Catalonia · SALOU TOURS
A Barcelona trip always has one free slot too few. These 15 salou tours are the ones that justify it, priced and timed so you can choose quickly.
Choose a 1-, 2-, or 3-day ticket for PortAventura Park and one entry to Ferrari Land, about an hour from Barcelona. Ride Shambhala and Dragon Khan, then try Red Force, Europe’s tallest and fastest coaster. The ticket skips the park entrance line, not the queues for rides.
“Long queues but worth getting there early plenty to do for all”
Board a Creuers Costa Daurada catamaran at Cambrils port for a one, three or five hour trip. The shortest option is a coastal sail; longer cruises add a swim stop, snorkel gear and drinks, with food depending on your departure and chosen option. Expect coastal views, time on deck and a multilingual crew.
“Loved it! Organisation and staff were great. Food and drink well worth the money. Would have been nice to have had longer for swimming in the sea but understand the logistics with serving food then travelling back. Would highly recommend!”
Spend a day at PortAventura World’s Caribe Aquatic Park in Salou. Your ticket covers park entry and its pools, slides, and Caribbean-themed play areas, including a towering freefall ride. Bring swimwear, sun protection, and flip-flops. Food, lockers, parking, transport, and express access to rides cost extra.
“Quite crowed but in general god for kids and relax”
Spend one day at PortAventura Park in Salou, about an hour from Barcelona. This ticket covers park entry and unlimited access to its rides, with six themed areas, shows and family attractions. It skips the ticket line, not the queues for rides. Shambhala, Dragon Khan and Sesame Street’s SésamoAventura are among the main draws.

Travel from Salou by air-conditioned coach, stop near the Sagrada Família, then see sights including Montjuïc, the Arc de Triomf, Casa Milà and Casa Batlló.

Luis is one of the guides named by riders, though your guide may vary.
“Amazing! It was 100% the highlight of our holiday! We had so much fun riding the quad bikes, I had a battery issue with my quad bike and one of the guides was happy to let me use his quad to continue my experience. 10/10 from me and my girlfriend, I highly recommend doing this when visiting salou.”

Spend two or three days at PortAventura World, about an hour from Barcelona, with access to PortAventura Park, Ferrari Land, and Caribe Aquatic Park. Ride Shambhala and Dragon Khan, try Ferrari Land’s Red Force, or cool off on water slides. Park-entry lines are covered, but ride queues are not, so plan around opening hours and busy periods.
“Great place to visit with the family. Plenty to do over two days for my two kids, aged 4 and 8. Buying tickets through Get Your Guide was so easy and we just had to scan the barcode from the tickets on the app at the entrance gate. No queues and far cheaper than buying on the day. Would definitely recommend.”
