5.00Ellie’s tour was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable about art, history and Catholicism, and gave us a fantastic explanation - which really added to what we had been told in an earlier walking tour. As well, she is very funny and has a great sense of fun - we loved it!
Absolute joy

5.00We had such a lovely morning with Ellie. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about the Sagrada Familia, she had a great sense of humor, was kind, and authentic. I would recommend her 100 times over. Merci, Ellie!

5.00Omar is a quiet guy who takes his time with you and listens to the wishes you have. Deviation in the program from what he has in his head is therefore also possible, of course within the time frame that one has. During this trip Omar worked with someone (I forgot the name for a moment) but he was also great! Overall a must to book.
Lunar New Year in Bangkok!

5.00We had such a fun night in Bangkok with Nok! We were jet-lagged and found Bangkok at night to be overwhelming, so we are so glad we had Nok there to show us around. We went a temple, got a Thai astrology reading, went to a night market, and then headed to Chinatown to experience Lunar New Year! Nok was super friendly and knowledgeable, she was also able to customize our tour to what we wanted to do. We really enjoyed our evening, thank you so much Nok! :)
Would do it again!

5.00Sebastian was very knowledgeable and informative. We had booked the Treasures of Barcelona: Gaudi tour but had seen the Gaudi buildings the previous day. Sebastian pivoted to giving us a tour of the Gothic area which was phenomenal! We will book him again the next time we’re in Barcelona.
Wonderfully entertaining Gaudi tour!

5.00Sebastian was an amazing guide—warm, friendly, funny. He seemed to have a bottomless source of facts, pictures, and stories about Barcelona and its rich history and beautiful architecture that really brought it all to life for my daughter and myself. And when we find our way back here, we certainly hope to work with him again! Do not miss!
We got Engaged at the Sagrada Familia

5.00Ellie was absolutely wonderful in planning our private outside tour of the Basilica de la Sagrada Familia and my plan to propose to my, now fiancé. At the appropriate time and place I gave her my phone to video and take pictures. It was absolutely perfect and she was a wonderful photographer for us! The tour and information provided were top notch and made our interior visit afterwards absolutely enjoyable. I cannot recommend Ellie more highly for great communication, outstanding information and a no rush experience that absolutely made my additional request a memory we will always treasure.
Thank you Araya!

5.00We really enjoyed our tour with Araya. The tour covered Thailand's rich history and culture, as well as some customs and tips for the subway system, ordering food, nightlife, and much more. She answered our questions, and was very funny and nice throughout. I would absolutely recommend her as a tour guide for anyone visiting Bangkok for the first time. Thank you Araya!
Sagrada Familia with Ellie of WithLocals

5.00Ellie was great. She walked us around the exterior of the basilica and explained the significance of the structures. She provided us with historical context about Gaudi and subsequent architects. Lastly, she told us what to look for once we went into the church. By the way, tickets were sold out when we tried to get them but she was able to find tickets through a third party for us. I highly recommend her tour.
