Barcelona Trixi Tours

[clamar]

Has anyone tried the Bcn Trixi Tours ? I have not seen any mention of them on any posts. My husband and I are arriving Bcn in the morning and not knowing how jet lagged we will be I am reluctant to pre-booking a private tour. The Trixi Tour (covers Gothic Quarter and Gaudi's BCN) uses a rickshaw type cart with driver and is powered by bike and electric motor. The price is reasonable-45 euros for 1 or 2 people for a 2 1/2 hour tour.:o

 

Any info would be appreciated

Yes, we did it and we loved it.

I have problems walking long distances so the Trixi was one way I could see more of the Gothic quarter where no normal traffic can go.

There are lots of tours much cheaper than €45 - that would give you a very comprehensive tour lasting about 2 1/2 hours.

In my opinion I would take a couple of shorter tours of about 1 hour that would cost about €20 for 2.

Remember, especially if it is hot, that your driver, however fit, will start to get tired.

Carol, thanks for the info. We will opt for one of the shorter tours in the morning and perhaps another in the afternoon.

Hi Carol,

 

What are the cheaper 2 1/2 hour tours that you mentioned?

Sorry I wasn't very clear. What I meant was there are a lot of tours cheaper (and shorter) than 2 1/2 hours.

As I said before, I would rather do 2 or 3 short tours than one long tour. It is interesting though because you can go places you would not go to unless you did a lot of walking.
