"If you take only one tour while in Barcelona, take the “Gaudi Walking Tour & Sagrada Familia Skip the Line” tour with Ellie! We loved, loved, loved this tour! Ellie’s knowledge of Gaudi and the intricacies and symbolism in his buildings is excellent and made Gaudi’s buildings so more much interesting and fascinating than they already are. Ellie has a great personality and made us feel extremely comfortable and cared-for from the very beginning of the tour. She also made great recommendations for shopping and dining. Cannot recommend this tour with Ellie strongly enough! If we are ever back in Barcelona, booking a tour with Ellie will be the first thing we do :)."
"My wife and I had a fantastic tour with the brilliant Bianca… she took us on a 3 hour Gaudi tour which not only brought to life the wonderful Gaudi architecture… but also the broader Barcelona City context and Gaudi’s genius - a man well ahead of his time… Bianca is a fantastic guide and really made sure we covered what mattered most to us…. and also gave us some handy restaurant tips too… she is a pleasure to be with and her enthusiasm is infectious… we thoroughly recommend her… "
"Maria’s tour in Barcelona was spectacular! She was informative, easy to understand, personable, knowledgable, friendly, and made our Gaudi experience unique & fun. Our family learned a lot & the hours flew by. I highly recommend using her as your local guide. Tickets were secured quickly, entry was quick/efficient, and she was a pro at grabbing transportation in between areas. If you want an incredible experience…book Maria. "

"Our family enjoyed learning so many of the details that are usally missed. Philippe is clearly passionate abou the history of his homeland, his culture and the history that shaped it. We had some crazy rain while on bikes and he managed to make it fun fron the start to end. He also gave us some awesome recommendations for suitable brunch and dinner spots. Hope to cross paths again in the future!"
"We had a great evening with Frederico. He took us to some really fun, tapas places that we would have never found on our own. Lots of great food and drink, and also great conversation about the different places and their history."
"Ellie was fantastic! So knowledgeable and full of insights. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with her. Would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to experience a guided tour. "
