5.00Liliia was a fantastic tour guide, showing some of the fabulous street art and lesser known parts of Barcelona. A unique twist on the city vs the tours of all the regular tourists spots. Also gave excellent recommendations for coffee and other bars/restaurants to check out. Would recommend for anyone not looking to see the same places as everyone else
Great experience in Barcelona!

5.00Liliia was a great tour guide, she asked us some interesting questions about art, told us some great history of the area, and was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area. She stopped to show us several small things that we would have otherwise missed, and also took us to some famous places that we didn't know about. It was a very intimate tour as there were only three people, this made for a nice conversation and allowed for many questions / interesting discussion!
