Hice el free tour por Barcelona(Born y Ciutat Vella) con Laura y fue una experiencia genial. Es argentina, súper simpática, y tiene una forma muy amena de contar la historia de la ciudad, mezclando datos curiosos con mucho humor. Se nota que le apasiona lo que hace y lo transmite en cada parada. ¡Recomendadísima si querés conocer Barcelona de una forma diferente y divertida! Translate this opinion into English.

Es un tour imperdible para hacer ni bien llegas a Barcelona ya que te brinda un pantallazo de historia y te muestra los lugares mas destacados. Nuestro guía Martín se nota que es un apasionado por lo que hace y por el lugar donde vive, su amor por Barcelona se contagia, nos dió ganas de volver y quedarnos por más tiempo a seguir explorando.

Elegimos el tour por la ciudad apenas llegamos a Barcelona para tener un conocimiento de lo mas interesante dentro del casco historico y el guia Martin supero nuestras expectativas. Excelente recorrido con gran conocimiento a lo qie agrego una gran cantidad de perlitas u observaciones de cada lugar. A ello hay que mencionar que contesto todas las consultas qie le fuimos haciendo demostrando su capacidad e interaccion con el grupo y luego al cumplir el horario se quedo a contestar dudas.

La recorrida fue excelente, Víctor nos ayudó muchísimo a entender la historia de la ciudad. Nos hubiera gustado que la empresa avisara que el free tour requiere de un pago obligatorio de un euro por el aparato para escuchar al guía. Es un detalle, es cierto, pero lo considero engañoso hacia el turista. Además, en nuestro caso ni siquiera funcionó y no nos devolvieron el dinero. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was excellent; Victor helped us immensely understand the city's history. We would have liked the company to point out that the free tour requires a mandatory one-euro fee for the device to listen to the guide. It's a nice touch, admittedly, but I consider it misleading to tourists. Besides, in our case, it didn't even work, and we didn't get our money back. Opinion translated. Show original.

Excelente, nuestro guía Pablo muy conocedor, amable y puntual. Un detalle mínimo pero podría hacer que alguien se pierda el tour y es que la ubicación enviada al correo estaba alejada un par de calles del punto de encuentro. De resto excelente recomendada Translate this opinion into English.

Excellent. Our guide, Pablo, was very knowledgeable, friendly, and punctual. A minor detail, but one that could have caused someone to miss the tour, is that the location emailed was a couple of blocks away from the meeting point. Otherwise, excellent. Recommended.

Hice el tour más clásico, de la ciudad vieja. Joan nos contó la historia de Barcelona desde sus orígenes. El recorrido me pareció genial. Muy informativo y a la vez entretenido. Se nota que es historiador, tanto por su rigurosidad como por la pasión que muestra al realizar el tour. Súper recomendado! Translate this opinion into English.

I took the more classic tour, of the old city. Joan told us the history of Barcelona from its origins. I thought the tour was brilliant. Very informative and entertaining at the same time.

Si bien el guía sabía y aportó mucha información, es la primera vez luego de casi 3 meses de viaje por Europa y de haber realizado numerosos free tour con la empresa , que el guía exige de una manera intempestiva un monto a la hora del pago. Me dejó sorprendida para mal. Espero puedan corregir este tipo de actitudes, ya que , es una pena y de alguna manera , mancha el muy buen labor de litros guías con los que he recorrido diferentes ciudades.

While the guide was knowledgeable and informative, this is the first time in almost three months of traveling around Europe and taking numerous free tours with the company that the guide has unexpectedly demanded a fee upon payment. I was negatively surprised. I hope they can correct this type of behavior, as it's a shame and, in some ways, tarnishes the excellent work of the guides I've toured various cities with.

Sucede a menudo que algunos participantes obvian la necesidad de realizar un aporte al final del recorrido. Por este motivo, los guías pueden hacer recomendaciones acerca de cuál es la propina acostumbrada. Aun así, los participantes son libres de aportar más o menos, si así lo desean. Sentimos si alguno se sintió incomodado en algún momento. Translate this opinion into English.

It often happens that some participants ignore the need to make a contribution at the end of the tour. For this reason, guides may make recommendations about the customary tip. However, participants are free to contribute more or less if they wish. We apologize if anyone felt uncomfortable at any point. Opinion translated. Show original.

La visita fue muy amena y el guía explicó muy bien. Lo único que no me gustó es que mandarán un WhatsApp con antelación pidiendo como mínimo 15€. Sí es un free tour cada uno da lo que considere. No me gustó el mensaje ni su tono. Hemos hechos más free tours y en ninguno me he sentido tan incómoda por el motivo del pago.

The tour was very enjoyable, and the guide explained things very well. The only thing I didn't like was that they send a WhatsApp message in advance, asking for a minimum of €15. Yes, it's a free tour, everyone pays what they feel they need. I didn't like the message or the tone. We've taken other free tours, and I've never felt so uncomfortable about the payment.

Our guide was excellent on our city English speaking tour at 10:30 on Monday 21st of April. However, she had to adjust her stops to talk to us as a group because her quiet whispers receiver stopped working. Luckily she was able to project her voice. She was very informative with a good sense of humor.
