We had a great experience over all with ThisisMed sailboat outing yesterday. The staff and captain were extremely welcoming and ready for me and my family. It was for my daughter's 22nd birthday, and we totally enjoyed it. She had a total blast and unforgettable. We will definitely recommend it to anyone interested in such experience. Thank you guys for making Madison's special day, all the way from Toronto, Canada. We will be back.

I've lived in Barcelona for 28 years, and we received a gift of a 2 hour tour with a glass of cava for my wife's and my 50 birthday. I wouldn't have taken this sunset tour if it hadn't been gifted to me, but I was so pleasantly surprised. The crew Wer so friendly and the 2 hours flew by. I can't recommend this more as a unique experience to see the city from a different view.

Had the best time! It was relaxing and so fun to swim. Bruno and Lucas were the best guides and were very friendly. Perfect amount of time to swim and enjoy the views.

The management of this company really needs to learn how to communicate better with their clients,  especially when they have planned a bucket-list trip to view the America's Cup from one of This is Med's boats.  This could easily have been a one-star review due to a boat switch which was not communicated to us.  Luckily, the trip was rescued by Marcel, who understood our unhappiness,  and worked very hard to turn things around. Marcel, Captain David and mariner Lucas all went out of their way to ensure the day on the Big Fish was a success and memorable time for all on board. The management at This is Med is lucky to have this team!
Marcel also provided dinner recommendations and got us booked on a beautiful sunset cruise.

The best!!! We were running late to our sailing appointment on the catamaran, but the captain and crew were extremely nice to have let us onto the boat, and the tapa was amazing. We had such blast!!!

We came for this boat trip on Wednesday and had Kristain and Albert and had such a wonderful time we booked again for Thursday!! We had Kristain and Gabe on second time who again exceeded our expectations so we have come today for a third time!! Honestly could recommend this tour enough- staff and so friendly and entertaining, a must do in Barcelona 💕

Such an amazing experience! The boat and tapas were lovely and the service was exceptional. We were so lucky to have Salvador and Alejandro as our crew! Extremely grateful!

We booked a catamaran with ThisisMed in Barcelona for my husband’s 50th birthday. We paid €5,000 for a 6-hour private sail with BBQ and open bar, plus €100 to Click&Boat for weather guarantee insurance. Leading up to the trip, communication and organisation were excellent and we looked forward to a wonderful day.

However, when we boarded the weather was rough—making the trip turbulent and unsafe. ThisisMed chose to proceed even though the skipper said the previous day had been equally awful.

Everyone on board became seasick. One of the crew members was vomiting and too sick to work. Everything we paid for went untouched: the remaining crewmember attempted to cook the BBQ but gave up; the meat fell to the floor, vegetables were not cooked, fruit and sides were not served. None of the beer or wine was opened. We returned to port 1.5 hours earlier than planned.

While I understand that weather cannot be controlled, ThisisMed should've used better judgment and cancelled the trip. As a result the service we paid for was not delivered. I requested a fair refund for the food/drinks and lost sailing time, but ThisisMed refused to offer more than a 10% refund on the sailing and 20% on the food and beverages.

This response was disappointing and not in line with the professional standards expected from a company operating in such a popular tourist destination. We will not be using ThisisMed again.

Very underwhelming.  While the vessel was clean and comfortable, that was it. The two staff spent the cruise in the back talking to each other and smoking cigarettes. Only interaction was to give each person their one drink then lay a tray of potato bread on the table. No pointing out of landmarks, discussion of Barcelona, nothing.
Not worth the money.  Go to a different tour.

Amazing sunset experience with This is MED! 🌅⛵ The views, the vibe, the calm waves — everything was perfect. Relaxing on the catamaran while the sun dipped behind Barcelona was unforgettable! ❤️✨ Highly recommend!

¡Qué gran noche!
Fuimos con mi madre y tuvimos una gran experiencia. La música jazz en vivo era tan relajante y terapéutica, ¡no sabía que era algo que necesitábamos hasta que llegamos! La tripulación nos cuidó y fue tan encantador navegar por el mar. Me encanta!
