Our take
It combines two ways of seeing Barcelona in one afternoon: first from the sea, with the city skyline from the boat, then on foot with a local guide through the centre's streets, squares and corners. At about €21 per person, it's one of the cheapest guided tours in town. It's a new product with no reviews yet, and the finale is a surprise the operator won't reveal. If you like a light-hearted tone and want a first feel for Barcelona, it fits.
