When people hear the word ‘harbor’ is not aware of the importance of maritime transport on their daily lives. In this experience, we open the door to an unknown and exotic world. This reality is a part of Barcelona. We want that adults and children be aware of the reality of the ships and all that surrounds them in their activities.

For over 25 years, we offer a tour in a traditional Golondrina with a guide that explains along the route the function of the harbor, the history of the Port of Barcelona and its relationship with the city, as well as the rest of the country.

How is the trip?

The journey lasts one hour (60 minutes) during which the students and teachers / instructors, will be aboard in a classic Golondrina. The Golondrina will go across the docks of the Port of Barcelona. The minimum capacity is 30 students.

What are the prices and payment terms?

7.90€ per student (taxes included).

If you pay by bank transfer there will be a discount per student at the time of the booking.

The activity is free for teachers. The deadline for incomes is 7 days before departure. If the payments are not realized or come too late, we do not offer the discount and you must pay the difference the same day of departure.

How can I cancel my reservation?

To cancel your reservation please send us an email stating your status and booking details. In case of cancellation you can resend your last email to us. We only need that email which indicates your trip cancelation.

For bookings that you will pay the day of departure:

We ask that if you have not paid in advance that you do it at least 48 hours before departure to facilitate the organization of the booking process.

For bookings with transfer:

If the transfer is done 48 hours before the departure the entire amount will be refunded. If the transfer is not done 48 hours before the departure only the 50% of the total amount will be refunded.

Can I make an advance payment with a biding price?

Reservations must be made with the total transfer for all students. Capacity is limited and we must know how many passengers we will have to prevent over boarding of passengers. If this occurs, the students will not make the trip.

What happens if there are fewer students than the number of booking?

You should tell us when you get the ticket if there are fewer students on the day of the booking. We will pay you the difference with cash and the responsible of the group must sign a receipt to indicate the deliverance of the money.

Can we travel alone on the boat?

The idea of the trip is that there is only one group that travels on a boat, however, for small groups there is a possibility of traveling with other schools in the same boat. In that case, that will be groups of similar ages to adapt the explanation of the guide to an adequate level.

Can we go together if we are a big group?

The capacity of classic boats is 145 people, of which 80 to 100 fit on the top cover depending of the Golondrina service. This is another reason why it is better for us to know the number of students: If you are a big group, you can make several trips (at different times) or even in two boats at the same time if there are free boats.

Where is the meeting point for the day of your trip?

On the day of your trip all members of the group need to be present fifteen 15 minutes before the departure time at the ticket office of Las Golondrinas to get their boarding ticket.

Is it necessary to bring something?

If payment is made by bank transfer you must deliver a copy of the receipt to get the ticket. You may not embark until the group leader shows the ticket at the gate. We recommend to bring warm clothing according to the season even if the trip is done near the summer, there is always breeze or the weather may change. You cannot forget sunglasses and sunscreen!

Why is it important to arrive before the departure?

It is important to arrive before the departure to ensure quality service and that everyone gets their ticket and runs smoothly. We ask the cooperation of our customers. Therefore, from the direction of Las Golondrinas we inform you that if you arrive late or the ship is on delay for causes originated by the group the travel time will be subtracted to arrival in time for the next service.

What happens if you are late?

If you arrive late and you share the trip with another school that is already on board, the ship will not wait for you. In these cases we do not return the money. We try to get you another time tour for the same day or the possibility to book another date.

If there is bad weather that day do the trips get canceled?

If there is availability we offer the option to make the trip in a modern Golondrina with no added charges included.

If the weather is very bad or if there is a very high level of fog it could delayed or moved to another date or canceled.
