Reviews

I would suggest you to take this walking tour as one of the first things to do in Barcelona. It helps you exploring the city at your own pace later by giving a good understanding on Catalan spirit inspiring Modernist movement, urbanism and architecture.

Our guide Vale C. was amazing. She was engaging and shared fascinating stories about the architecture of many buildings that I never would have known. I did not know architecture could be so interesting!
