«Walking tour of the Old Town» – TBL
Francesc is a gracious and delightful «host» for Old Town Barcelona. He started with a helpful map on his digital tablet and took us through a well-planned walking tour. He was responsive to our questions and enthusiastic throughout. Francesc’s English is less proficient than optimal–his accent was sometime difficult for me to negotiate (to be fair, however, my wife did much better)–but his character, knowledge, and enthusiasm deserve the 5-star rating.

Francesc’s Response: Thanks for your comments Rachael. I’m happy that you had a great time with me. You had a deeply knowledge of our history and it made the tour more interesting. It’s good to know that I have to make an effort in my pronunciation – it make me improve. Have a great day

Francesc was WONDERFUL. HE is so knowledgeable, friendly and patient. My older sister has a hip problem and cannot walk fast or alot. He went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my sister was able to keep up and not get too tired. We cannot say enough nice things about him….If we could rate him at 100 stars… WE WOULD!!!!!! WE have already recommended him to friends who are planning travel to Barcelona this year. Muchos Gracias Tours by Locals and Francesc!!!! Job well done!!!!!!!!!

Francesc’s Response: Thank you Denise, Diane and Deborah!!! I have enjoyed sharing my city in your company

«Gaudi Tour: Sagrada Familia and more» – TBL
Francesc is very knowledgeable about Barcelona, our new favorite European city. We started on day one with Park Buell and Sagrada Familia. (No waiting in line!) and on Day 2 the historic city and Las Ramblas. He also accommodated our desire to visit the Picasso museum and again took us right in past all the lines! Highly recommended as Barcelona is stunning, a real surprise to us. We will definitely return

Francesc’s Response: Hello Gordon. It’s nice to read that you have «fall in love» of my city, besides I have contributed a little bit to it, it’s even better. Please, if you come back to Barcelona, let me know. Best

Francesc provided us with a wonderful tour of 3 Gaudi sites (Park Guell, Sagrada Familia, and La Pedera). He had a wide breadth of knowledge of the sites and gave us valuable insights on their history and significance. All 4 of us enjoyed the tour and highly recommend Francesc. Thank you very much!

Francesc’s Response: Thank you Kyra. I had a wonderful afternoon with your party.

We were so lucky to have Francesc as our guide! We are a large family with kids of different ages, but he managed to include everyone and to create inspiration for each one of us! Francesc is smart, professional, attentionate and has great expertise when it comes to Barcelona’s history and the incredible world of Gaudi! We only had one afternoon with Francesc, but we all wished that we had more time to spend with Francesc on tour. We will have to go back to Barcelona and try to book Francesc again!

Francesc’s Response: It will be my pleasure to guide you and your family again. I’m looking forward to seeing you again.
