Angie was the best tour guide ever. She is so kind and also knows a lot of history. She was very informative and told us many stories about Barcelona. We loved every part of our trip. The only downside is we didn’t have transportation back to our starting point or anywhere close to our hotel, so we had to order a cab as we were about 2 miles away from everything! Other than that, everything was amazing. Thank you Angie!!!

Donatella was an awesome tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and extremely enthusiastic about the history of Barcelona. We very much enjoyed the tour. The first part of the tour from the meeting point to the train to the cable car was a bit of a long walk, however we went through the local food market along the way and learned about some of the foods available in the area.
