An incredible first day in Barcelona

Ken_G, Apr 2024

Frederico is an incredible guide - extremely knowledgeable and diverse in his touring topics! He was punctual, mapped out with me the areas to see, customized the experience, made sure to check in from time to time and even surprised me by ending our tour with a bit of wine tasting at one of his preferred purveyors. I wouldn’t waste time searching for a guide - just ask for Frederico!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you for the positive review on your private and personalized tour with Frederico. Your feedback truly uplifts us. Think of us next time you travel, we have many many hosts all around the world!

Great intro to the city

SusanM, Apr 2024

Isabel was a great guide! We really got a good feel for Barcelona. She thoughtfully planned our route to pass by both popular and less well known sites, and managed the time we’ll.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

We're thrilled to hear that Isabel provided you with a great tour of Barcelona! It's wonderful that she thoughtfully planned your route. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Isabel. If you ever return to Barcelona or explore new destinations, we'd love to arrange more memorable experiences for you!

Fantastic overview of Barcelona

Rebecca_L, Mar 2024

Alf was an engaging and knowledgeable tour guide. We covered an incredible amount of history, neighborhoods, and insider tips over the course of 4 hours. It was the best way to get a true overview of Barcelona and the perfect start to our stay. Alf was very communicative before our arrival and customized the tour to our interests. He was a funny and honest tour guide and great all around. Highly recommend!

Outstanding Personal Guided Tour

Donald_N, Mar 2024

Yesterday Alan walked us in, around and through Barcelona in a way and style that completely exceeded all of our expectations. The time flew by and it felt as if we'd only just begun by the time we had to say good-bye. Alan's insight, passion and friendly engagement are all outstanding. I can guarantee that on our next visit to Barcelona we'll be hoping Alan will be available to show and educate us more. We wholeheartedly recommend him to whoever wants to truly experience the gems, both hidden and obvious, that make Barcelona a gem in its own right. 5+ stars to Alan.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

It's wonderful to hear that Alan's insight, passion, and friendly engagement made the experience truly memorable. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Outstanding tour guide

Jerry_G, Oct 2023

Alan T.,was simply outstanding!! Absolutely fantastic. He requested our preferences in advance and made the tour 101% perfect. What a wonderful, memorable day he made for my wife and I. Knowledgeable, great speaker, personable.

Book it

EmilyAnn_T, Oct 2023

Alf was amazing. We are a family of three and he tailored every part of our day. Worth every penny could not recommend any more. We all had fun from kid to parents and made memories.

Alfredo /Barcelona ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Caroline_R, Sep 2023

Alfredo was exceptionally personable. He was full of facts and had a bright personality. I would highly recommend Alfredo as your tour guide.

Knowledgable guide

Anne_D, Sep 2023

Our guide Pau was extremely knowledgeable and was able to take us to some off the path sights that we probably wouldn't have seen. We went to Park Guell and he pointed out some many details that enhanced the tour. The only negative is that he smoked non stop during the tour, we should have said something early on just didn't realize how much he was going to smoke.

Wonderful day in Barcelona

joytrek66, Sep 2023

We spent a wonderful day with our guide Nico exploring Barcelona. Nico showed us not only the standard sights but extra points of interest.

Best way to learn the city upon arrival

Joanna_B, Aug 2023

Elvira is the best!!! She knows so much about the history of Barcelona, and is beyond kind. She took us to all the important stops but also showed us areas of the city that we wouldn’t have found on our own. Wonderful evening!!

Terrible

EDWARD_B, Aug 2023

Host was a no show no notification. Had to call to find out it was cancelled. Need better communication

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hello Edward, Unfortunately, our host experienced a crisis prior to your experience and could no longer make the tour happen. We're truly sorry for the inconvenience you faced with our host not showing up, and we apologize for the lack of communication. I understand that this situation disrupted your plans, and I regret that we couldn’t reschedule the experience. We are currently working on refining our protocols to handle unforeseen circumstances more effectively in the future. Best regards, Ruslan and the City Unscripted Team.

Highly recommend!

Ashley_W, Jun 2023

Absolutely amazing private tour! We got to submit our likes&dislikes and they tailored the tour to us!

The perfect tour for your first time to Barcelona

Danny_N, Jun 2023

The perfect tour to do for your first visit to Barcelona. The tour also gets you familiar with the main local highlights and you spend just the right amount of time. We recommend Lilliia who was great and very knowledgeable about Barcelona and is willing to provide some local recommendations on restaurants.

Wonderful tour. Highly recommend Ivanna!

Melissa_S, May 2023

We absolutely loved our time with our host Ivanna. She customized our tour and made it everything we’d hoped for with offering highlights and hidden gems in Barcelona. She shared history, culture and architecture, delicious food and drink as well as wonderful recommendations for the rest of our trip.

Alan was a superb guide

Paul_S, Apr 2023

Alan was a blast to hang out with and talk to. He personalised the tour around sites that I’ve already scheduled to visit and worked other interesting and important venues. He obviously is very passionate about what he does and actively looks to support local businesses and his knowledge of the history of the region was of tremendous value in helping me understand Barcelona better.
