Very interesting to walk along streets learning the history. Our tour guide was very funny and accommodating. He even had us playing guessing games for small prizes.
Thank you, Sue. It was a pleasure doing the tour with the three of you. Thank you so much for your review!
Stephen was our tour guide. He gave us a very informative tour about the history of Spain from indigenous people to current situation. He explained great details on each site. 4/23 was St. George’s day. He also introduced this important date and events along the way. We enjoyed the whole trip very much and highly recommend the walking tour, especially with Stephen’s company! Thanks again! Cynthia
The Gothic Quarter in Barcelona is beautiful, very different from the rest of the city, very fascinating full of history. The Cathedral is magnificent
A very interesting activity that allows us to visit areas of Barcelona that we did not know in detail. A big thank you to the guide Teresa, very pleasant and dynamic. The private tour makes this experience even more beautiful. To do again.
Detailed and enjoyable tour, in private, with which to discover the historic center of Barcelona full of charm. Robert, a magnificent guide, shows and documents perfectly each of the places that make up the itinerary, also explaining an endless number of events that took place in the area (such as the printing press that appears named in Don Quixote). Highly recommended!
Nos alegra mucho saber que os gustó el tour! Esperamos volver a veros pronto. Un fuerte abrazo :)
To make absolutely walk in the old quarter of Barcelona, take the small narrow streets, many museums in this perimeter
Nous vous remercions sincèrement d'avoir participé à notre visite guidée. C'était un plaisir de vous accompagner lors de votre découverte de notre destination. Nous espérons que vous avez apprécié chaque moment de cette expérience unique :)
Very good despite the 7€ admission Children under 12 do not pay I preferred it to the Sagrada Top access to the roof with stunning views of Barceloneta
Bonjour Lylou, Merci pour votre commentaire. Nous sommes ravi que vous ayez passé un bon moment. On espère vous revoir bientôt 🙂
Walk down the old streets, visit the cathedral, and sip a drink at the harbour end. A nice old world part of Barcelona, with cathedral to visit at a cost of a few euros. Buy some post cards and stop to see the geece. Plenty restaurants and bars to rejuvenate your batteries.
Thank you for you review, and we hope you enjoyed Dianne! We expect to see you soon :)
Very beautiful, both the cathedral and the context in which it is inserted. We stayed several days, in Barcelona, but we went , almost every day to see her. Don't miss it
Grazie mille per la tua opinione e siamo contenti che ti sia piaciuta!
