Noelia give us experience for life she was rich with information and very fun and interesting facts we love it so much
If I could give Marcelo 10 stars I would. He was so kind and knowledgeable about Dali’s art and life. He gave us just the right amount of info and had fun stories. If you are a fan of Dali, you should take this tour. You will have a better appreciation for his art and thought process.
A great tour and the best guided, Gaspar.
Gaspar was excellent. Very knowledgeable, friendly and flexible.
This was such an amazing event. The museum was amazing, the drive was smooth, the wait times were exceptional, and prices very reasonable. Our tour guide, Noelia, was SPECTACULAR! Not only was she super kind and easy to talk to but she had the sense of also being interested in our tour, which is not easy to find with a lot of guides. She added so much perspective into this whole tour and with her background of Dali that we could have engaging conversations the ENTIRE TIME we were with her. The lunch was fantastic and fresh with such relaxing beach time after which was much needed after the previous days of our vacation which was a LOT of walking all day everyday. This was my first time in Spain and I would not only return but also recommend this tour to any of my friends and family that would visit and would recommend they ask for Noelia! My husband said that this visit has been his all time favorite visit to Barcelona/Spain.
Fabulous day, guide was waiting for us at our hotel ,& it turned out to be a private tour . Her knowledge of Dali allowed us to learn so much more than had we been alone. The stop in Girona was beautiful w a table by the sea. Noelia was fun to be with & we enjoyed learned so much about Barcelona. Ask for her !!
amazing experience ,esp because our guide noelia was fabulous.I would do it again!!
The entrance fee was not included in the tour. Was not aware until the return trip and we own the tour guide for three tickets. I went back and confirm tour email and entry was not included. In my opinion if you are doing a tour entry fee should be included.
Such an amazing experience. Noelia's knowledge, of Dali and surrounding areas, exceeded my expectations. From an art museum to a coastal spot on the Mediterranean, this tour is a must!
Vincent, our guide did a great job of coordinating the day so it went smoothly, despite a major traffic issue because of accident. He is very personable and really knows his stuff. Ask any question about Dali or the area and he can answer it. He offered great suggestions as to where to go, where to change for the beach and what to avoid. He even taught us how to use our elbows, if necessary, to make sure we saw everything at the museum. Though the ride to the museum was long, the scenery along the was nice and it offered an opportunity for a quick nap. I would give this tour, and Vincent 5-stars all the way.
