Fantastic tour with Lisa!! - We had an excellent Gothic quarter tour with Lisa. She is clearly an expert on Spanish history, especially of the Catalonia region. I felt much better informed about the whole region of Catalonia. She took us through some quieter streets as she brought history to life, which was wonderful. She is also quite funny which made the tour a lot more interesting. I highly recommend the Gothic Quarter tour and wish we had the time to do the other tours with Runner Bean!

Exceptional Gothic Quarter Tour!! - My husband & I flew into Barcelona in the am and did this gothic quarter walking tour at 4:30pm that same day. Our tour guide was Lisa. She was very passionate & excited to walk us through the gothic quarter. She was fantastic!! She knew all of the history and it was very interesting. We are English speaking and she was very easy to follow and understand. It was very enjoyable and an absolute must do for anyone coming to Barcelona!! Thank you Lisa & Runner Bean Tours for the exceptional tour of the Gothic Quarter!!

Must do!!! - I was skeptical about going on a 2 hour walking tour since it seemed long and didn’t know how much it would be worth it, but after doing it I have absolutely no regrets. It may be a beautiful area regardless, but we never would’ve fully appreciated just how spectacular and historically significant the area was without the tour. Our guide, Noah, made the tour absolutely unforgettable. He was very knowledgeable, funny, and generally just a wonderful presence to be around. If your coming to Barcelona you definitely need to budget some time for this tour, it will totally change the way you see this city!

A Wonderful Introduction to the History of Barcelona - We took a morning walking tour of the Gothic Quarter. Our tour guide Lisa was excellent and shared in-depth history of Barcelona, Catalonia and Spain. We saw a lot of things including buildings from various eras. The pace was comfortable for us and we had a fun group of English-speaking from all over the world.

Gothic Tour with Noah - Excellent tour led by Noah. He was outstanding, very informative, humorous, and highly engaged with the tour members. His manner of leading was truly exceptional. The tour was very interesting, taking in a good selection of sites and giving a great overview of Barcelona's history. I would not hesitate to take another Runner Bean tour, especially if led by Noah.

Informative and enjoyable tour! - This was our first free walking tour and it was excellent! They made the effort to divide us into smaller groups so that there was no difficulty hearing our knowledgeable guide. Good overview of the history of the gothic area of Barcelona.
