"Marina is wonderful and has made our first time in Barcelona memorable. Rather than a guide, it was like we were meeting a friend. Being from Barcelona, Marina knew some great spots to show us in the Gotic areas. As to the tapas tour, it was all local and something we will always remember. Marina is the best and highly recommended!!!"
"Nice and good warm and fun guy to show us around the city!"

Great tour - brilliant views
"Ellie was a great guide, took her time in explaining the detail of the Sagrada to us - we did a 360 degree tour of the outside, with detailed explanations of the whole church, really amazing. Learnt so much. "
"Tomas was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, friendly and accommodating!!! Our trip to Montserrat was over the top. Not only was the view and the history of this magical gem so wonderful, but Tomas added so many special pearls to make it a complete experience! We came back from this trip feeling very fulfilled and full of reflection! I would recommend his tour expertise 100%!!! Thank you Tomas "
"Everything from start to finish was first class! The meet up was easy, he guided us through the train ticket process all the way to the cog railway. Marcel is friendly and knowledgeable, caring and thoughtful. A huge asset to any tour experience. The monastery is incredible and we even made the hike up to St Michael’s cross overlooking the valley. To show how great Marcel is, he even walked us back to the Metro and made sure we were on the right train and knew the right stop to get off! What a great guy! "

Review about Federico
"Federico was a wonderful guide - highly recommend that you book him! Knowledgable, funny, and very engaging guide. Having him for three hours was great. I enjoyed the personal touches, like showing us random shops. Extra props for him helping us on the subway during a very busy festival - we wouldn't have made our next event without his help. "

"Laura is an amazing tour guide and we highly recommend her! She planned two days of customized tours for our group of four and we were thrilled with her tour plans for us which included a perfect cross section of the old city plus modernista architecture. She was patient with our questions and sensitive to our group's needs. Laura also made additional recommendations for us. all of which were spot on. Her initial communication with us helped quide and instruct us how to prepare for our tours. Laura's professional architectural and tour guide experience plus her personal warmth is an unbeatable combination! Touring with Laura was the highlight of our trip to Barcelona!"
