Gothic quarter tour - We did this walking tour with Ivan and really enjoyed it. The group was small, which made it easy to ask questions and really engage. Ivan was very informative and shared so many details we never would have learned on our own. The 2.5 hours flew by and gave us such a great insight into the city. Highly recommend!

Great evening tour. - Noah was funny, knowledgeable, and entertaining. An amazing, easygoing, fact-filled tour with the perfect pace. Kept teenagers awake, a large task considering we were hot, jet lagged, and tired from two previous tours the same day. It didn’t matter because we really enjoyed this tour.

History and humor - Noah was a great tour guide to get us oriented in the barri gotic. He shared so much history - more than expected - which was a delight. He was also funny and incorporated interactive experiences for the kids. I was with my 11 year old son and he loved it. He also left us with lots of recommendations for the rest of our trip.

History, Comedy, Reality& Revommendations - History, Comedy, Reality, Recommendations- Noah gave us a thoroughly enjoyable and informative tour . We were a group of 8 total including a family with teenagers. He was animated and full of interesting tidbits about the people snd culture too . His explanations were easy to follow but not “ dumbed-down”. He got us involved without being overly directive . Really enjoyed the content, pace and delivery. We were quite pleased and tipped him generously. These guides are really a bonus to travelers especially if you take the tours early in your stay because they give you lots of insider tips to help you make the most of your visit.

Best Barcelona tour I’ve had - Best Barcelona tour I’ve had. Even my boys, age 8 and 13 loved it, which is the very first. They’ve hated every other tour they’ve been too. The guide made every bit of 2.5 hours exciting and captivating. A must do in Barcelona.
