My husband, father, and I took this lovely tour with Andrea. She was very warm, friendly and knowledgeable. I loved how she guided us to less crowded corners of the neighborhood and shared centuries of history with us. We also stopped for a coffee midway through the tour after I told her I was jet lagged; it was very thoughtful. If I was staying longer I would take another tour with her!
Andrea's tour brought Barcelona to life for my wife and I! Every second of our time with Andrea was filled with interesting history, local insider knowledge, fun facts about the city, and delightful bites. A tour with Andrea was such a fulfilling way to get to know Barcelona. I would highly recommend booking a tour, I know I will if I return to Barcelona!
Thanks so much for your review! Hope to meet you again!
Andrea was absolutely fabulous. We had a wonderful experience walking around with her on a personal tour and getting steeped into the rich and amazing history of the area. She took time to explain everything well, was patient and pointed out so many details you would normally miss on a larger group tour. Book with her you won’t regret it.
Rod! thank you so much for your kind words! I am delighted you enjoyed the experience and hope to see you and Gina again soon on another tour!
Andrea is an expert in what she does! It really was an excellent experience, because in addition to how kind and charismatic she is, she managed to capture the history of Barcelona and leave it in our hearts. If you want to know the stories of Barcelona, the tour has to be with her.
Gracias Sofia por tu review! Me alegra enormemente que el tour haya sido una experiencia memorable para ti!
