Ellie was amazing at keeping the smallies engaged and so enthusiastic with them. We big ones learned a lot too and a real lesson in discovering the details right in front of us and not just rushing on quickly. She didn’t overload the littlies with facts, but instead kept them looking for themes and motifs that were repeated. And they didn’t have to walk far and she knew toilet stops whenever necessary. In short she is both knowledgeable and enthusiastic and we had a great afternoon. Treasure hunt for our little treasures

Ellie is a fantastic english speaking host that is very knowledgeable about the tour to Familia de Singrada and surroundings. Taking you step by step from the outside and giving you enough information to really enjoy the inside makes this experience absolutely worth booking. It’s good value for money. Thanks EllieA Breathtaking experience

Ellie was fabulous! She really really knows her stuff. Filled us in on all things Gaudi and more. Easy to communicate beforehand, very responsive. No complaints. Great tour! Nothing left out

Sagrada Familia in itself is an amazing experience. The guide was knowledgeable and well structured but tended to lose focus a couple of times. Based on our experience this tour seems to be overpriced - 200€ for an hour outside the church plus tickets to go inside on your own is a bit much.Knowledgeable and well structured

We thoroughly enjoyed our 90 minutes with Ellie on the Sagrada Familia tour. She is wonderfully warm and entertaining, and very knowledgeable. After a long day touring on our feet, we doubted whether our girls would be okay for another tour - and then they met Ellie and were hooked! Thank you so much, Ellie.Entertaining, warm and knowledgeable host

We really enjoyed our tour with Ellie! She gave us great information about the Sagrada Familia that we would have never seen had she not pointed all of the details out. She was very friendly and informative, and gave us nice tips about the city.Great tour guide!

We had an incredible experience with Ellie from With Locals for our Gaudí tour along Passeig de Gràcia and the Sagrada Família. She was punctual, incredibly knowledgeable, and brought the architecture to life with her engaging stories and deep insight. Ellie was also fantastic with our kids—warm, patient, and able to keep them captivated the whole time. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. 5+ stars, highly recommended!Ellie was awesome

Ellie is wonderful and has this tour perfected to a tee ! It was my first trip to Barcelona with my boys age 8 and 9. She managed to engage them all the way through and also kept it super interesting for me in the process too . Appreciated all the extra hints and tips too ! Fabulous tour !

Ellie was punctual, delightfully friendly, very knowledgeable about all things Gaudi without going into every minute detail (which might have bored us). She individualized our experience to include everything we asked to see. She also gave us a couple of great suggestions about other things to do during our visit to Barcelona. Although it was rainy, it was a perfect day.Perfection
