      The only way to get to know Barcelona!

      "I can't begin to say how much we enjoyed our time with Federico. He was well versed in the history of Barcelona, knew all the best spots (whethere we wanted to stop for a quick cortado or a glass of wine!) and navigated us beautifully through the Gothic Quarter, avoiding the touristic streets and large crowds. We saw a different side of Barcelona with Federico that we would not have seen on our own. In addition, he was just so pleasant to be with! "

      Amazing experience and amazing guide

      "Montserrat is an absolute must do if you’re looking for a single day excursion from the city, and Ilona was the best guide we could have asked for. She helped us navigate the trains, which we would have really struggled with if we had to do it by ourselves, and was so knowledgeable about the site and Barcelona as a whole. The Basílica and hike were incredible and a memory we will never forget. "

      Great time with a Catalan!

      "We had a great time with Maria! We were a bit busy before showing up so didn't get to plan too much in advance but upon meeting we told her what we already had planned for the trip and she filled in all the must see areas and sights we'd missed. It was a great format that worked well for us to just grab a Taxi to take us to a few different spots and spend as much time as we wanted so we weren't limited to stuff we could quickly reach on foot. Thanks Maria!"

      Adventure with family through the Pyrenees

      "My family and I had a wonderful with Stepan during this adventure. He is extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He also adapted the hike as it was rigorous for me (I had never done this type of hike before). We visited the San Gil cave and the sanctuary. It was wonderful to get out of the city. We would certainly do another excursion with him again."

      Great cultural experience!

      "Ellie was an awesome tour guide, both in making sure we saw hidden gems and learned the culture - and in sharing her personal experiences living around the city. Would not have understood or had context for city’s evolution without a local guide. Guide books and AI only share so much. Her personal knowledge as a local really added depth to our tour - and deeper appreciation for the layers of history in Barcelona. "

      Book Jordi for Barcelona!

      "One of the first things my husband and I always do when in a new city is to take a tour, as it always provides an overview of things to see and do. As per our norm, we booked a three-hour tour of Barcelona with Jordi for our guide. As a guide, he is very personable, informative and engaging. He took us to all of the highlights of the city, including the Gaudi houses, Las Ramblas, and the Gothic Quarter, among others. At each stop he provided historical background for each, helping us to understand the history of each area of Barcelona . Further, as an architect, he provided great insight on the buildings we saw. Overall, we had a great time with Jordi, and highly recommend him. In fact, if you’re reading my review, stop and just book him now-I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thanks, Jordi, for a great experience- we’ll never forget “she’s basically a plant” for quite some time! 🤣"
