Humbling and inspiring - highly recommended! - Our tour guide, Edu, was absolutely wonderful. He gave us such a good understanding of the history of the Jews in this area, within the broader context what was happening in Spain. He brought it all to life. It was very humbling to imagine life at those times and to walk the same streets, and touch the same walls, as those who came so many centuries before us. Highly recommend this tour and Edu, if he is available.

Excellent tour - We met our guide Edu and he immediately made us feel welcome. He imparted an incredible amount of information which was interesting in its history and scope. Walking the areas where the Jewish population lived and flourished in Barcelona was meaningful. We have taken tours of Jewish Quarters in many European cities, and this one ranked very high. Enjoyed the experience.

It was an enlightening experience. - Edu was a fabulous guide. He was so knowledgeable and made the history come alive. We loved the Mikvah that was discovered during a store renovation. The stories about the inquisition. We were fortunate to have this tour at our own pace. Loved it and highly recommend it.

Meeting Address Incorrect - Excellent tour. The only problem is, Viators site for meeting is inaccurate. The address on site (de Ferran, 46, Ciutat Vella) is wrong. The tour guide confirmed this as well. Meeting place place should be listed at Placa de Sant 2 or Starbucks. Left us searching for 15 minutes to meet up.
