“Wow! What a great tour” – Tripadvisors
We took the day tour while visiting Barcelona on a Cruise, we had limited time and a large group (with 18 people including adults and children) so time was a bit tight, but the tourguide managed it beautifully. We started the tour with a scenic view of the city from Mount juic, where we were introduced to the layout and plans that led to one of the nicest cities in Europe. After that, we drove to the Ramblas where our group was introduced to the Casa Batlo and Casa Mila, the two masterpieces by Antoni Gaudi. Our tour guide masterfully steered our group through many requests. Some of us wanted to visit Camp Nou (a must for Soccer fans) while others wanted some time to shop, both groups were cared for to our complete satisfaction. Our next stop was the tour of Park Guell, a planned community that Gaudi designed for Mr. Guell, a wealthy investor who dreamed of creating a gated community for up-and-coming families in Barcelona. To go beyond the park and into the market and houses, you need to have a reservation and tickets, which are well worth it. After an amazing lunch at 7 Portes, We finished the day with a trip to Gaudi´s Church of the Sacred family. One of the most impressive works of modern architecture that I have seen. Altogether a great way to see and experience Barcelona.

“Outstanding tour guide” – Tripadvisors
Francesc was an excellent tour guide. We took 2 local tours with him in Barcelona. One was a food tour. I would highly reccomend him if you visit Barcelona

“Walking tour of The Old Town” – TBL
Francesc was fantastic. His knowledge of Barcelona was complete. We asked him to modify his normal intinerary to accommodate our cruise ship schedule. We were there for 2 different days but not enough to do an 8 hour tour. Francesc modified and combined this tour and his tour of gaudi inspirations, I believe it’s the 06 tour. His passion for the history, art, food, and beauty of his city is inspiring and made our visits something we will always remember.

Francesc’s Response: It was a pleasure Bruce. All what I want is that you get a great memory. Thanks

“The Jewish Barcelona” – TBL
Frances did an amazing job of explaining the historical aspects of The Jews in Spain and the Spanish Inquisition. We could not have had a better experience. He really did a great job of sharing small pieces of history with us. He packed every minute of our time with him with interesting information. All 9 of us had a great morning.

Francesc’s Response: Hi Nancy. I’m very happy to know that you and your group of friends have enjoyed both tours. All the best

“Market & Food Stores: see and taste” – TBL
what a tour of the Barcelona food scene, from an explanation on ham to seeing nuts roasted in wood burning oven. Great tour guide

“All Barcelona in 4 hours” – TBL
I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of my tour of Barcelona with Francesc. He arrived at my hotel and proceeded to show me the wonderful sights of Barcelona as only a true native could. He was organized and extremely informative. I truly believe I was shown many things in Barcelona that I would never have seen without the services of Francesc. Thank you.

Francesc’s Response: Thank you Mary Jane. It was a pleasure to spend that afternoon with you

“Walking tour of the Old Town” – TBL
Francesc provided an excellent tour, full of well-presented history. We typically take tours of ‘Old Town’ areas and this is one of the best we have ever taken.

Francesc’s Response: Thanks Earl. It was a pleasure to meet you and your wife

“Kind and Helpful” – Tripadvisors
We had a 4 hour tour with Olga who was very nice, helpful and informitive. She explained us the Sagrada Familia and some of the monuments in the city center. She is very nice and child-friendly as well. We will definatly do this tour again in our next visit in Barcelona. Wonderful Tour!

“The joy of Learning the details from a local!”  – Tripadvisors
We booked this tour last minute and were very lucky to have Olga with us! Not only she gave us detailed information about Gaudi, La Sagrada Familia, but also she gave us some many tips, advise, insight about the city, restos, sights, how to get around, people… My 2 sons, age 7 and 10 kept asking so many questions and she replied them all patiently! She has such a positive vibe with kids! I’d love to join her Eating&Shopping tour next time as she knows the genuine, authentic ones by heart! She even helped us planning the rest of our stay and showed great spots on our way in the city. I advise her to anyone who really wants to discover Barcelona like locals! She speaks about 6 languages and even some Turkish, as she stayed there for sometime!

Francesca was very knowledge and able to share his knowledge and passion for the people and history of Barcelona in an informative, interesting, and humorous way. He was careful to engage our children and ensure that they too were getting something out of the tour. He went beyond the role of a simple tour guide and set up transportation and recommendations for eateries as well.

Francesc’s Response: Thanks Melissa. Your children are lovely I’m happy to have engaged them. I always say: If children are fine, parents are fine too
