Interested in group tours from Blanes, where is it cheaper to take?
So far I have found only the local agency Bus Plana, I have already searched FB in groups, I don’t know where to find fellow travelers on a rented car, so that I can ride together and see nearby cities on my own (we don’t drive ()

Why don't you like the local agency Bus Plana?

Bus Plana only operates in the Costa Dorada, while Blanes is the Costa Brava. at least that was the case last year. take it in street agencies, the prices are about the same for everyone.

Then check out https://www.novovira.net/ They have an office in Lloret de Mar.
And about fellow travelers on a rented car, as for me, this is a utopia. Renting a car is not that expensive to explore the area with strangers.

NatashaS, the question of what does not suit you, you have already answered camomille (thank you). We first booked hotels in the Costa Dorada, but only confirmed Blanes. Therefore, I look for information in advance to understand the pricing policy, because I want to see a lot. As for the "strangers ", last year we were invited for a company in Greece to ride around the island - we really liked it, saw a lot, and spent little)).
But in Blanes offer individual tours of 90 E / person.

Nusia, please note that the roads are mostly toll.
Group tours cost around 40-50 euros per person. If you take several - get a decent discount. You can buy tickets for the Sagrada Familia or the Aquarium on your own. From Blanes to Barcelona it is very convenient to go by train, which comes directly to Plaza Catalunya. From there, there is immediate access to the Rambla and the Gothic Quarter is within easy reach.

Thank you very much, camomille, for clearing things up a bit. I will also get acquainted with novovira.net.

Nusia, please))
do not worry. you will surely find a street agency with Russian-speaking excursions. if not in Blanes, then in neighboring Lloret for sure (there are many of them). all excursions that go towards Barça will pass through Blanes.
you can look at tickets for visiting attractions at Ticketbar (there are sometimes discounts). if you plan to climb the tower in Sagrada, book tickets in advance. The elevator lifts a limited number of people, so it is necessary to indicate a certain time of visit and places may not be available.

camomille, I went to the ticketbar, everything seems to be clear, but somehow complicated ... How can I accurately calculate the time of the visit, or do I need to order while being somewhere not far from this place? It is written that the money is not returned, and it is scary to fly by, they have not yet been in the country and their rhythm of life is not yet clear.

Nusia, elementary can be calculated. there is nothing complicated about it))) we planned in such a way that we would first go to Barça with a sightseeing tour in order to orient ourselves a little in the city, and then go ourselves to go to the Sagrada and the aquarium. Yes, it was a little rough, but in the end everything went well.
Barca can be reached by bus or train. their schedule is freely available. based on this and calculate the time. we traveled from Lloret by the first bus, which leaves at about 6-00 (whether it stops in Blanes, I don’t remember). drive a little over an hour. from the bus station to Sagrada, we walked about 40 minutes, but we booked the lift at 9-30. book the ascent to the clock tower for 12 days, you will definitely not be late. it is better to climb the Tower of Passion - the view is better from it. You need to buy tickets to the Sagrada on the official website of the cathedral. There is no commission. on Ticketbar everything is with a commission. It makes sense to buy there if there is a discount on tickets.
Download the Maps.Me and Travel Guide.Barcelona apps to your phone. they helped us a lot. Maps.Mi, if actively used, consumes a lot of energy. so duplicate applications on two phones or take a power bank.
