What To Expect
Catedral de Barcelona
Begin this fantastic walking tour at the Barcelona Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of St. Eulalia. The cathedral is a wonderful example of Gothic architecture at its finest. The Gothic Quarter is a must see when visiting Barcelona, situated in Barcelona's Ciutat Vella (Old Town). A walk through this neighborhood is a walk through European history. You will also visit the cloisters where within the courtyard live 13 white geese, known as the Well of Geese, symbolizing the years of St Eulalia’s life before she was tragically taken away by the Romans. Your entrance tickets also includes a visit to the top of the Cathedral for stunning views and photo ops!
Esglesia de Sant Felip Neri
Continue your exploration of Barcelona's Old Town strolling through Plaza Sant Felipe Neri, home to the Church of Sant Felipe Neri, a hidden gem not many travellers get to experience. Learn how the church survived the Spanish Civil War, and how it was restored to its former self.

5.00My husband and I had a wonderful tour with Patrick covering the Gothic quarter, La Sagrada Familia, and Park Guell. Patrick is very friendly and knowledgeable about the rich history of Barcelona. We enjoyed our time with him as he answered all of our questions and never felt rushed during the day. He even stayed over the tour end time to help walk us back to catch a taxi at the end of our tour. We appreciate his kindness, patience and eagerness while educating us on this amazing city.
Pabelo was very interesting and knowledgeable tour guide

5.00We loved our morning walking tour around the Gothic Quarter and Cathedral of Barcelona with Alfredo. He was so generous sharing his knowledge and historic insights of Barcelona. Getting access to the Terrace above the Cathedral was very special and the 360 degree view of the city was incredible. Such a worthwhile experience, particularly if you have limited time in the City. And if you’re lucky enough to have Alfredo as your guide, you’re in for a treat!
