It was a very good experience
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
The boat model is the most economical, the rate price is 70 euros, at the ticket office without saying anything they left it to us at 60 euros. More or less 1 hour of sailing. The boat is very good. At the end, they give you the choice if you want a photo.

A very good way to explore the canals of Empuriabrava, and don't be alarmed if the weather is bad, you will be sheltered. And if the sea is rough while navigating inside, you won't even notice.

A very fun experience, we enjoyed a lot and laughed, it is also very easy to handle. I recommend it better than taking the collective boat.

Positive experience:
70 euros. The hour with the electric boat doesn't go fast at all, but the route is specified, it's not worth rushing more.

Positive experience:
We had a great afternoon, very fun, something different to take a barkita through the main canal, 60€ an hour, it's not something you do every day, very fun

Curious place. Invented by the hand of man
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
If you want to know Empuri in depth, you have no choice but to rent one of these little boats. The price is excessive. 100€ per hour. It was worth it. Just for a one-time visit though!
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
We were in Empuriabrava yesterday, and we took a walk along the canals and saw many houses. Then, before getting on the boat, they took a photo of us in case we wanted to take it later. They gave us the photo they took and a plate in case we wanted to buy it. We took it, we loved it.

Really, even for very clumsy people like me, the experience of navigating the canals of Empuriabrava and almost 'sneaking' into the mansions is very original even among all that the Costa Brava offers. Thanks to the staff for their patience and help with the departure and mooring.

We had some slushies and some gins, normal price, pleasant atmosphere

Fantastic experience:
We arrived just before closing time in the afternoon and still they rented us a small boat. Very nice people and everything was perfect.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
It's not bad for a pleasant stroll through the canals of Empuriabrava. But I find the price somewhat exorbitant, €80 for an hour, for a motorboat for four people. It's a quirky experience that the kids found amusing.

Fantastic experience:
A marvel. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The guy who helped us and explained everything was a 10 in kindness. The tour is beautiful. It was worth every minute. There were three of us, but we took the one for 80€ because, for a 10€ difference, the difference in size and stability wasn't worth it. We went over a few minutes and they didn't say anything. They take a photo that we didn't plan to buy. But between how great we had a time and how well we ended up, we finally bought the photo and the plate for 15€. Highly recommended one hundred percent.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
The ride is a wonderful experience. Ampuriabrava is beautiful seen from inside the canals and its impressive villas. The little boat is a delight. Very safe and easy to handle. Especially suitable for enjoying with family and friends and having a good laugh. The price is reasonable.

Very fun. Both for operating the little boat and for the pleasant surroundings. It’s a bit pricey but worth it.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Nice walk, the little boat is very easy to handle, the staff is very friendly. It's a shame that you can't navigate between the canals, you can only go through the two main ones and a small lake.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Empuriabrava is one of the liveliest towns in the upper part of the Costa Brava and there are plenty of things to do, one of which I think is essential if you go with family or friends is to ride on LosBarkitos (groups of 4 to 6, it's the best of all). They have 6 different types of vessels where you and your group are the captain, the tour through the canals lasts for 1 hour (if you can afford it, get higher category vessels, for 5/10 euros more than on other vessels the experience will be better). The control of the boat is quite simple although on windy days it can get a bit complicated. During the tour through the canals and the lake you can enjoy impressive houses and boats. The staff is extremely friendly and patient. Before starting the tour, they take a picture of you and at the end you can buy it, either in paper or on a plate, or both. The price for both is 15 euros. It's a great souvenir and honestly, the photos they take are really cool.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
We went yesterday because my 4-year-old son was especially excited to get on a little boat. We had come a few years ago as a couple and the price has increased significantly. 1 hour 60 euros.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Very nice experience! We took a boat for 6 people. It cost 90 euros for an hour, but it was worth it. We enjoyed the trip, went around several times. We saw the houses, the birds, the water. Everything was very beautiful. There were some guys doing a parachuting activity and we got to see that too. Very cool. Honestly, highly recommendable. I saw that some people were bothered by the photo part. We bought the two photos that were taken of us. I guess it’s a matter of taste. I would definitely do it again.

A very quiet and pleasant walk, I recommend it. I brought my two little dogs and we also took them on the boat. It's great because you bring your own boat.

The walk was very average. And they only provided information in French. We wanted to understand. We are Colombian. Or at least it should have been in English.

Fantastic experience:
Super fun! They gave us a very comfortable and easy-to-handle electric boat. There were 4 of us and we had a great time! I recommend it to explore the canals of Empuriabrava from the inside. Ideal for a family outing. The staff are super friendly and good vibes. They take a photo of you and then you can buy it or not, it’s not mandatory. I bought it because it’s a keepsake and the little plate with the photo is a very nice souvenir.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
For spending an hour, it's pretty good; the only issue is that the price of €60 seems a bit expensive to me, but oh well... At the end of the ride, they try to sell you photos and a plastic plate with a photo taken before the trip. The little boat has a speed suitable for not having any license.

Boat ride on the Ampuriabrava canal. Beautiful scenery, especially for seeing the houses and properties along the canal.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
This is a company that rents boats to go for a walk through the canals of Empuriabrava. The boats are quite nice and are ideal for enjoying a stroll through the canals. The prices seem a bit excessive to me. €60 for an hour's outing for 2 people seems a bit expensive. However, I recommend the experience as it is the best way to see Empuriabrava.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
We were there two weeks ago and it was a fantastic experience for the family. Highly recommended.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
I give it 3 stars because we didn't understand why in August we have to pay 5 euros more per person. The price is 60, so 60 in August... it's a shame, we went up because we were already there and wanted to take advantage with the little ones. But we won't come back because of the fact of taking advantage of it being a month of the year.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
The boys and girls who serve are lovely. The walk along the canal is the best option to see the houses and the environment of Ampuriabrava. The wait was short and the little boats are clean and easy to drive. Without a doubt, it is a trip I will repeat.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
A must-see in Empuriabrava if you get the chance. The small boats for 2/3 people cost €60 for 45 minutes and you can navigate the canal perfectly in that time. Very picturesque and recommendable. Anyone can handle the boats and there is no need for a license or driver's permit. For more recommendations, you can follow me at @laventanadeatras.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
A magnificent walk, beautiful day
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
One hour for 65 euros seems excessive to me. The scenery is worth it and as an experience it's not bad. But at that price, it's not worth repeating. Regarding the response, I am unaware of the price for jet skiing, it wasn't the purpose of that day. If we compare, there are cheaper plane tickets and you go further.
Translated from Spanish
It depends on how you look at it. How much does it cost you to ride a jet ski for 15 minutes?

I really recommend it, they are the best. We have been with our pets and they have taken care of us wonderfully, it is great to have such attentive staff, that is very good for a company, the personal attention. Thank you

Fantastic experience:
Super cool experience through the canals for an hour. We went with our kids aged 11 and 7 and they loved it. The little boat, being motorized, if you want, you can have a bit more speed than the electric ones. We had a small problem with the steering cable and they came to tow us and very kindly compensated us for the lost time by letting us have another new boat and a small gift. Thank you very much, highly recommended.

Regarding the walk, it is very nice to get to know Empuriabrava, and the little houses you see are beautiful, also enjoying the lovely atmosphere that is felt. And regarding the bar, it is very good, we had some smoothies and slushies that were amazing!!

Great, an experience to remember and enjoy the canals from the inside, observing the houses of the poor people haha. The tour lasts about 45 minutes, which is more than enough.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
We took it as two couples, it cost us 50€ per hour. You take a walk around the two main canals and you have time in an hour to see it calmly.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Very nice people and they know how to sell really well! The thing is that I approached to check prices and they asked my stepson's age, and when he told them his age they just said 'well, you get in for free'. Of course, now take away the child's excitement about getting on the little boat. In the end, we got on and it was very fun. Don’t expect strong emotions, but if you go with children and want to let them drive a little boat for a while, they will love it. P.S. the canal water is bad because it’s dirty, but the views of the canal houses are cool.

On April 18th, I was doing the route with my daughter and my dog. It was super great. I give 5 to the staff. I asked them if I could go with my physically disabled brother, and they always made it easy for us to access the boat. I also take this opportunity to recommend that you stop for a drink at the BAR DEL CANAL and enjoy the views. The staff were also very friendly.

A pleasant walk. Who wouldn't like to have a house there?
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Better known as Little Venice and it really is worth it, especially if there are children because on the journey when you reach a lake the kids can drive the boat and have a blast. I recommend doing it early in the morning to avoid lines. We were a group of 18 people and since we needed 3 little boats we didn’t have any problems. It’s a beautiful walk where you can see spectacular houses and it’s another pleasant experience that we put in our backpack.

Very nice and relaxing for a day out
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
We decided to visit the area as part of our itinerary in Girona. After having seen Venice, Setes..etc, how could we not go to the area? One can see the convenience for the owners of having their little boat at their doorstep. A great variety of luxurious homes, the same goes for the boats. The streets, in general, are neglected, somewhat dirty and deteriorated.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
We did the tour with 6 people, 4 adults and 2 children. It cost us 70 euros and we went on a quite large red motor boat, to be honest, the boat goes super slow and the tour lasted about 40 minutes. It's good for seeing the different houses in the area but it's not crazy.
Translated from Spanish
Low rating for following the rules….
Positive experience:
Ideal for having a different time, especially with kids. A bit expensive for just one hour, although it feels long... You have to try it at least once. All for the little one to feel like a ship captain for a day!
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
A fabulous experience with family, worth doing on some occasion, we took the 4-hour option and it gave us plenty of time to enjoy the sea and its nooks and everything without a boat captain's license, hahaha.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
The service was fantastic. Very good price. We were 2 adults and 2 children older than 12 years, and they charged us for 2 adults + 2 kids, much to the delight of our strained pockets.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Bittersweet experience. They have a stall on the main street, we bought the ticket there and were told that we had to go down to the canal to catch the boat. There they told us to wait. After 15 minutes and asking for the second time, they told us that they had to give us a time, that the people at the stall above hadn’t informed them... And they gave us the time for 25 minutes later, so people who arrived later than us got on the boat before us and in total we waited almost 40 minutes since we bought the ticket. Had we known from the beginning, we would have thought better about it. The staff was nice, but the organization needs to be reviewed. On the other hand, the boat is motorized (I'd say it's gasoline), while the eco boats from the competition are electric and less noisy. Once on the boat, the ride was pleasant, the boat is easy to handle and we could bring our dog along. Without the organizational setbacks, it would have been a much better experience.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
We loved the boat ride we rented for 70 € for one hour. The attention from the crew was excellent. It's definitely worth exploring the canals; this village is beautiful. The kids had a great time on the boat. The only downside was that it took us half an hour to walk from the motorhome parking since it's 3 km away, and the kids found it tiring.

Positive experience:
A lovely place! Two adults and one child for €55 an hour, although with 40 minutes you have enough time to go around the canal... During the trip, you see spectacular boats and houses... The experience is 100% recommended, especially for families since the boats don't go very fast and it's a peaceful boat ride.

A pleasant experience. We were attended by a very friendly girl from Zaragoza. The boat she recommended was great, spacious, easy to handle, comfortable, and fast. The pre and post service from the monitors was excellent, very friendly, and for the slight price difference with others that are more economical, '5€ in total', the quality of the little boat was unmatched.

Super fun, there are four of us and we opted for the 'river' option..., it's very easy to handle, most of the time my child has carried it, but it's an activity for any age. It's very clear, we will definitely do it again.

Fantastic experience:
Rental boats with a canopy, €25 per person, a route of about 8km and about 40-60' to leisurely navigate, no boat license needed, beautiful views, and you can see the incredibly large houses with their boats, although it is the inner canal, there is boat traffic. It's great to go once.

Very cool. Super fun. Kids can also drive. Very nice. We took an ecological one for 8 people. Children aged 5 and under did not pay. We were 4 adults and a 9-year-old girl and we paid 85€ for one hour. It's worth it. The kids are having a blast

Fantastic experience:
The walk and the boats were very good... But the service was EXCELLENT!! very good atmosphere and lovely with the kids. Between the day I went to ask and the day we rented, we spoke with 6-7 people and all of them had a smile on their face and a great vibe. They even altruistically helped me later with my engine, which turns out is the same one they use and have by the dozens. A perfect ten!

Fantastic experience:
We were surprised by the "Catalan Venice", a whole conglomerate of canals where yachts navigate and dock right at the owner's doorstep. To visit it, the kids from Los Barkitos offer you a boat with 5 or 8 seats for a one-hour ride along the main canal. It’s very simple, you operate it with a lever that has 3 positions: neutral, forward, or reverse. There's no significant danger, as the speed is very low, and if you don't act crazy and enjoy the ride, you'll have a very pleasant time. In the end, you have the option to take 1 or 2 photographic souvenirs. Highly recommended!

The boat ride is very beautiful. Especially at sunset. An explanation of the route without the background noise of the engine is lacking.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
The girl at the ticket booth was super friendly and pleasant, great service. The walk is lovely, with the little boat you can explore the entire main canal and the lake, with incredible views of the houses. Relaxed and family-friendly atmosphere. The best part is that you can take your pets on the boat without any issues, that is a big plus. Highly recommended 100%!!!

The kindness and excellent attention. They try to adapt to the suggestions/needs of the customer. Variety of little boats so you can have an unforgettable hour in Spanish Venice.

Positive experience:
The little boat we got was poorly maintained, a part of the seats was broken, and it was hard to lean back properly. Still, we enjoyed the ride through the canals a lot.

Thank you.

Great experience! Highly recommended for families with kids! Enjoying the canals of Empuriabrava or the views of Roses from the sea with the barkitos family was awesome! They also make stops at incredible coves in the area where you can take a dip or practice snorkeling.

Fantastic experience:
Excellent for a tour through the canals of Empuriabrava! They rent you the boat for 1 hour and you follow a pre-established route. It's so easy to drive that in our case my older daughter drove it and was delighted!! It's fabulous to see the houses and boats from the same canal. If you visit Empuriabrava, renting one of these boats to navigate through the canals is almost a must! It will be a magnificent experience that the whole family will enjoy!

For about €60 (3 adults and 1 child) you get a tour of approximately 1 hour. The boats are easy to drive and you can enjoy the canal. As an experience to do something different, it's actually quite good.

Positive experience:
Friendly service, we had to wait about an hour but in front they have a terrace with some great juices, if you want to visit Ampuriabrava you have to navigate through its canals to appreciate the magnitude of the marina, highly recommended, we went over the allotted time and they didn’t say anything.

Good boats and well maintained, very friendly staff, they take a photo before you leave and then sell it to you. I think it's better than the others, more variety of boats and also a big boat that goes on a route through the Gulf of Roses.
