Our tour guide was very knowledgable and gave us some great insight into our size. Our tour group ended up being quite small which meant we had some fantastic individual attention. Tour was carried out exactly as advertised with ample time to wander at our own pace.

A great way to see Barcelona. The whole day tour was split into two different tours so you had some time during the middle of the day to explore by yourself.

Doing what: Tapas Evening Walking Tour of Barcelona
The first meeting place and tapas was not very special. We were met by our guide, Mark who was incredibly friendly and helpful. As the evening moved on we were greeted by some very interesting history of the city especially some hidden cafes off the beaten track as well as the vibrant market off La Rambla. Our favourite was the chocolate con churros cafe which we went back for afterwards. The second and final tapas destinations were brilliant- a good contrast of new / modern tapas vs traditional. I would suggest taking this tour at the beginning of your holiday.

Doing what: Barcelona Super Saver: Sightseeing Tour with Montjuic Cable Car and Montserrat Tour
Our tour guide was Marc and he shared a wealth of information and was entertaining. He had to do the tour in three languages and I felt we may have been cheated; doing three languages took a lot of time and maybe we would have had more information if he had more time for English. I would have liked less time in the Spanish Village and a little more time in at Montjuic.

Really good tour. Saw a lot of Barcelona, got a good feel for the city, and got into Sagrada Familia without queuing. We also saw a number of other Gaudi buildings and spaces. Our guide, Veronica, was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. it was a nice small group in a small bus. A fantastic day!

The tour guides were very nice and knowledgeable. I enjoyed the first part of the tour but I wished we were able to go into la familia sagrada during the 2nd half of the tour.

The tour was average good. The guide provided accurate explanations. In my opionion, the key why this was not better than average was the lack of interaction between the guide and us: we asked questions and his response was as short as possible or even: "I will explain later". It was almost as having a writen or taped guide; in addition, we spent too much time in the car, and when waliking the guide would focus on a direction and did not explain much of what we were seeing along the road. I asked for a map, or if he could tell us where we were and he stated "I dont have any: you should have asked at the office". He gave us "free time" in areas we did not need it, and too much, and we all could have enjoyed more explanations and walking in Rambla, for instance or getting to the port. I think the tour could be much better.

We signed up for this tour on our last night in Barcelona and were a few minutes late in meeting our guide. We were the only ones who signed up for that evening so we got to enjoy Maria all to ourselves. Tip: take this tour early in your trip so you can enjoy some of the recommendations she will give you for later in your trip. We got to see some of the oldest shops in Barcelona that make chocolate, candles, sausages and more. Maria is very knowledgeable about food and the history of the city as well. Definitely an A+ guide. We had even been to the La Bouqueria already so she took us to another area and let us explore as she told us about the shops and history. We weren't sure if the 8 tapas would fill us up for the evening but since you eat and walk, then eat and walk, you have more time to fill up and by the end of the night we were pleasantly surprised to be full. You may want to pretend you are a Barcelonian and eat a very late dinner or grab a snack later if you are still hungry, but a great tour all the same.

This tour is a must for all first time Barcelona visitors. It was very comprehensive, detailed and enjoyable. Our guide Fabian was great, his knowledge of Barcelona's history is impressive. He was super friendly and approachable and we felt comfortable with him and his english was excellent. I would recommend the full day tour which took us to places like Parc Guell, Sagrada Familia, La Pedrera, Jewish quarters, Barri Gotic, MontJuic, Passeig De Gracia and much more. Please note the full day tour ends at La Pedrera so you have to make your way home from there. Overall we learnt a great deal of Catalunya's history from an amazing guide.

This was a wonderful tour. The guide was charming and provided a great deal of information about the food and culture of Barcelona. We not only visited three outstanding Tapas bars, but we also were treated to a walking tour of some of the hidden treasures within the city.

We were part of a small group of 9 from around the world for this tour. From the start of the tour we were well looked after by the representative who was very informative and inclusive. The tour was just about the right length with breaks for tapas and drinks at 3 different restaurants. It was a perfect way to introduce tourists to Barcelona. Our representative was very helpful and enthusiastic about this very interesting city.

This was a good tour for the money . The really nice part was that we got to go into the Sagrada church. I would recommend this 1/2 day tour and our guide was very knowledgable.
