Gothic tour - We had our own tour guide in Jose Carlos and he was great! We had so many questions and he would give us detailed answers, tailored our tour to what we like. Very very good choice if you’re planning on doing the tour. (Ask for Jose!)

Great tour with Jose Carlos! - Jose Carlos was a great tour guide. He had a lot of knowledge about the city and made recommendations for stores and food as we moved through the city. He did a great job working in breaks, avoiding crowds and finding shade since we visited during such a hot time. He even walked us to one of his favorite lunch spots. We would recommend this tour to others.

Gothic quarter with Antonio - Antonio was great. We had been to Barcelona before and we told him the things we had seen and he showed us things that were new to us. The Gothic quarter is a great place to do tours and it was great and he was great.
