Pasábamos una amiga y yo unas horas por BCN y para aprovechar el tiempo hasta la salida de nuestro tren, decidimos hacer un tour y fue la mejor idea, ya que nos tocó Fran de guía y ese tiempo pasó volando, nos reímos muchísimo con él, visitamos barrios típicos, conocimos curiosidades, datos históricos, nos hizo recomendaciones… y, en resumen, fue muy ameno y, sobre todo, muy cercano y humano con todo el grupo. Fue una suerte tenerlo, lo disfrutamos muchísimo y lo recomiendo 100%. Translate this opinion into English.

A friend and I were spending a few hours in Barcelona, and to make the most of the time until our train departed, we decided to take a tour. It was the best idea, since Fran was our guide. The time flew by. We laughed a lot with him, visited typical neighborhoods, learned interesting facts, learned historical facts, and made recommendations. In short, he was very entertaining and, above all, very approachable and humane with the entire group. It was a blessing to have him; we thoroughly enjoyed it, and I highly recommend him.

Excelente guía. Nos atendió Francisco el argentino. No solo supo conectar con el grupo, sino que nos introdujo a la historia de Barcelona de manera grata y hasta cómica, sin dejar de lado los datos más relevantes para que pudiéramos entender mejor la idiosincrasia de sus habitantes. Translate this opinion into English.

An excellent guide. We were assisted by Francisco, the Argentinian. He not only connected with the group, but also introduced us to the history of Barcelona in a pleasant and even humorous way, while also providing the most relevant information so we could better understand the idiosyncrasies of its inhabitants.

Muy lindo tour al barrio gótico, y una suerte que nos haya tocado a Laura de guía. Nos trasmitió todos sus conocimientos con mucho detalle pero de una forma súper entretenida que hacía que no dejes nunca de prestarle atención y el tiempo se pase volando. Se nota que le apasiona lo que hace. Hermosa experiencia. Gracias Laura por tu dedicación! Hasta otro momento. Nosotros ya regresamos a Argentina. Translate this opinion into English.

A very nice tour of the Gothic Quarter, and we were lucky to have Laura as our guide. She shared all her knowledge in great detail but in a super-entertaining way that made sure we never stopped paying attention and the time flew by. You can tell she's passionate about what she does. A wonderful experience. Thank you, Laura, for your dedication! See you next time. We're already returning to Argentina. Opinion translated. Show original.

Excelente explicación. Benito sabía muchísimo pero a diferencia es que no lo hizo aburrido lo explico tan bien que no fue aburrido y se entendió muy bien toda la información. A pesar de ser historiador, no te pierde en fechas nombres y lugares, te explica muy bien y muy agradable Translate this opinion into English.

Excellent explanation. Benito knew a lot, but the difference is that he didn't make it boring. He explained it so well that it wasn't boring, and all the information was very understandable. Despite being a historian, he doesn't lose you in dates, names, and places. He explains things very well and is very pleasant. Opinion translated. Show original.

Jules was an excellent guide with so many great facts and stories about the gothic quarter. We were only in Barcelona for 1 day so this was perfect to help us get our bearings and give us excellent knowledge of the history of the city. I highly recommend this tour. 2 hours was perfect. Thanks Jules

La verdad que esperaba algo más. No sé puede empezar un free tour, que es free, en lo que a precio se refiere, d8ciendo que va a costar 20 euros por persona, porque eso es lo "digno" porque si os quitan de allí o allá. Nuria, nuestra guía se equivocó, por no hablar, de la charla independentista que echó a un turista.

Honestly, I expected something more. You can't start a free tour—which is free, in terms of price—by saying it's going to cost 20 euros per person, because that's "decent," because if they take you from one place to another, they'll take you there. Nuria, our guide, was wrong, not to mention the pro-independence talk she threw out to a tourist.

Guides often make recommendations about contributions, but in no case is it mandatory to give a specific amount. We apologize if this has been exceeded. Opinion translated. Show original.

I had an amazing experience with our tour guide Denise in Barcelona! She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made everyone feel welcome from the very beginning. Her explanations were both interesting and engaging — full of fun facts and local insights that brought the city to life. You could tell she genuinely enjoyed her job, and that made the whole experience even better. I highly recommend her if you're visiting Barcelona and want a great mix of history, culture, and good vibes!

The tour itself took us through the gothic district, but our guide Peter was what made the tour amazing! Not only did he have a plethora of information about each stop, but he filled the walking parts with legends, stories, and fun facts! He was hands down the best tour guide I have ever had!

Hicimos un freetour en Barcelona con Maribella y fue, sin duda, el mejor de los tres que hicimos esta semana. Hicimos uno en Marsella y otro en Génova y teníamos previsto uno en Nápoles (aunque el guía allí nos dejó tirados), pero Maribella destacó por su amabilidad, simpatía y, sobre todo, por lo mucho que disfruta su trabajo. Se nota que le apasiona lo que hace y eso se transmite durante todo el recorrido. ¡Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

We took a free tour in Barcelona with Maribella, and it was, without a doubt, the best of the three we did this week. We took one in Marseille and another in Genoa, and we had planned one in Naples (although the guide there let us down), but Maribella stood out for her kindness, friendliness, and, above all, how much she enjoys her job. You can tell she's passionate about what she does, and that comes through throughout the tour. Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.
