A great tour with the best guide ever
Alessandro gave us quite possibly the best tour we’ve ever had. His expert understanding of history provided excellent context to the city of Barcelona. He shared some of the city’s best kept secrets and had my teenage kids engrossed. I would highly recommend Alessandro as a guide for anyone visiting this magical city. Doing the tour at the beginning of your trip will set you up to make the most of Barcelona.

Awesome tour with Sebastian
Awesome tour with Sebastian - Grounded history, engaging, started at Gran Teatre del Liceu, went into the Gothic quarter, into the Jewish quarter, sharing the historic significance of each section. He was a great sport as it was pouring and shared a super comprehensive restaurant list and his favorite rock and metal bar. Would definitely take another tour with him next time we're in Barcelona!
