"Mario took my long time skateboarder husband out for a great tour of local skate scene, skate shops and even suggested good spots for food and music. My husband did it was like meeting up with an old friend and felt very welcome into the skate community right away. Thank you for making a 53 year old feel like a teenager again!"

"In Barcelona on a cruise with our 13 year old skater. Hit up MACBA in the morning and then met up with Mario who took our son for a tour around other local spots. He had an amazing time. When we met back up Mario was working with him on a few tricks he’s been trying. Gave us some great advice on restaurants before we left. Hooked me up with a charger for my phone which I desperately needed as well! Thank you Mario!! Definitely worth booking with Mario and we will do it again when we’re back in Barcelona. "

"Oh man this tour was exactly what I had in mind. Im 34 and got to see and skate spots I've seen in videos for 20+ years. Mario took me all over the city and ended at macba. He took some awesome clips and pushed me to land tricks I don't usually do. He gave a fantastic dinner recommendation and even helped direct me via video chat after the tour on how to find it. 10/10 do it if you're a skater. "

"Mario was a wonderful guide. I booked to do the skate tour as my eldest son is doing his final year dissertation on skateboard culture. Despite none of us actually being able to skate, Mario tailored the tour so we could get the best out of it, both from a skateboarding point of view, and an 'off the beaten track' look at Barcelona too. My two boys, aged 18 and 20, loved it, and said it was the highlight of our trip. Thank you so much for your time and knowledge Mario. We totally recommend Mario as a guide and the tour itself. "

"This was a fantastic experience! I’m 37 and have been on and off the board throughout my life, and skating in Barcelona has been on my bucket list ever since I was a kid. Mario got in touch with me within minutes of making a booking, asking how he could tailor make the tour to meet my interests. He was super friendly and had a professional demeanor. All I said was to take me around as if it was his day to skate and we did exactly that! He proposed a meeting place based on where I was staying. We met up and immediately started cruising through the streets hitting up Arc, DIY picnic and Parallel. We refueled with some local street food, talked about skating and life experiences, and even kicked off the evening with Mario’s killer cocktails at The Station. His personality had me feeling like I just met up with a childhood friend that I hadn’t seen in years! Almost every spot and route we rode Mario took time to introduce me to the locals and explain the history of the spot. This let me feel included in the community and for the next 4 days of skating I’d cross paths with familiar faces and just blend in. It allowed me to just soak up the experience to the fullest! This tour is without a doubt a must if you really want to experience skate culture in BCN, regardless of your skill level or age. Thanks again, Mario, for being a great ambassador for both the city of Barcelona and for skateboarding!!"

"Exactly as described. Mario met us in Barceloneta and took our 12 year old son to local skateboard spots. Mario shared his enthusiasm for skateboarding and gave our son, who is still new to skateboarding, lots of encouragement and advice. Our son has a fantastic time and we would definitely recommend Mario and this tour. Many thanks! "

"Skip the foot tours and go with Elvira! She is knowledgeable and can give you a much more encompassing tour of HER city with hidden gems so much more impressive and less known than the big tourist attractions. She has a lot of pride and love in the history of her city and it shows. One note: The bicycles have baskets, bring water. "

"My 13 year old son is a skateboarder and Mario went out of his way, above and beyond to give my son the best experience ever. He went on his own with Mario, I was totally confident to trust him to Mario's care for the day, he took him on a filming job as well as skating with him and showing him the city. I joined them later and watched them filming their own skateboarding tricks, Mario totally inspired my son to work harder at his skating and be positive about life. He has a memory and experience that he will value and remember for ever. I cant thank Mario enough, a truly lovely and special man."

"Mario was a fantastic tour guide for showing the skating parts of the city, and he had a lot of knowledge about the general area too. If you’re a skater, this is a must not miss day out. "

"We booked the skateboarding tour with Mario for our 4 teenage skaterboys. Unfortunately, Mario couldn’t join but he introduced us to his friend Zarco, who took the boys on tour… what a cool, charming and friendly guy! We met at Macba and went to Paral.lel and back on a more than 2 hour trip. Zarco taught them some new tricks, photographed and filmed them and added them on his socials… it was a perfect night! Thank you Withlocals for this cool activity! Thank you Mario for your quick response and the solution you offered! And last but not least, thank you Zarco for giving our kids the perfect skateboarding night in Barcelona! You rock ✌️"
