Gaudi, modernism, dragons - Patrick was a great tour guide! He intertwined the history of Barcelona with the architecture of the buildings and of the Gaudi designs. His tour lessons gave us good insight well after our tour was over as we toured the rest of the city. Patrick did a wonderful job on this tour and I would Highly recommend this at the beginning of a Barcelona experience.

An Excellent Tour! - Outstanding private tour with Patrick! Excellent overview of architectural and cultural evolution in Gaudi’s time. Go on this tour before seeing Gaudi’s houses for better understanding of his life, style, and its influence on the city.

Outstanding and informative tour, loved every minute - We had a fabulous tour with Patrick and enjoyed every minute of it. He is very knowledgable and, being a Welshman, hit it off immediately with my English born husband. We were lucky enough to just be our family of three adults plus Patrick so we could take our time to learn everything Patrick had to teach us. Whilst being very knowledgable he was also a lot of fun with a fabulous sense of humour. We highly recommend Patrick and this amazing walking tour.

Outstanding tour! - Five stars are too few to capture Patrick’s enthusiasm for and depth of knowledge of the subject. He was also helpful in helping us navigate our first metro ride in the city and identifying places to continue our explorations. Patrick is a first rate guide and we recommend him highly to anyone with an interest in learning about architecture and history in the Modernist era. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Small groups, informative & fun! - I did the Gaudí and Modernism tour with Patrick and it was fantastic! He really knew his stuff. While the tour was highly informative, he managed to keep it fun and laid back at the same time. Previously, I have done a tour with one of the larger companies in Barcelona, and although that too was very good, I think that Be Local Tours definitely have the edge. The fact that the Be Local groups are generally smaller definitely helps. I cannot recommend them enough! Spend a couple of hours on one of their tours and you really will come away feeling that you know Barcelona that little bit better. Thanks Patrick! I definitely hope to do another one of your tours next time I return to Barcelona.

Incredible storytelling paired with great sights - My husband and I did an English-speaking Gaudi tour with Patrick the Gaudi Guide. Wow. Incredible storyteller. He really knew his stuff. And he was so passionate about the topic that, by the time it was over, WE were passionate about it too. He added some really helpful context and made the history of Barcelona architecture come to life. Neither of us knew anything about Gaudi when we arrived, but he really set the stage and made it easy to understand. By the time it was over, we had see a number of buildings, were fascinated by the different styles, and we could identify what makes these homes so unique. We’d definitely recommend Patrick specifically. The tour wouldn’t have been the same without him as the guide.
