5.00We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Barcelona walking tour with Evan. From the moment we started, he struck the perfect balance between warmth, humor, and real depth of knowledge. He has that rare ability to make history feel alive, not like a lecture, but like a series of great stories shared by a friend who genuinely loves the city. Evan’s knowledge of Barcelona is impressive without ever being overwhelming. He weaves together history, architecture, politics, and everyday life in a way that makes everything click, and his sense of humor keeps the pace light and engaging. You never feel rushed, and you never feel lost. He’s also wonderfully personable, happy to answer questions, offer recommendations, and adapt to the group naturally. If you want a walking tour that feels human, insightful, and genuinely enjoyable rather than scripted or stiff, Evan is exactly the guide you want. We came away with a much deeper appreciation for Barcelona and more than a few great stories to tell afterward. Highly, highly recommended.

5.00It was in December, low season, so the group was just 7 people. Henrieta's guide was quite interesting, she also gave a lot of hints on what to do and what to visit. She was very knowledgeable as well. Totally liked it!

5.00Henrieta was my walking tour guide for my old town Gothic ad Gaudi tour of Barcelona. She exceeded my expectations today. She was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and patient with us all and answered any questions that were asked (including an awkward one about the Spanish Civil War which most Spanish people will not talk about. As I am a vegetarian, she also sent a link about the best places to eat for me, which she did not need to do. I had an excellent 2 1/2 hours in her company, and if you are lucky enough to get her as your guide, you won't be disappointed 😀
Fabulous walking tour!

5.00Henrietta was a wonderful guide who led us a great tour about the history of the city, quirky local facts, the political issues of the region, help to purchase tickets for the metro, and insight into the genius of Gaudi. The tour was timed beautifully to walk through the very old gothic quarter the city during the light, and finish on the wide, beautifully lit up Avenue to see the two Gaudi houses, the light show at the Casa Batllo, and all the gorgeous buildings lit up for Christmas. We highly recommend this tour!
Great Tour and Excellent Tour Guide

5.00Very happy with this tour! Lena was great. The directions on meeting were very clear. It was really great to take the tour because we had already passed by a number of these places many times without even noticing them. Thanks to Lena's expert guidance, we learned a lot about the city, the history, the architecture, and the people. Lena was enthusiasti, knowledgeable, and funny..A great tour! Highly recommend.
Wonderful time with Cristina!

5.00Absolutely loved Cristina. She was the most charismatic and charming tour guide, and SO knowledgeable. We loved her personable delivery of interesting facts about both the history and architecture of Barcelona, which took a huge load off of me as "mom tour guide" to my family of four (2 teenage boys). Price to quality was excellent! The group was just our family of four and another Canadian couple, so we were able to navigate the route and subway easily. Time was just right. My 11 -year-old started to time out towards the end, but that's not abnormal as the tour was geared towards adult listeners and was not a "child" audience. Cristina also gave us a link to her recommended restaurants and stops in the area, as well as her IG page, as she is a local artist. We felt like we truly had an insider's tour of the area and totally loved this experience.
