Walking tour of Gothic area Barcelona
Tracey_W, May 2024
Tour guide Alba was very knowledgeable and shared many interesting facts about old town. Recommend this tour .
Great tour
John_B, May 2024
Wonderful tour. We walked through the area the day before and had no idea what we were looking at. Our guide did a great job of informing, sharing history, and teaching us about more than 2000 years of societies in Barcelona.
Great Learning Experience

Guide was awesome. She reviewed architecture, and history and politics that impacted Barcelona over the past 2000 years.

Really loved the sword marks on the wall! As well as the historic land marks with the special marked areas infront of them
Highly recommended tour!
Maria_M, May 2024
This was a great way to become acquainted with the old city of Barcelona. This tour helped us to better plan the rest of our days in this beautiful city. Annie was a great tour guide. She was witty, knowledgable and very engaging. We highly recommend this tour.
The tour guide made it...
Maureen_M, May 2024
The tour guide made it educational and fun. This part of Barcelona is so full of history with both gothic and neo-gothic buildings.
Excellent guide and tour.
Deborah_G, Apr 2024
My friend and I took this tour with Alba. She was interesting and knowledgeable. We enjoyed the tour very much.
Must do in Seville!
Anthony_F, Apr 2024
Alejandro was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much about the history and transitions of Seville. He was passionate and you could tell he loved doing these tours. The food and drinks were great as well!
Excellent way to Discover a city
Susanna_B, Apr 2024
We always do a walking tour to discover a bit more about a city and what it has to offer. Our tour guide Alba, did not disappoint. She was so informative, friendly and knowledgeable. We had the best time talking with her and she showed us places through the Old Town and Gothic Quarter. Some I am sure we would not have discovered on our own. What also made this tour was St Gorges day celebrations (Sant Jordi festival) Alba told us a bit about this and why Barcelona/Catalonia celebrate this day. I have never seen so many Roses and Books on sale. It was fascinating. Thank you Alba for a grate tour.
Group way too large.
Lynne_O, Apr 2024
The guide and information were both excellent. However, our group was 18 people, which was way too large and inhibited every aspect of the tour. Very misleading when they tout small groups, don’t believe them!
Great way to learn about Barcelona
Emily_W, Apr 2024
Ane was an amazing guide! Funny, knowledgeable, and obviously in love with Barcelona. Her tour of the Gothic quarter really showcased the amazing history behind the city and the culture of the Catalan province. Absolutely wonderful!!!

Stephanie was great! She is an outstanding guide, person and informative, offering both historical and cultural insights.
A must for your first day in Barcelona
Rocio_T, Apr 2024
Our guide Ane was excellent. You can tell that she loves what she does. Very informative and answered all the questions we asked. Recommend this tour for your first day out to get your sea legs and get used to the time change. Thank you Ane for a wonderful half day.
Group bigger than promised.
DAVID_M, Apr 2024
This tour was advertised as a small group of 12. Actual number was 18. With no RF whisperers and very crowded streets, it was difficult for everyone to follow the guide and hear her.
Disappointed
Rusty_S, Apr 2024
Was looking forward to our tour, but our guide never showed up. When I called him, he said he was not aware he had a tour scheduled. Now I’m trying to figure out how to get a refund.
Excellent tour and great information.
duane_a, Apr 2024
The stories behind the stories. The knowledge of Andrew added so very much. He was cordial and happier answered our questions.
Great experience! Recommend this trip for sure!
Marcial_P, Apr 2024
We had such a great time with this tour! Our guide Ane was awesome! She had such great energy and positive vibes! She ran a balanced tour which was highly informative and most of all, entertaining! Will definitely recommend this tour when staying in Barcelona.. hope you end up being in Ane's group! If not, I'm sure their other guides are also good. Cheers!
Awesome
