    Where do I even begin. This is a must!! Such a cool way to tour the city on your own with a gps and “virtual” tour guide speaking to you about the history of Barcelona. I recommend this 1000%!! Easy to drive and driving around the city was not as bad as I thought. Do it, I promise you won’t regret it!

    We had so much fun. This is our 2nd time doing this. Dont forget to bring international license, or make one on the spot for extra €€ This time we rented the car for the whole day 5+ hrs. We decided where to go (we skipped some landmarks and went where we wanted 🙈) You can also stop the car at any landmark you want to visit. They let us connect to the car’s BT so we played the music we like. People around us laughed with us and filmed us and we had a blast. Car has no doors so it could get very cold but staff gave us a a blanket! It saved us! A bit pricy but highly recommended

    This was such a fun and unique experience!! I was in charge of our itinerary for Spain. When I was looking for a Barcelona tour, I came upon this one and knew I had to do it. Mind you, you will be driving your own little GoCar all over the streets of Barcelona by yourself! It’s stated by them everywhere, so if you think this would stress you out or you’d be uncomfortable in the car I wouldn’t recommend it. However, I love adventure and I’m a thrill-seeker, so is my boyfriend and so are my parents. We booked this tour and the company was very organized and friendly. We didn’t have any issues or fears about it. When the day came, we set off on our GoCars and since we only had one day in Barcelona, I felt like it was incredibly worth it! We saw all the main sights and attractions, but also saw more local sights and everyday experiences in Barcelona. I really really appreciated and enjoyed this because we learned so much about Spanish and Catalonian culture. The front desk employee who helped us was incredibly sweet, kind, and understanding! She was patient with any questions we had and THOROUGHLY explained everything about the vehicle and its mechanisms. My parents’ GoCar stopped once, but with a resetting technique that the employee taught us, they were able to continue on within minutes. Same with mine—we did not stress out because the whole GoCar experience just felt like an adventure!! Spanish people don’t drive like they want to kill you, they just drive differently. I’m sure if we went to the UK and had to drive on the opposite side we’d struggle more also. With an open mind, we were able to understand driving laws easier and a lot of people were actually friendly with us, sympathizing since we were tourists and didn’t know much. Overall, I RECOMMEND THIS!! It’s an adventure!!! All my friends and family were amazed with our tour and are now excited to look for GoCar tours when they travel themselves. Thank you guys for a memorable day in Barcelona :)

    It's the best tour in Barcelona. You get to see the whole city in 1 day and then you can go back to the places next time for longer. I recommend you do it on the first day in Barcelona.

    We did the 'Barcelona Experience tour' with a group of 6 people. Communication with the GoCar Barcelona staff went very smoothly, even if we had to postpone our reserved tour by one hour for medical reasons. They fully understood this and were very friendly when we arrived at the new postponed time. The cars themselves are great fun and easy to drive once you get used to them. From GoCar they had decorated one cart with balloons and streamers for my niece's bachelorette. I had mentioned in advance that it would be nice if they could do something extra for these bachelors, so it was very nice to see that they had actually done something extra. We appreciated this enormously. The tour itself was very nice, you see a lot of Barcelona. However, three hours is short. We also wanted to get off somewhere, for example at Montjuïc, but we did not have time for this as the traffic was very busy and we would otherwise be back at the starting point much too late. In short, highly recommended, but make sure you have eaten and drunk beforehand because shopping during the tour is very difficult (on the one hand because of the lack of time, and on the other hand because of the enormous lack of parking on the route).

    Would recommend this route over a bus tour. Its a little pricey-er but 100% worth it. We did the Gauidi tour and some of the scenes were amazing. Lots of places to stop along the way too. If you're a comfortable driver the traffic shouldn't be an issue. The GPS voice over was fantastic, giving facts along the way. And finally the staff were awesome! Super helpful and friendly. 10/10 would recommend to everyone

    What a great way to see Barcelona, this was possibly the highlight of our trip. We laughed so much & we also got to see so much. The car has a built in GPS and gives you so much information & history. We would definitely do it again.

    Touring around on these little cars was so much fun!! We loved the audio tour and the ability to move around and see so many things in Barcelona! Also, the staff here was super helpful and very kind! I would highly recommend this company and this activity to any tourist! You will love it!

    Such a great way to see the city! The driving is a little crazy but so fun! We did the 3 hour tour and saw it all- up in the mountains and down to the beach and everything in between!

    My wife and I had a BLAST! The carts are fun to drive, the city is beautiful and perfect for a goCart adventure, having a GPS is comforting knowing there is no way to get lost. Just be aware that if you’re a tall person it could get uncomfortable to drive. We did the 3hr tour and it was just amazing all the places you can visit. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

    GoCar is a great way to see the city sights at your own pace with you in control. We loved the experience and Claudia was wonderful in telling us all we needed to know and even allowing us to go over our 3 hr limit.

    Great experience! It's a change from the usual guided tours and the staff is super friendly

  • 4/5 Mark W. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing experience and really reasonable price! Only downsides are is if you are tall (6ft 3) like me then its quite uncomfortable to drive and you get numb legs, a sore buttock and taxi/bus drivers want to kill you! But other than that it was the best experience we shared in Barcà! Hope this goes to other countries because we would definitely be doing it there!

  • 5/5 Adil K. 1 year ago on Google
    Very fun, the onboard tour is very good too although we already saw most of the city with an electric scooter. Highly recommend! Had fun even though it started raining heavy as they provided a poncho👍👍

    Amazing experience! Arranged down to the last detail. Definitely recommended to see (even more) of Barcelona!

    It was such a great experience. Thanks again to GoCar for providing this activity.

  • 5/5 Toops R. 4 months ago on Google
    What a great trip! Go Car Barcelona staff was helpful and we got a complete overview of the vehicle before our trip. We made some wrong turns and got off the schedule and took a trip through a tunnel, but you should have seen the looks and attention we got when driving downtown. Super experience.

    Very nice!🙂 Top service, good personal, it was really cool to rent a car and visit barcelona. 🚗

  • 5/5 Fran B. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the highlights of our recent visit to Barcelona was the trip around the city in the GoCar. The team were so helpful and easy to deal with. The GoCar itself was very easy to use. The experience was exceptional. We got to see so much of the city in 3 hours. One piece of advice would be to take the GoCar early in your trip to Barcelona. You get a great understanding of where everything is and know where to go back to later.

  • 3/5 Jamie R. 7 months ago on Google
    Really enjoyed this! Absolutely brilliant way to see Barcelona. We did the gaudi Tour, it.was the hottest day of the year so we couldn't complete the journey as it was so hot. The views at the top of the mountain are absolutely spectacular so make sure you go up there. The go car was surprising really easy to drive, the staff explained everything in deatil, he answered all my questions and I actually learnt something new about the flashing traffic lights. The gentleman that speaks very good English was really friendly and gave us directions to our next destination. They have whatapp and sent me a messge as. Soon as we set off, if there was any issues we would have been able to get assistance pretty easy. The negatives and the reason why I scored this a 3 and not higher is because. We had to leave a €300 euro deposit that your not told about untill after booking so be prepared to pay a massive deposit, I had to get cash out otherwise it would have left me really short waiting to be refunded to my card, I was charged quiet abit to withdraw cash and it gave me a really rubbish conversion rate. We got our cash back at the end no problem, but a deposit of 3x the amount of a ticket seems very steep. The route doesn't re calculate so if you go of course like we did and it's very easy to do, you have to find your own way back to the route and it's not easy seeing that most of the roads are one way, we ended up going down a road that was one way and it was a bit of a drama. Really minor because they can't control the weather, but the go cars have no form of air-con so if your going on a hot day make sure you bring plenty of water. Overall this was an absolutely brilliant experience and I would definitely do this again!

    Excellent! The car was fun, easy, safe, and an excellent way to tour the city at your own pace. Don't be afraid to go off route either! Great outfit!

    GoCar Barcelona: We had been shown this instagram page by a friend of ours and were determined to hire one. When we got to Barcelona we went by the weather and it was glorious so we thought, let’s do it! Finding ‘GoCar’ was easy enough, it’s not far from Arc De Triomf and Ciutadella Park. The booking system was super easy, quick, friendly, relaxed and professional. The staff are wonderful! They can’t support/assist you enough. They informed us of the different options available on the pre-planned tours, or we had the option of ‘Free-style’. Where do I begin! This. Experience is absolutely AMAZING! You can’t return from Barcelona without trying this experience. Very well priced. Easy to drive. Simple instructions. Just a super cool experience and you will turn a lot of heads! Thank you ‘GoCar’ for a lifetime experience. Thoroughly enjoyable. 💫 What could be better: If the map was on during the freestyle option too. 👍🏽

  • 5/5 Nathan H. 5 months ago on Google
    Had an amazing experience with GoCar Barcelona. The staff was absolutely amazing, and very helpful. They went over all of the safety and operational information, and then we were off on our adventure. We saw so much of Barcelona, then only sad part was returning the car for the day. The views were amazing! Would definitely recommend, wish more places had this tour option.

  • 5/5 Alanoud A. 4 months ago on Google
    Thank you anna for recommending us with which tour we should go too. Amazing amazing experience from the start till the end. Everything was clear from the start. Love it. You drive around Barcelona with a guided virtual tour and different scenery spot. Much recommended to do this activity. We did a 3 hour drive didnt feel the time while driving. Amazing will come back for others routes.

  • 5/5 Paul H. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice and fun way to explore the city. You can book different routes. With the navigation it's easy and there are some informative and fun comments along the way.

  • 5/5 T L. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff are excellent. Informative and helpful. Now to the excursion. GO GO GO GO... it is the greatest fun you may ever have. Be prepared to go off course but the friendly GPS voice gets you back in track. The first few minutes can be intimidating but once you get going you will love it. The attractions are perfect we loved the trip by the Sea. GO GO GO

  • 4/5 Jennifer P. 1 year ago on Google
    Driving the GoCar was a lot of fun and a great way to see Barcelona! We could stop wherever we wanted and, if we accidentally went off of the mapped route, the GPS guided us back onto it. I would definitely recommend it. The only drawback was trying to find a taxi in the area after we were done with the tour. In response to the owner, my husband did go and ask your employee if a taxi could be called and he was told no.

  • 4/5 Scott K. 1 year ago on Google
    So my wife and I incorrectly assumed that there would be a guide car and/or a group riding with us. However, it was just us in the car out on our own. For us, the experience was a little too stressful. We spent more time trying to navigate and not miss turns than enjoying the tour of the city. So I'd say if you're not too stressed by driving around a new city in a mini-car (it was fun to drive!), book it! If you're looking for something more relaxing, then a different type of tour would be better. I will add that the employee who set us up was very nice and good at explaining how to drive the car.
