Sebastian is a hidden gem himsefl
Please do yourself a favor and book a tour with Sebastian if you can get one. His tour thru Barcelona for our family of four was the best thing we did in Barcelona. Sebastian was patient, kind and extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his city. He can tell you all about history and take you places you never knew existed and he would do it in perfect artistic manner. His English is impeccable and places he recommended are wonderful. Thank you, Sebastian for our lovely time together!

Great guide experience with Lars
Lars is a great child and adult friendly guide who is warmly welcoming you and finding a perfect mixture of information and stories about the city & tradition and friendship customizing his tour completely to your needs. He was even sending us tipps about many things like markets, ongoing events, public transports and recommendable restaurants for locals before and after our tour. Lars is the best guide we could wish for, just like a good friend we got to know. Thanks for the stunning experience 🤩
