Ferrari Experience
Amazing supercar drives in and around the city
At Barcelona Life we’ve teamed up with one of the city’s most stylish tour providers to deliver a range of unforgettable Ferrari driving experiences, many of them right here in the centre of the city.
We’ll put you behind the steering wheel of the sublime and sexy Ferrari California convertible, and – with a little help from an instructor – you’ll take a tour of the amazing Catalan capital, taking in the city beaches, Gaudi’s magnificent masterpieces, the old Montjuic F1 race track or the awesome Tibidabo mountain (depending on which option you choose… 20, 40 or 90 minute tours!).
And if you really want to go for broke we can also organise a half or full day of driving supercars along the winding country roads of the picturesque Catalan countryside with coastal views and winery visits, or – for speed addicts – a racing experience at the F1 Catalunya Circuit used in the Spanish Grand Prix.

1. Beach Cruise (20 mins / €98)
If you’re simply curious about what 460 horsepower feels like then this 20 minute tour of the Barceloneta district is the perfect chance to find out – whilst doing some serious posing in your Ferrari California convertible, as you cruise past the city beaches and their bikini-clad denizens. At €98 (plus €34 for insurance, which you can purchase in the booking process) this is an incredibly affordable introduction to the world of supercars.

2. Montjuic & Old F1 Circuit (40 mins / €188)
If you want to rev up the engine a bit and test the 0-100 kph in 3.1 seconds capabilities of your Italian red stallion, then this option is highly recommended. Montjuic is the coastal hill not far from the centre of town. Not only is it full of cultural treasures – you’ll pass the Olympic Stadium, Magic Fountain and Joan Miro Foundation, to name but a few – but its winding roads were once the track for the Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix (from 1969-75), and there’s a chance to both practice your cornering and apply the accelerator. This is a 40 minute experience for €188 (plus insurance). Check Tour Details below for how to reserve.

Your 4.3 litre V8 engine will come in handy when you climb 512 metres above sea level to reach the top of Tibidabo, part of the Collserola mountain range that flanks the west side of Barcelona. Curving tree-lined roads make for an amazing driving, and the iconic attraction park at the summit was featured in Vicky Cristina Barcelona. From here, under the Church of the Sacred Heart, you’ll be able to see over literally the entire city at out over the Mediterranean sea. Epic stuff!

4. Country Roads to Montserrat (4 hours, €1299)
Supercar aficionados with a bit more time (and money) on their hands, might want to consider a country roads route, such as this one that takes you through the winding trails of Catalonia to the breathtaking Montserrat mountain range. Nestled in the jagged limestone peaks of this stunning sierra is the sacred Montserrat abbey, Barcelona’s number one day trip, and you’ll have time to pay a quick visit and snap photos of the epic views of the surrounding countryside. For this premium experience you can ride, with your top down, in a glamorous Ferrari California, or else get behind the wheel of a Lamborghini Huracan, Porsche 911 or Ferrari Portofino.
