Reviews

A great tour for a BCN first-timer

Lucas C, 21-10-2022

Very enjoyable, with some lighthearted bits, serious bits, and informative bits. It's a good city hike too which I enjoyed. I really like the idea of suggesting places to stop for food or drink on the way and just pausing the tour for a break.

It visits all the attractions you'd expect in the Gothic Quarter plus a few I'd never heard of before, with some good stories along the way.

I don't know my way around Barcelona at all, so having all the directions included in the narration is great.

I get why people love this place so much.
