What to expect

You'll meet at a central location and collect your eBike and helmet before heading into the old town. The route weaves through the tight lanes of the Gothic district where cars rarely venture, then opens onto wider avenues lined with Gaudí-influenced buildings. Expect to stop frequently—your guide will point out architectural details, street history, and explain why Catalan identity matters to locals. Midway through, you'll reach the beach for a breather and the chance to take in the scale of the city meeting the sea. The pace is leisurely; e-bikes do the heavy lifting on inclines.
