Sheila_J, Apr 2024
Our guide Adi was extremely knowledgeable about the Jews of a Barcelona. He took us around the Jewish section as well as providing additional information about our surroundings. He was funny too! The meeting place was not the same storefront as stated in our reservation. We walked around the plaza a few times until Adi found us. The storefront meeting place needs to be updated.
Wonderful tour

Jewish history by Adi Mahler

Adi Mahler was an incredibly knowledgeable guide who brought to life the history of Barcelona Jewish history. His tour was the best of our entire time in spain. Ask for him by name! Do the private tour. It's worth it!
TOUR FALLS SHORT
Leslie_B, Oct 2023
Our tour guide was extremely informative and knowledgeable. Unfortunately we were given a obsolete and now non-existing meeting place by Viator. As a result, we did not find our tour guide until 1/2 hour into our tour. It was apparent that Viator does not verify information sent by their contracted touring companies. In addition, I have requested some sort of compensation for this oversight and our abbreviated tour. I have not heard anything from the touring company or Viator although both have been notified. It has led me to believe that Viator is nothing more than a clearing house for tour appointments as they take no responsibility for tours that have problems that need solutions. I would strongly recommend you use another touring company for this tour.
Great
