5.00We had a wonderful half day out with Katty on this tour with lots of history and beautiful scenery thrown in. Katty was earnest and engaging, and warm. She gave us great recommendations at the market and took us to the most scenic spots at Montjuic Castle. Definitely a great half day out in Barcelona!

3.00Jose was a great guide. He was very friendly and explained the history of all the areas we went to very well. I was disappointed because we didn’t go to a couple of the sites listed: Parc Montjuic or Palau Guell. We basically just saw the market and castle. Wasn’t really worth the price.
Passionate and well looked after

5.00Very informative, got to see the other side of Barcelona. Our guide was very good, passionate about the history of Barcelona and she looked after us very well. The 4 of us was the only participant so we get to ask a lot of questions and the flexibility to move a bit slower. Enjoyed the tour immensely.

5.00Jose Carlos was a phenomenal guide on this small tour. He was extremely knowledgable about everything we saw and very accommodating when we were running late. He was able to answer all questions thrown at him by me and my kids and it was a delightful afternoon - this is a great day one tour when you arrive in Barcelona!
