Fantastic tour guide! - We visited Barcelona in September and from the moment we met Pilar we were put at ease and knew we were in good hands. We chose to extend our tour to Park Guell followed by lunch and tour outside Sagrada Familia and inside. Being an artist myself, it was a pleasure to share insights, and get a thorough understanding of Gaudis motivations, intentions and genius. The following day we visited The Salvador Dali museum in Figueres, (highly recommend!) followed by lunch on the Costa brava beachfront topped off with a visit to Pilars glass studio where we were able to get a thorough understanding of her work and techniques. The crowning glory are the pieces that she designed and installed expertly at the Sagrada Familia. All in all we were treated to two fantastic days we will never forget. Thank you, Pilar!

Great Barcelona Walking Tour - Irina was communicative before the event, met us promptly at the appointed space and time, was extremely pleasant and very knowledgeable. She curated a tour based on the interest we expressed to her, and she adapted it on the fly when we encountered an ever so special Parade of the Giants, which was unexpected until Irina told us we were visiting the week before La Castanyada. Excellent tour and exceptional tour guide, whom we would highly recommend!

Engaging and informative - Ellie was the perfect tour guide, providing in-depth explanations of what inspired Antoni Gaudi's designs and pointing out details in his architecture we would never have noticed on our own. English is her native language, and she also speaks fluent Spanish and Catalon. We only had one day to spend in Barcelona, and the tour was well worth the time and cost, especially since it included skip-the-line tickets into Basilica de la Sagrada Familia.

Excellent tour with Ellie! - Ellie was on time, very friendly and extremely knowledgeable on the history and symbolism of the cathedral design and Gaudi’s vision for this monument as well the plans for future additions and renovations that are ongoing. We sincerely enjoyed our time with Ellie and would highly recommend her! P.S. don’t forget to download the Cathedral audio App so you can listen while inside the cathedral. We tried to download when we arrived and it would not work as we were not on wifi.

The best way to experience Barcelona in one day!! - Just wanted to let you know that I spent 7 hrs on a tour with Irina from “with locals “ and had a fantastic day of history and sightseeing in Barcelona. Covered over 16 km and couldn’t have asked for a better day spent seeing and learning all I could in a short period of time. I definitely recommend this business and Irina in particular!! I am so fortunate!!!!

This is a MUST DO! It would have been just another tourist attraction visit if we had not have had Ellie by our side! - We can't thank you enough Ellie! Your knowledge and love of Barcelona and all things Mr Gaudi was infectious. Your explanations and quirky fun facts made our visit to Sagrada Familia unforgettable.

With locals tour guide, Bianca - Bianca is a very good guide! We had a little trouble connecting with Bianca prior to our tour, but she was very accommodating with our itinerary and limited accessibility with walking steps! We wanted to visit Casa Batlló (marine world architecture) and Barri Gothic (Barrio Gothic). She is very down to earth and friendly! Bianca has a background in architecture and was very informative about the intricate details that Gaudi included in his design which helped us better understand what Gaudi had in mind for the building. As we toured Gothic barrio Bianca shared more interesting details about many of the amazing structures and its history starting with the Romans through modern times. Lastly we had requested some suggestions for restaurants serving “daily menu” Paella dishes, she came through with two options, we enjoyed great lunch at one of them. We would recommend Bianca to our friends & family visiting Barcelona.
