"If you are considering booking a tour with Alessandro don’t hesitate to!! He was absolutely fantastic and made our time in Barcelona so enjoyable. We were lucky to be able to book five hours seeing the city with him. He pointed out many things that we would have missed out on if we had been on our own. He also made a suggestion for a lunch stop that was one of our best meals. He has a lot of knowledge and is very easy to talk to. What a pleasant way to see a beautiful city."

A Perfect Day
"We decided to have an introductory tour with Octavio within hours of landing in Barcelona. Octavio suggested he meet us at our apartment after we dropped off luggage and it was the best idea ever, as we were staying in Eixample. His English was great and he walked us around the area pointing out interesting places and telling us stories about this beautiful city. We ate tapas and Cava and then topped off our tasting with churros and dark chocolate. Octavio was the perfect ambassador of this magical city! At the end of the tour, he promised me that he would share his favorite rooftop bars, tapas spots and restaurants - and boy did he deliver! We got so many recommendations to choose from. It truly was a perfect day. Thank you Octavio!"

Maria made the whole time great fun and very interesting. Her knowledge and passion was wonderful to share.
If you need a friendly, lovely, lady to show you the sights, Maria is highly recommended."
"We had an excellent time on our market tour and tasting with Elvira! She picked out so many delicious food and drinks for us and gave us an extensive list to use on the rest of our trip. She was fun, knowledgeable, and personable, which kept the conversation going the whole time. We also value her insight and passion about Catalan culture and Barcelona! We wholeheartedly recommend!"

We walked around a neighborhood we would never have discovered on our own and learned a lot about Barca food and wine culture along the way. Highly recommend!
