In this completely personalized tour, we will communicate beforehand to discuss your needs and interests to create a customized itinerary which will be a mash-up of your Barcelona bucket list and the top sights and suggestions. The details on this page are just suggestions!

When we meet, I'll be like a local friend, showing you around my city and telling you stories and anecdotes about the city, history, culture, and my local experience. Keep in mind that this is a private experience just for you and your travel party, so we'll go at your pace and anything that comes up during the day we can adjust or modify. Please message for inquiries and concerns!

My objective is to be the bridge to help you understand the local life and identity of Barcelona so that you can also see the magical feeling that attracts so many people to this beautiful city. Just follow me!

What To Expect

Basilica de la Sagrada Familia

The famous work in progress from Antoni Gaudi and one of Barcelona's iconic landmarks. We will discuss it from the outside and if you have booked at ticket in advance (as we will discuss well in advance of your trip) then you can go inside for a visit (visits are approx. 1-3 hours).

30 minutes • Admission Ticket Not Included

Parc Guell

Another of Gaudi's famous landmarks which is a fantastical park known for its colorful mosaic tiles. We can walk around from the outside but it is well worth a visit into the monumental part, which is best reserved in advance (also to be discussed upon booking in order to determine reservation details). From the outside the visit lasts around 30 minutes, but if you go inside it's closer to a full hour.

30 minutes • Admission Ticket Not Included

Gothic Quarter (Barri Gotic)

Take a journey through Barcelona's multiple layers of history learning about the Roman and medieval histories, cultural legends and traditions, and see how it fits in with the modern elements of present day. Depending on our determined itinerary, we can breeze through a few of the main sites in the Gothic quarter, or we can do an exclusive tour seeing all of the main points. Duration can range from 45 minutes to 3 hours.

All points are without entry fee.

Parc de Montjuic

Jump into nature without leaving the city! The famous hill at the side of the city hosts various famous landmarks such as the Castle of Montjuic, the Olympic stadium, and the Palace as well as many hidden gems. We can arrange an itinerary to view the top important spots or to explore it in further detail. Due to the distance from the rest of things, Montjuic usually takes up a bit of time from the day, so the "duration" could range from 1 hour to 4 hours if you want to walk around by foot to various points.
