My husband and I could not have been more delighted by Armando’s tour of Barcelona’s treats in the city center and gothic quarter. He is full of knowledge and passion about art and history. So many cool sights on this tour- the eyes on the George Orwell building and the Palau de la Musica, to name just 2. He made our group feel like a family as he showed us the sights and told stories- we learned about each other as well, which was also fun as we were from different parts of the world. In a blink it was over and he helped orient us to our next destinations. Do this. You will very glad you did.

The guide was very intuthiastic and energetic, full of jokes and fun facts. The pace was very comfortable as I was with a teenager and an older parent. There was a lot of interesting sites and information about them. The group was very small, 8 people, which made it extremely private. Very pleasant experience.

Really enjoyed the walking tour. Very informative. Could have done with a break in the middle as there is a fair amount of walking.
