El tour fue una maravilla. Isaac es todo un artista y hace el tour muy ameno y divertido contando curiosidades de la ciudad en la que vivo que no sabia y que no te habrías fijado nunca. Es un placer ver a gente apasionada de Barcelona y al que le gusta tanto su trabajo. Gracias Isaac! 100% recomendado Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was amazing. Isaac is quite an artist and makes the tour very enjoyable and fun, telling interesting facts about the city I live in that I didn't know and that you would never have noticed. It's a pleasure to see people who are passionate about Barcelona and who love their work so much. Thanks Isaac! 100% recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

Isaac ha sido muy divertido durante todo el recorrido. Se nota que es actor. Nos ha instruido en muchas anécdotas históricas que no conocíamos de Barcelona y vivimos aquí desde hace muchísimos años. Las 2 horas han pasado muy rápido. Todo excelente. Translate this opinion into English.

Isaac was very entertaining throughout the tour. You can tell he's an actor. He taught us a lot of historical anecdotes about Barcelona that we didn't know about, and we've lived here for many years. The 2 hours went by very quickly. Everything was excellent. Opinion translated. Show original.

Llegamos al lugar de encuentro y nos registramos con la chica Sara. El Tour empezó casi 10 min tarde porque estábamos esperando a más gente aunque ya estábamos como 10 personas. El Tour es interactivo, te explica bien aunque la mayoría eran españoles y les daba preferencia a ellos que a nosotr@s qué veníamos de otro país. Al final del Tour nos exigió dar 10 euros o más de propina, eso lo encuentro mal porque es un free tour no lo pidió de buena forma sino que exigió y que si era más mucho mejor.

We arrived at the meeting place and checked in with the girl Sara. The tour started almost 10 minutes late because we were expecting more people even though there were already about 10 of us. The tour is interactive, she explains things well even though most of them were Spanish and she gave them preference over us who came from another country. At the end of the tour she demanded that we give 10 euros or more as a tip, I think that's bad because it's a free tour and she didn't ask for it in a nice way but she demanded that if it was more, much better.

En ocasiones los guías hacen recomendaciones acerca de cuál es la propina acostumbrada en función del país y el tour. 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.

Guides sometimes make recommendations about what the customary tip is depending on the country and the tour. However, participants are free to tip more or less if they wish. We apologize if anyone felt uncomfortable at any time. Opinion translated. Show original.

Foi excelente! A Sarita, nossa guia mostrou-se muito conhecedora e muito dinâmica, conseguiu tornar uma tour que se adivinhava enfadonha e até desagradável, pois começou a chover, numa experiência enriquecedora e muito divertida. Aconselho vivamente! Translate this opinion into English.

It was excellent! Sarita, our guide, was very knowledgeable and dynamic. She managed to turn a tour that looked boring and even unpleasant, as it started to rain, into an enriching and very fun experience. I highly recommend it! Opinion translated. Show original.

Overall good. Maybe too many jokes where it didn’t seem natural but Isaac was still enjoyable. I required more history than the big comedy part. Even though it rained profusely Isaac still tried his best to show us some things. We’re thankful for his guidance.

El mejor tour de Barcelona!!!!!! Sarita increíble, un 10 se le queda corto. Super agradable y super dicharachera, no paramos de reír durante las dos horas que duró la visita, nos hubiéramos quedado otras dos horas con ella sin dudarlo. Si lo hubiéramos sabido hubiéramos cogido todos los tours con ella Translate this opinion into English.

The best tour in Barcelona!!!!!! Sarita is amazing, a 10 is not enough. Super nice and super talkative, we didn't stop laughing during the two hours that the visit lasted, we would have stayed another two hours with her without hesitation. If we had known, we would have taken all the tours with her. Opinion translated. Show original.

Si el tour se hiciera con otra vuelta sería más ameno, me esperaba mas. No lo veo como un free tour de leyendas más bien de cursiosidades. A parte la guía era muy maja pero parecía más una excursión del cole, sobraban los tambores y los aplausos. No es el primero que hago y para mí ha sido el más infantil.

If the tour had another loop it would be more enjoyable, I expected more. I don't see it as a free tour of legends but rather of curiosities. Apart from that, the guide was very nice but it seemed more like a school excursion, the drums and applause were unnecessary. It's not the first one I've done and for me it was the most childish.

Ha sido una experiencia divertida y gratificante. Las explicaciones de Isaac han sido muy didácticas y entretenidas. Nos ha caído un buen chaparrón hacia la mitad del tour, pero Isaac lo ha sabido gestionar muy bien. Nos ha dicho de esperar 15 min para ver si amainaba. Si no paraba de llover, posiblemente habría que cancelar el final de la visita. Por suerte, ha dejado de llover en poco tiempo y hemos podido continuar con el tour. Repetiremos. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a fun and rewarding experience. Isaac's explanations were very educational and entertaining. We had a big downpour halfway through the tour, but Isaac managed it very well. He told us to wait 15 minutes to see if it stopped raining. If it didn't stop raining, we might have to cancel the end of the tour. Luckily, it stopped raining quickly and we were able to continue with the tour. We will do it again. Opinion translated. Show original.

No voy a spoilerar el contenido, pero hay varias leyendas pintorezcas por descubrir. Muchas Gracias a la guia Sarita! Translate this opinion into English.

Fiz a visita com o instrutor Isaac. Ele é muito simpático e divertido. A visita foi muito interessante, pudemos descobrir várias curiosidades sobre o bairro "Gótico". Só achei um pouco longo a visita, como estava já há 14 dias de férias, estava cansada. Mas Isaac está de parabéns por seu trabalho! Translate this opinion into English.

I took the tour with the instructor Isaac. He is very friendly and fun. The tour was very interesting, we were able to discover several interesting facts about the "Gothic" neighborhood.

Genial, primera vez que lo hacemos. Somos de Barcelona pero no hay nada como conocer tu ciudad. Años y años paseando por esa zona y de repente te abren los ojos y ves infinidad de detalles sorprendentes. La puesta en escena fabulosa... Isaac un crack. Translate this opinion into English.

Fue una experiencia muy interesante. La guía es muy divertida y sabe contar las historias. Lo único que me llamó la atención fue que al final del mismo, se pide hacer un contribución desde 10-15 euros "o más". Evidentemente el usuario sabe que debe hacer una contribución, pero al pedirlo de esa manera pierde la categoría de "free-tour". Te obligan a pagar 10 euros o más. lo cual me parece un precio adecuado, pero debería anticiparse al momento de hacer la reserva. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a very interesting experience. The guide is very funny and knows how to tell stories. The only thing that caught my attention was that at the end of the tour, they ask for a contribution of 10-15 euros "or more". Obviously the user knows that they must make a contribution, but by asking for it in this way they lose the "free-tour" category. They force you to pay 10 euros or more, which seems to me to be an adequate price, but it should be anticipated when making the reservation. Opinion translated. Show original.
