Worth the experience

The helicopter flight was great with panoramic views of the coastline and beyond. We captured the Sagrada Familia from a birds eye view. Highly recommend looking at adding other flight options as they range from 7 minutes up to 40 minutes when your at meeting point.

Helicopter ride not worth

The overall flight experience was just okay since it was a very short ride. If it had been over the city along with coast and lasted around 15 minutes, it would have felt more worthwhile. Spending so much money for just seven minutes on a helicopter ride didn’t seem worth it to me. However, the sailing experience was absolutely amazing. Being a water baby, I enjoyed it a lot. Our sailor was excellent, and I’d rate the experience a 10/10. Sailing is definitely a must-do! Timing are flexible like if you reach early and the group completes they will allow you early

A LITTLE TOO SHORT

The flight was ok but would have been better if you could fly over the city a little bit. The flight was a little short to me. The boat ride was good, I enjoyed it more for the buck.

Sailing was great but don’t count on the helicopter

We were in Barcelona from the US and booked the helicopter and sailing tour for Father’s Day. The day before, they called to let us know that our helicopter experience would be at 11:30am instead of the 4:30pm as we had booked. We left flexibility in our day from 2:00pm on, but had morning plans and could not give up an entire day of vacation. We still did the sailing portion of the experience and it was incredible. I recommend booking the sailing experience only. We were refunded for the helicopter part, but it was a letdown and it is unreasonable to expect tourists to leave an entire day open for a 15 minute experience.

Not bad, but least favorite experience in our time in Spain

The logistics of this are not good. Of course with a helicopter adventure there is an added challenge, but the times for sailing should be given much more in advance. This caused us to not be able to go, having gotten the true time one day prior (after we had already booked other tours the day before and such). We also were supposed to have the longer flight, but only got the shortest route which was disappointing. That said, they did try to accommodate the sailing at different times. But when your vacation is limited, you have plans already which can make it difficult to adjust. Better to know the schedule much more in advance.

Something to remember

Seeing the views on the helicopter was lovely. The staff communicated well and made the safety protocols clear. When arriving we were waiting for only 15 minutes and then went onto a great experience. Only inconvenience was the change in time that was told to us the day before. We wanted a morning experience but was told we could only do midday.

Great day!

Helicopter ride was short but fun and we were able to see a good part of the city. Boat ride was great Manuel was our captain on the boat he was great with getting us drink’s whenever we needed and offered to take photos for us. Was great with giving restaurant recommendations after the tour has ended. Was very knowledgeable about other boats and buildings we saw throughout the ride.

Very nice but be careful with planning

I had booked the activities for Thursday March 7 at 4:30 p.m. The time I chose was not respected at all, I was informed shortly after my reservation that regarding the flight, I would have the time the day before. It's always like that. This makes things complicated when organizing a city trip. Even more so when we depend on planes. On the other hand, the person I spoke with on WhatsApp was very understanding and did everything possible to ensure that the activities went well despite the schedule changes. The locations of both places are sent in advance, please note that there is a 40 minute walk between the two. The helicopter flight went well, the place is pretty and welcoming. The flight lasted well under 7 minutes and we found the pilot very unwelcoming. The sailing trip also went well, there were small toasts and unlimited drinks (not of better quality but ok).
