Perfecto

Fabulous tour with Liliia!
"We loved every minute of our tour with Liliia. She added a lot of additional not well known anecdotal information to our Picasso tour and also included more information about Barcelona and Guadi we had not received before. She was a delight!"

Great Picasso/history tour
"Together with our teenage daughters we did a tour with a Picasso theme. Sebastian did a great job making it very engaging and bringing history to life. He adapted it to our interests, mixing in other interesting history of Barcelona, its artists and Spain in general. Good mix between walking around and taking stops at different landmarks. "

Picasso and the Gothic Quarter
"Liliia was a wonderful guide who provided a very informative and entertaining tour of Picasso’s Barcelona. We saw “hidden” treasures of Picasso’s art as well as Miro, and other street artists. We got a good feel for Picasso’s time in Barcelona before seeing the Picasso Museum. If we had more time, we would do more tours with Liliia!"
