“Barcelona and Costa Brava Guide, Francesc, Villas and Vines in October 2014” – Tripadvisors
Francesc Garcia exceeded our expectations sharing vibrant Barcelona and the Costa Brava. Francesc provided the perfect mix of history and passion that made this trip so special for our group of 12. Francesc guided us with a combination of walking tours and day trips. Francesc is a great guide and using the “whispers” (headsets) made for great commentary while wondering the sites. He is a warm and wonderful representative of Sunny Spain!

“Four hours of Gaudi! & day tour to Fugeres & Girona” – Tripadvisors
Francesc led 4 of us around to the various Gaudi sites in Barcelona in mid-October of this year. As well, he took my husband & I on a one-day tour to Fugeres and Girona. He was informative, organized, efficient (& kept us moving in order to fit it all in!) & pleasant. He engaged us readily and took time to find out about our interests, in particular the Jewish quarters in Girona. There were many stories he had to tell that made it all come alive for us. Great guide & to be recommended.

“Modernist Barcelona” – TBL
Excellent guide, guia excelente. Very well educated, answered all the questions we had, did everything on our pace, showed us a lot of history within Gaudi’s works of art. Arrived on time, bought/reserved some tickets in advance so we didn’t miss any time. Could not ask for more.

“If you want to see real Barcelona” – Tripadvisors
Recently we spent five days in Barcelona. We were fortunate to find Francesc via TripAdvisor and used him for four days as our tour guide. Francesc suggested to us what to see, and due to his knowledge and energy these were unforgettable four days of getting to know Barcelona, its people, history and surroundings. He was able to make us see not only the historical musts, but to appreciate how people lived and live in Barcelona. We also visited Girona and Dali museum, and Francesc converted my wife into Dali follower. So, if you are in Barcelona and can get Francesc to show you his city, do not hesitate; use him and memories will be yours forever.

“Barcelona in 4 hours by foot” – TBL
We were 8 senior ladies traveling together in Spain. We walked from our hotel to the central market and along the way Francesc gave us some interesting insight into the expansion of the city. We walked to the central market; stopped for chocolates and churros and then continued to the Cathedral and Picasso Museum. All during this time Francesc gave us interesting insights into the city; pointed out interesting markers and historical sights, as well as interesting shops along the back streets.

“Modernist Barcelona” – TBL
Francesc could not have been a better tour guide! He was so knowledgable. He kept our three children engaged as well! I would highly recommend hiring Francesc to tour Barcelona. We were able to get so much of the city visited in a short period of time, really making the most of our visit.

“A Pleasant Half Day in Barcelona” – Tripadvisors
Eight of us on a tour extension in Barcelona had the pleasure of walking with Monserrat (Monse) through the old quarter of Barcelona. Since we had been touring across Portugal and Spain for 16 days, we wanted a leisurely pace. Monse delivered exactly that. She showed us the hidden gems that we might have missed when we walked the Ramblas for the first time. This was especially true in the Boqueria market where she seemed to know almost all of the vendors. It was exciting to be there on Saturday morning. After two hours, we had a “chocolate stop” at a local shop. All of our group appreciated the commentary and observations. We felt more “in synch” with Barcelona and better understood its attractiveness for visitors. Hopefully we will return. Monse did a great job.
