The best Barcelona night tours & experiences with locals

A city of flawless beauty and centuries-old sights, Barcelona at night becomes startlingly modern. When the sun sets, Spain’s most beguiling city transforms into a hotbed of nightlife as locals congregate at rooftop bars for a glass of vermouth before the real party begins. Barcelona night tours are the easiest way to skip out on the city’s tourist traps and get right into the good stuff. Your perfect night out could mean clubbing until sunrise, drinking and dining, or exploring softly lit streets lined with late-night boutiques – either way, we’ll make sure you spend an unforgettable night in Barcelona living it up exactly like the locals do.

See Barcelona by night

When darkness falls in Barcelona, the night sky crackles and fizzes with energy. On Barcelona night tours when the tourist traps have quieted, locals leave work to take back their streets and the true spirit of the city is tangible. The city by night will leave you breathless with exhilaration. Most Barcelona night tours are best begun sipping a glass of vermouth on a sprawling terrace as the last of the sun’s rays disappear. From there, the night is yours. With a local guide by your side, you’ll discover all the hotspots of Barcelona nightlife that aren’t necessarily in your guidebook.

The day was entirely personalized. Alan listened to what we were interested in, he was patient with all our questions. His passion and enthusiasm for history was infectious. He orientated us with the city, showed us all the local places to go away from the tourists. And as we bombarded him with history questions he was patient and not only shared his knowledge- showed us as we walked through. We took photos of where Alan suggested we go back to- the phone has then the location and easy to find (and recognize) in the myriad of confusing streets afterwards!

Alan was absolutely awesome. His passion for Barcelona and Spain infected all of us. He kept myself, my husband and 2 teenage boys 13 and 15 engaged the entire time and we bombarded him with questions as we navigated the streets of Barcelona. Alan was patient and listened to our questions and placed history into context for us. He showed us some great places to eat where locals go away from the bustle, as well as where all the local hand made artisans were hiding and orientated us so we felt like we could then conquer the rest of our trip on our own. We felt like we had family taking us around to the places they loved and sharing their love and passion for their city and country. Cannot thank you enough Alan- what a fabulous day! You bought the city alive for us as well as an enthusiasm for Gaudi from his lesser known works and also signed of history to look for in the city. We are looking forward to learning more and appreciate you putting parts of the historical puzzle of Spain together! THANK YOU for an amazing time and experience.
