Experience City tours in the best of
Barcelona with Withlocals

"Liliia was fantastic. She stepped in last minute when our original guide had a family emergency, and you’d never have known she wasn’t the plan all along. We fumbled the meeting spot and she was patient and gracious getting us sorted, then stayed later than scheduled to make sure we got the full experience. Her knowledge of Barcelona’s history and architecture is deep, and she answered every question we threw at her with real detail, not canned tour-guide lines. Beyond the expertise, she was simply a joy to spend the day with. Highly recommend, and if Liliia is your guide, consider yourself lucky."

"We had a wonderful time with Lucy "

"My 19 year old daughter and I had a wonderful time with Pili. She shared her wealth of knowledge about Gaudi’s architecture and pointed out things on the buildings that we wouldn’t have noticed on our own. She also shared the work she did as an artist on the Sagrada Família. She gave us some pointers on how to navigate the inside of the Sagrada and what we should look for. Don’t hesitate to book her if you are looking for a guide in Barcelona! "

"It was a wonderful : hours with Ellie. She was so informative not only about Gaudi, but history and architecture in general. We learned a lot about the Catalan culture previously unknown to us. "

"Excellent guide, we learned a lot! "

"Ellie was prompt and enthusiastic about Gaudi’s Park Güell, Família Sagrada. Prior to booking this tour I was under the illusion I could walk between the two sites but am glad she suggested a taxi for our family of five. Ellie was full of interesting information and context. She communicated well our meeting location. The only downsides were completely on my end- we booked the tour for the heat of the day, on the first day of our trip- a bit jet lagged, and my youngest child got sick. Ellie was gracious and flexible to expedite part of our tour to accommodate a sick kiddo. We ended our tour early but are so grateful to see two important sites in Barcelona. A guide like Ellie is essential to get the full experience and context of sites like these. While Ellie did not accompany us into the park or church, it allowed us to move through at our own pace and did not detract from the experience at all. Thank you, Ellie, for your professionalism and kindness. "

"We loved our bike tour with Brendan, what a great way to see many places in Barcelona in about 3 hours, We had excellent stops and food breaks. Beautiful hidden spots and Brendan had an amazing knowledge of history and the area. Perfect first day in Barcelona!"

"Jordi was an incredible tour guide! He was friendly, engaging, and brought a unique combination of history, architecture, and cultural insights to the tour. He was also very accommodating to our schedule and focus preferences, which we truly appreciated. We can’t imagine a better guide to share what Barcelona is all about."

"Pili was incredibly kind, informative, and exceptionally knowledgeable about Gaudí and his works. Her passion for the subject was evident from our very first email exchange and carried through every moment of the tour. I highly recommend participating in the full experience. The tour begins at a different location, followed by a taxi ride with Pili paid for by you to the Sagrada Família, where she provides a fascinating and detailed exploration of the exterior of the cathedral. I also strongly encourage you to pay the additional fee to tour the interior with her, which includes her admission and additional time. While the inside visit is not included in the base price, it is absolutely worth it and elevates the experience to another level. This was one of the most detailed and enriching tours I have ever taken. Pili combines historical expertise with a genuine personal connection to Gaudí's work, bringing his vision and legacy to life in a way that is both engaging and memorable. If you do nothing else while visiting Barcelona, take this tour and follow her recommendations. Whether you are traveling alone, with family, or with friends, the experience feels personal and tailored to your interests. Pili is warm, personable, knowledgeable, and passionate about what she does. I would take this tour again without hesitation. Thank you Pili for being me into your world during our time together."

"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… "
