From it´s humble beginnings 2000 years ago as an innocuous fishing port to it´s modern international standing explore the city´s growth from Roman consolidation, Christian and Jewish persecution, imperial expansion, industrial explosion, political identity, artistic flourishing.Meet the ghosts of martyred Christians, iconic painters, war combatants, religious legends, glory hunting kings, medieval hangmen and many more, all of whom have left a cultural and physical mark on the windy, close- quartered streets of this, the oldest part of Barcelona. A native English speaking guide living in the city for 13 years, with a Spanish wife with lots of long time Barcelona friends, I have lots of first hand information about what lies within the Catalan people, how what makes them "tick", and more importantly, why! And as a professional Actor I´ll bring to life the stories, humour, triumphs, disasters that go to the soul of the Catalan people. Oh yeah, we´ll also meet a VERY HAIRY CATALAN MAN!!

5.00I really enjoyed this tour. Patrick our tour guide (although long winded) was really good. Not only knowledgable - but passionate. I learned a lot on this tour, saw all the sights in the Gothic Quarter and really recived a glimpse into hour the community runs. This is a great tour for people that don't just want the main attractions, but a deep understanding of the culture of the virbrant city. In my opinion, a good tour guide interacts with the entire group - which is something Patrick did right from the begining. I would 100% recommend this tour and the tour guide.
Patrick’s the great

5.00On our first day in Barcelona, we took a tour with Patrick. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. Even though we were tired from our long journey, we were able to follow along and enjoy the tour. Patrick's insights provided us with a solid orientation to the city and its history. I highly recommend his tour.
