This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 7 morning tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller rating and the thing to check before you commit.
Sunrise dolphin watching from Port d’Alcúdia with a light breakfast on board, coastal night-to-morning views, and careful wildlife spotting.
“Fantastic to see the dolphins, so magistic. Lovely breakfast consisting of a roll, croissant cheese, ham and juice or milk.”
Skip crowds on a half-day Montserrat trip from Barcelona, with hotel pickup, monastery visit, and guided views in a small group.
“Our guide Javi was wonderful. Glad I got to see natures beauty. Only complaint was the cramped minivan. It was too small for 8 adult participants and our guide.”
Sunrise paddleboarding in Barcelona: 2 hours with an instructor, lockers, shower access, and guided photos. From $35, beginner-friendly.
“One of the highlights of my trip! It is worth it to get up early and the water is warm in August. We greeted the sunrise on the water, amazing. We were lucky that the showers at Barceloneta beach were operating. This depends on the city’s water availability.”
90 minutes of sunrise paddleboarding on Barcelona’s Mediterranean, with wetsuit, instruction, and photo and video souvenirs for $29.
“Staff were very friendly. Clean space. Very nice experience!”
Beat Montserrat crowds on an early van trip with Black Madonna access and a small-group hike, sunrise views, and monastery time.
“Albert was amazing! Very knowledgeable, very good communication. We had a brief but informative tour of the monastery and then started a hike up Montserrat. The hike was not easy but totally worth the effort. Going early made the whole experience better. Not as hot. No crowds. Totally recommend it.”
Early access to Gaudí’s Casa Milà (La Pedrera) in Barcelona. Skip the line, explore patios, and enjoy rooftop views from the terrace.
“Fantastic guide (Robert) was full of energy for an early start of 8am! Very entertaining, informative and enjoyable to listen to. The three of us would most definitely recommend this tour - is well worth the money!”
Guided SUP from Cala Ratjada with a lesson, sea caves, snorkeling breaks, and photos. Small group, 90 minutes, $55.
“Cala Ratjada is a beautiful and interesting area to paddle board. We went as a family with kids age 13 and 9 and Leo took care of everything. The youngest was a bit nervous so she rode with Leo on his board which she loved. Thanks again for a great trip which was a highlight of our holiday.”
Every sort of day out, and the best-rated of each.
