Anna was right on time and very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the city. We made the mistake of scheduling when many shops were closed for siesta. She was still able to make it a very enjoyable trip for myself and wife. Thank you.

Exceptional guide, wonderful experience. Alfredo Sanchez was everything a guide should strive for interesting, humorous, experienced and kind. Our foodie tour was never dull, a culinary delight & the best of times. He made the Gothic quarter of Barcelona memorable. Would highly recommend Alf for any age group, outing or size.

Our experience was made special because of our guide Alfredo Sanchez. He was gracious, personable and experienced. A well guided tour with explanations of culture, history and food was excellent. Our topas restaurants selection and assisted food selections were high quality and authentic. We would highly recommend a tour with Alf. We had a great time.

Lots of walking. Very personalized to our tastes and walking speed. Great overview of Barcelona on our first visit to the city. Great introduction to local food customs. Our guide Pau did his best to explain his love and admiration for his home of Catalonia
