Gonzalo planned a wonderful night for our group of 6. We had tapas at two different out of the way places with traditional vermouth drinks, stopped by a bakery for pumpkin empanadas and, after a basic Bachata and Salsa dance lesson, he and his girlfriend Rebecca, accompanied us to an intimate bar to try out our newly learned dance skills. Food was fantastic and dancing was so much fun. I highly recommend this outing for a group or couple. We made memories that will last a lifetime❤️ Progressive dinner and dancing!

We had a great night with Gonzalo and Rebecca learning Salsa and Bachata. We arranged the experience as part of a hen party and it was definitely a highlight of our trip. A fantastic night, would highly recommend. Bachata and Salsa Lesson

We had a nice time with Gonzales and his girlfriend going to tappas bars and a salsa club. The only remark I’d like to make is that I expected a professional dancer ..... and what we got was a fun evening with a nice couple who like to show guests around and enjoy dancing. I think this should have been better clarified. Also the price for something nice but amateur should be different. Nice

The evening was awesome for our four tenage granddaughters we brought to Barcelona! Gonzalo has a warm welcomg personaity and is very attentive to his dancers! His girlfriend was fun and helpful. First we learned the steps, and then we went to a typical small Barcelona venue to dance with the crowd... all there to share dancing and fun together. It was a great night for us all!

Gonzalo and his girlfriend Rebecca were excellent teachers and guides to two inexperienced dancers. Gonzalo explained what to expect and has a very warm and welcoming nature. We had a fun filled night of learning and highly recommend Gonzalo and Rebecca as teachers to those who are looking to have an amazing experience. Latin Dance Night

Gonzalo is not only a fan but also an organizer and preacher of Latin dances. I still remember when you brought us to a competition of Salsa, that night I was deeply attracted by the fancy dance. You organized the Kizumba beach, which was a lot of fun to dance and beach lovers. You also teach very well, and you are always patient with us beginners. The most important is that you showed me the spirit of dancing is not to reach a high level, but to enjoy the moment.
Gracias por enseñarme la maravilla de baile Latino!Latin Dance Night

Gonzalo did an amazing job customizing and tweaking the tour as it progressed, paying attention to what I found most interesting and adding more of that and less of other things. He’s patient, knowledgeable and passionate about his city.
Overall - fantastic experience. I highly recommend him. Amazing historic tour

I signed up for 10 Tastings in Barcelona with Gonzalo.
Food tastings were awesome. I did get more than just the food. Also learned a lot of interesting info on history and also gained insights on the life of a local.
Enjoyed thoroughly the time spent. Did not feel like a structured tour but more like a casual stroll through neighborhoods with food and drink stops.
Great food and great coversation.Great food and conversation.

We had originally booked this tour with a different guide but this was changed to be with Gonzalo instead. He contacted us to change the time which we were happy to do, but then cut our 3 hour tour short by 45 minutes. We were a bit disappointed with this. He was an interesting guy, just would have loved the full 3 hours that we’d booked. Interesting, but shorter than expected

We had the best afternoon with Gonzalo. Gonzalo shines a fascinating light on the history of Barcelona as we walk through its current form. He is so attentive to our interests and he brings that in as he goes. We had delicious treats along the way, he had great suggestions of further fun to be had in the city and we covered so much in our 3 hours. Nothing touristy or cheesy. Definitely our best afternoon in Barcelona thanks to Gonzalo. We loved the old hospital complex the most - it was enlightening!Gonzalo brings Barcelona alive for us!

Gonzalo was a wonderful guide for myself and my friend. His knowledge growing up in Barcelona and of all the great places to visit made our trip wonderful. We went to historical, beautiful sites; ate tapas and drank local favorite beverages that were in trendy, non-touristic neighborhoods; got to experience some salsa dancing; and learned about the culture of Catalonia and Barcelona. Gonzalo made all the difference in this trip being a fantastic one. I highly recommend him as a warm, welcoming host to this great city. He will work to customize your tour so that it fits your desires and schedule. Great trip! Thank you!Fantastic trip into the best of Barcelona!

I can't say enough good things about our tour with Gonzalo! He was so amazing that I sent my sister his info while we were on the tour because she's heading to Barcelona nextnweek. We booked the market tour with him and it was perfection! He shared a ton of history as we walked between tours and we also sampled some amazing local items. He clearly had a relationship with the vendors and they treated us all so kindly. I loved hearing the history of some of the food. He was a fun and happy guide and my kids have compared every guide to him since we got off. "This tour was good, but Gonzalo made ours more personal " definitely book with him!!!Definitely book with Gonzalo!!

Of all the tours I've taken in my life, Gonzalo is the first whose tour truly showed how passionate he is about his city. He worked with us regarding time constraints and drink preferences. He was beyond respectful to both my mother and myself, and just so helpful in general. Please do yourself a favor and tour with Gonzalo as you will leave with a new found love for Barcelona! Thank you Gonzalo for the honor of taking your tour!!I love this man!

I was here in Barcelona for a conference and arranged for myself and a few others to do this tour. We all had an absolutely INCREDIBLE time with Gonzalo. Been to Barcelona a couple of times before as a tourist but never learned as much in a whole weekend than we did in the 3 hours. Great food and drink experience. Thank you so much 🙏 Great is not good enough for Gonzalo

I would definitely go again around Barcelona with Gonzalo. He was extremely informative, never rushed around, and answered whatever questions you had. On top of that, we were also excited to see him Latin dancing near the beach the next day as we too love latin dancing.
Thank you Gonzalo!!!!The best guy for the experience

Gonzolo was great! He was super communicative when we first started planning our personalized tour. We met with him on a Sunday and he did a great job pre-booking some free museums and got us right to the most FUN parts of them so that the kids were happy as well. We ended the day with 2 Tapas restaurants! He gave us SO much good information in a way that made it easy and fun to understand. Highly recommend! Great tour of Barcelona!

We met Gonzalo in Barcelona and the moment the tour started, he made suggestions in terms of his plan for the rest of the tour while he also ask us about what we wanted to see. We
had three things we wanted to do and he accommodated all three. At each tour site, he shared the right amount of history and backgrounds for the site and kept making sure that we understood. He also provided good Cantonese interpretation so that we understood a lot more about the tour site. He is very thoughtful, kind, and knowledgeable and gave us a very good tour with his passion and heart. We do highly recommend Gonzalo as you will not be disappointed!! We are so glad and thankful that you were available while we are in Barcelona! Gonzalo is simply good

We had the pleasure of going on a tapas tour with a Gonzalo, a local guide and I must say, it was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide took us to three incredible tapas restaurants that were off the beaten path and away from the usual tourist crowds.
The first restaurant we went to had a cozy, authentic atmosphere and the tapas were simply delicious. Our guide recommended some local favorites and even helped us order. We tried everything and every bite was packed with flavor.
The second restaurant was a hidden gem that we never would have found on our own. The atmosphere was lively and the tapas were just as impressive as the first restaurant.
Our final stop was at another hidden gem. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming.
Overall, Gonzalo was knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to get off the beaten path and experience authentic tapas in a local setting. Thank you for an incredible experience!Book This Amazing Tapas Tour!!!

Thanks to Gonzalo we had a great introduction to Barcelona to start our 3 day break. The tour was informative and as promised gave us a good insight into the more hidden side of Barcelona. Gonzalo also gave us some great ideas for drinks and food for the rest of our trip. Would really recommend WithLocals! Fabulous tour

What a fun evening! Gonzalo is a super knowledgeable guide and took us to three authentic places that had delicious tapas. They were so good that we ended up ordering a few extras along the way. He told us about the history of tapas, as well as ran point on ordering us wine so we could get a flavor for the region (all were terrific).
At the end of the tour, Gonzalo took us to an amazing location that’s fairly new in the area — my husband and I ended up staying and hanging out for awhile.
Would definitely book another tour with Gonzalo, but would also look at WithLocals in other cities we visit — such a fantastic concept. Touring with Gonzalo is a MUST

Gonzalo was fabulous and extremely knowledgeable about food and history. Overall he was such a great guide, and super kind. We got amazing food and he seemed to know all the best places. At the end he also took us to see a great view of the city! This tour included a good amount of history as well. It seemed to be a mix of history and food. This tour was amazing overall and great with kids. However, one critique I would have is it only has 2 food stops. I think including a third stop would have been nice even though the food and history was great. This tour was a lot of fun!Had a great time!

We did this as our first activity when we arrived to Barcelona. Gonzalo was wonderful and helped jump start our trip. We loved everything we saw! We only had two tastings, maybe it was due to the time of day we went, but everything we ate was fantastic. We began our tour with churros with chocolate and then ended our tour with delicious tapas. We expected to taste more food due to the title of the tour, so if you want more than 2 stops of food, just be vocal about what you want from your private tour! Gonzalo is more than accommodating and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him.Worth the experience

Had a fabulous tour with Gonzalo in Barcelona! Gonzalo was flexible as we had to alter the time slightly and he had wonderful knowledge of Barcelona and took us to little back places, we would never have found on our own.
The food was simply delicious and we also enjoyed the drinks!
Gonzalo helped us with other suggestions for our limited time in Barcelona! I would highly recommend this tour!

This trip was supposed to be strictly about food. That’s what I paid for and expected no more. During our trip, he made sure that my wife and I were having a good time. He asked questions what we like and didn’t like and he adjusted expertly. What was supposed to be a foodie trip also became a history tour and also a scenic tour. Why? because he can sense that my wife and I will enjoy them. He has that innate capability to read what we wanted to do. It was such a good experience for us because he immersed us in the city. We went to places that are not touristy, cut through roads that only locals knew, and got an experience of Barcelona that only a local can provide. Gonzalo is the perfect essence of what withlocals should be. I hope that future visitors book a tour with Gonzalo and have an experience that is memorable and tailored specifically for them.Gonzalo made our trip Barcelona
