra, the site’s spectacular gardens, the sounds of its fountains, and its mysterious, sophisticated rooms have inspired travelers to imagine exotic scenes, transporting them to a fascinating world, far away in time and space. Some say it might be the closest thing to a scene from the tale of 1001 Arabian Nights! You can be the judge on our private, expertly guided private tour.

Simply a must-visit destination when visiting Spain, let alone Seville, the UNESCO-listed Royal Alcazar (meaning “castle” in Spanish and derived from “Al-qasr”, Arabic for palace) dates back to 913, and over the years the Moorish traditions and Christian culture have blended to create a magnificent palace which is still King Felipe V’s official residence when in Seville. 

With special skip-the-line access, your guide will take you around all of the most significant aspects of the incredible royal Alcazar.

Picasso Museum in Malaga

Did you know that Picasso was actually born in Malaga? Discover more about one of Malaga’s most famous sons, and indeed, one of the world’s most renowned artists on a guided tour of the grand Picasso museum just a short walk from the bay.

Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba

The Mosque increased in both size and beauty as the city became more politically and socially important and was even spared during the Christian Reconquest. It was converted into a Christian cathedral in 1238, and its Byzantine mosaics and the extraordinary system of two-tone horseshoe-shaped arches  underwent several expansions, emulating both Renaissance and Baroque styles. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984, Córdoba’s Mosque-Cathedral is the best-preserved building from its period.

Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of the Arts and Sciences)

One of the “12 Treasures of Spain” this complex is a cultural and architectural hub that will surely be a highlight of any tour in Valencia.

Plaza de Toros de Valencia

The Bullring dates back to 1850 in an immediately recognizable classical style. Please contact us in advance if you would like to attend as events are very seasonal and can sell out quickly.

Enjoy a guided tour of Valencia Cathedral in the center of the Old Town. Explore the various architectural styles on display, including baroque, Romanesque, and gothic.

The Lonja is an emblematic building of the city and one of the most famous gothic structures in a country with no shortage of exemplary examples! It was declared a National Historic and Artistic Monument in 1931 and subsequently a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.

Or to give it its full title The Catedral-Basilica de Santa Maria de Mallorca began construction in 1229 under King James I of Aragon in Catalan Gothic style but wasn’t completed until 1601.

Enjoy a private tour of the official Mallorca residence of the King and Queen.

Our guide will tailor the walk to you and your pace. We will stroll around the narrow streets of the old town so we can discover charming squares, “patios” (courtyards) from the 16th century, and hidden gems such as the Convent of Santa Clara or the Arab Baths. The guided walk will also take us around the area that was the Jewish Quarter during the 16th Century; a perfect chance to learn a bit more about this culture and its relation with Mallorca.

Our last part of the walking itinerary will take us to see some beautiful modernist buildings and to learn how the “art nouveau” came to Mallorca.

Enjoy a guided tour route through the caves, marveling as each cavern is bigger than the last and more impressive as you progress. The highlight of your visit will be the classical music concert inside the Caves of Drach and crossing Lake Martel’s spectacular waters in a small wooden boat.

Catedral de Santiago de Bilbao

Visit the 14th Century Bilbao Cathedral with your private guide.

Bilbao’s Old Town (Cesco Viejo)

The old town, known as the “Siete Calles” (seven streets), was rehabilitated after the terrible floods in 1983. We will learn about the city and its powerful history by walking through its streets and its main monumental vestiges, such as Santiago Cathedral, San Antón church, Bidebarrieta library, and the Plaza Nueva.

Since its opening in 1997, the Guggenheim Bilbao and Puppy – a floral sculpture of a dog by Jeff Koons, located outside the museum – have become the most internationally-known symbols of Bilbao. They form part of the collection of works by great figures in the world of art: David Salle, Chillida, Jeff Koons, Louis Bourgeois, and Robert Rauschenberg.

Local Food & La Ribera Market

Plaza Nueva and its surrounding streets are full of busy bars serving their famous pintxos: small, delicious bites of food. The counters in Bilbao bars are attractive showcases that are constantly fresh and updated. Alongside the most traditional and well-established ponchos are innovative creations that have the sole aim of surprising the most demanding of palates.

Here, foodies can find their place among the buzzing bars, family-run restaurants, and prestigious chefs. And they will also have the chance to visit the La Ribera Market, a beautiful building where you can have the produce that you purchase cooked for you, or where you can sample a selection of pintxos and Txakoli wine to the beat of live music.

Barcelona Full-Day Private Tour Itinerary

Beginning with a collection from the airport, your accommodation or any other starting point of your choosing, your private day tour with a guide and a luxury vehicle will begin with a trip back in time to the oldest part of the city, the stunning Gothic Quarter of Barcelona.

The origins of Barcelona are swathed in myth and legend, from fantastical tales stating that the city was founded by Hercules and his brother Hermes, to the more realistic but just as fascinating version of events that say Barcelona was forged through war and trade as a Carthaginian outpost. Get to know the real story as your guide takes you through the old town.

Some of the highlights you will encounter as you walk the cobbled streets and visit ancient Roman and medieval artifacts on this guided tour are:

• The Roman City Wall from the time Barcelona was named Barcino
• The Jewish quarter – home to one of Europe’s oldest Synagogues
• Basilica Santa Maria del Mar, the last Catalan Gothic-style church in Barcelona 
• The Royal Palace – The Palau Reial de Pedralbes former residence for the Spanish Royal Family

Awesome Architecture and Gaudi Barcelona Experience

After stopping for a typically Barcelona-style Tapas lunch, your private driver-guide will take you back downtown to explore the works of Gaudi which give Barcelona such a unique and distinctive modernist character.

Skip-the-line tickets to the Sagrada Familia

The Temple of Sagrada Família is Gaudí’s unfinished masterpiece and one of the most visited spots in all of Spain, so the chance to skip the queue and enjoy a private tour with your guide is essential to fully experience this divine structure. When the light kisses the stained glass windows and bathes the cathedral in a kaleidoscope of colors, it truly is a magical moment to savor.

Private Tour of Park Guell

Rounding off the afternoon’s Gaudi architecture tour will be the magical Park Güell, a testament to Gaudí’s vision and imagination. Considered one of Barcelona’s greatest tourist attractions. Its large square was often used for staging traditional Sardana dancing and other social events. 

Constructed between 1900 and 1914 the buildings inside Park Guell were designed to be the perfect synthesis between artistic vision, comfortable living space, and community building.

To this end, the structures are not only dazzling to the eye thanks to their undulating and warping forms but also due to the rich symbolism on display. Your guide will discuss with you how elements of Catalanism are sewn throughout, Gaudi’s devout Catholicism and Spanish and historic mythology are all realized in the awe-inspiring designs.

On the tour, we will also gaze upon Passeig de Gràcia’s façades and exteriors, including the main Gaudí houses, such as Casa Milà (“La Pedrera”) and Casa Batlló, which contribute to making Barcelona the truly unique city it is. Amongst other locations, alongside your private guide will visit:

• UNESCO World Heritage Site Casa Batllo
• El Drac de Gaudi: The Dragon Gate at The Guell Pavilions
• Casa Mila – The last completed work of Gaudi before devoting himself to the Sagrada Cathedral
• The Monumento al Calvario, originally designed to be a chapel

La Rambla Food & Wine Experience

What better way to spend the evening in Barcelona than joining your guide for a curated food and wine tour of La Rambla, the city’s most famous and vibrant street?

Our tour planners will tailor this experience to your preferences, so you can eat like a local as you try a selection of classically Barcelona fresh meats, fish, and seafood on a guided market tour through Mercat De Sant Antoni, De La Boqueria or Mercat De La Barceloneta, enjoy a private cooking class with a local professional chef, or you can ask us to reserve a table in one of the many 5 star restaurants on La Rambla.

Bringing stones to life for you

Private tours of Barcelona that show you the best of the city at your own pace, honoring your interests and favorite sites, matching your energy levels and budget.

The Private Tours In Barcelona That You Dream Of

Unforgettable Barcelona Private Guided Tours

We know your time is limited and you want to see as much as possible, but at a nice pace: Rushing is not fun!

Our tour guides can skip lines at the sites and know the shortcuts so your tour time is maximized. You can often cover with us almost twice as much you’d do on your own!

We know you don’t just want facts . They are important, of course. That’s why our tour guides are very knowledgeable and can adapt to any level: from school kids to university teachers. 

But at the same time, they can also connect you with the soul of the city with funny anecdotes and hidden gems easy to miss.  They are gifted story-tellers that will bring the stones to life before your eyes.

We know your time with us is only a small portion of your trip , and we want the whole thing to be a success. 

In our private Barcelona tours you’ll learn to navigate the city and leave with plenty of ideas for the rest of your stay, from restaurants to more things to do and see.

We know you crave to meet locals . Our guides are all born and raised here, speak both Catalan and Spanish (besides being fluent in English) and are open to talk politics, religion or economics if that’s what interests you.

Your Barcelona private tour guides will be the best local connection of your entire trip. You’ll feel like you’ve made a new good old friend.

We know being in a foreign country can be a bit daunting . Your safety and well-being will be at the top of your tour guide’s mind. Translating, protecting you from pickpockets and tourist traps, and being sensitive to your loved ones – either they are little children, seniors, or people with special needs. 

And Our Guests Confirm it!

“If you are scary busy, and just want to get to the punchline, booking a tour with ForeverBarcelona will be your genius trip planning move”
