Isabel was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and personable, especially given that my family is a bit more introverted; she still made us feel very comfortable. We learned a lot about Barcelona and went back later to take a deeper look at all the landmarks that she pointed out. With all the information she provided, we were definitely able to learn more about those visits.

Olga was our guide and she was phenomenal. Very funny, easy to understand. It was just two of us so we could customize it a bit. She imparted great local history. This walking tour supplemented another one. Olga was SOOO much better than the one offered by the bus tour. I highly recommend this tour.
