"We had a wonderful experience on the LGBTQ walking tour in Barcelona. Our guide, Stefano, was fantastic—his love for the city was so clear and made the tour engaging from start to finish. We learned a lot about Barcelona’s LGBTQ history and culture, and Stefano also shared excellent restaurant recommendations that made the rest of our trip even better. Highly recommended!"

Epic Skate Day
"In Barcelona on a cruise with our 13 year old skater. Hit up MACBA in the morning and then met up with Mario who took our son for a tour around other local spots. He had an amazing time. When we met back up Mario was working with him on a few tricks he’s been trying. Gave us some great advice on restaurants before we left. Hooked me up with a charger for my phone which I desperately needed as well! Thank you Mario!! Definitely worth booking with Mario and we will do it again when we’re back in Barcelona. "
"Stefano was accommodating and friendly. His knowledge & passion for the LGBTQ history of Barcelona was eye-opening and enriching! I recommend Stefano and this tour."
"Thank you Stefano. It was a very informative and thoughtful tour covered many landmarks and stories of LGBTQ+. Stefano is very patient with us and great with recommendations from everything from bookstores, restaurants to ice cream. He is also very willing to share his personal stories and why he is so passionate about LGTBQ+ rights. Highly recommended!"

Excellent Tour!
"Stefano was the best tour guide ever. He was extremely knowledgeable and allowed us to customize our tour to accommodate my physical ability. He took us to all the interesting places that we would have never found on our own. I would highly recommend his tour. He has a wonderful personality and will make your tour very enjoyable. A personal thank you Stefano!"

Couldn't have asked for more!
"Oh man this tour was exactly what I had in mind. Im 34 and got to see and skate spots I've seen in videos for 20+ years. Mario took me all over the city and ended at macba. He took some awesome clips and pushed me to land tricks I don't usually do. He gave a fantastic dinner recommendation and even helped direct me via video chat after the tour on how to find it. 10/10 do it if you're a skater. "
"Stefano gave us a wonderful tour of parts of Barcelona that we otherwise would not have seen. It was very interesting and poignant to see and hear about some of the darker periods of Barcelona’s history, especially pertaining to its LGBTQ+ residents. All the more reason to appreciate the open and accepting environment here now, but also a reminder that we must never forget our history."

A wonderful tour with a wonderful host
"Mario was a wonderful guide. I booked to do the skate tour as my eldest son is doing his final year dissertation on skateboard culture. Despite none of us actually being able to skate, Mario tailored the tour so we could get the best out of it, both from a skateboarding point of view, and an 'off the beaten track' look at Barcelona too. My two boys, aged 18 and 20, loved it, and said it was the highlight of our trip. Thank you so much for your time and knowledge Mario. We totally recommend Mario as a guide and the tour itself. "
