This is a really fun tour a little bit haunting and it's best to take one later in the evening. There's so much history to talk about and the tour guide, Ewan, was great in telling us about the history about the female seroconversion, the nuns and the children, and so much more about the history of Barcelona. And he let us through some really cool Backstreets and alleys that just added to the ambience.! take this to tour if you dare.
I did this walking tour two years ago and loved it so much that I came back with a friend to share the experience. Unfortunately, this time it was quite different. The guide was good and friendly, but last time there was much more information, more places covered, and it was more entertaining.
I was honestly disappointed, as I had hoped to recommend the tour based on my previous experience. I hope it improves again.
To bring a fan if you are going in the summer months. It’s very warm and it helps to get some air while waiting at some sites
Great experience was really good 👍
Very informative and interesting very relaxed experience, would recommend
So fun hearing the history of the area with a bit of ghosts mixed in. Wear comfortable shoes and bring your camera!
This walking tour was very interesting. Our guide told dark stories but, somehow managed to use a great sense of humor.
Excellent tour with knowledgeable guide sharing stories that made some of the dark tales from history come alive.
It was a very interesting tour.
Our guide Ewan was extremely knowledgeable and provided great insight into the history of Barcelona and Spain, he tried to lift our spirits with humour whenever he could, even though he had to share the dark and sad history of the Roman area of Barcelona aka the Gothic Quarters. Would absolutely recommend.
Interesting tour of some of Barcelona’s most famous serial killers and the legends of the ghosts they left behind. It was a good way to get out and see some of Barcelona as well because the tour took you through the back alleys of shops and was near the Cathedral de Barcelona. I do recommend this walking tour.
Honestly great craic - seen bits off the city we would have missed and learned lots of wee bits we wouldn't have. Ewan was amazing, knew what he was talking about and made it fun even with the topics as we went along. Highly recommend! Highlight of our trip!
Me and my cousin had a great time on this walking tour! Ewan was very entertaining, knowledgeable and funny. Got to see the really pretty area of Gothic Quarter by night and learned a lot along the way. Ewan had really great stories to tell at each stop! Definitely recommend.
My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. While it’s not so much a ghost tour, it does provide a very interesting perspective to the darker history of Barcelona and Spain. Our guide was very knowledgeable and worked to keep the group well connected. I would highly recommend this tour.
This was more of a dark history tour, rather than ghosts, but it was great! Our tour guide, Ewin was full of knowledge and we learned so much! Would definitely recommend.
Very informative and fun!
The tour guide was awesome!
You could tell that he knew the history of Barcelona and loved doing it.
The meeting place Travelers Nest, was easy to find and since we ended the tour there, we stayed and had a beer.
Really enjoyed this tour and our guide had the perfect mix of dark history with a bit of humor. Although it was a bit rainy, I hardly noticed and it went quite well with the theme of the night. Cheers! "History is a set of lies agreed upon"
Fascinating dark history guide. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Creepy fun! Would definitely recommend!
Ewan was very knowledgeable. Very manageable walk with tour. Easy to find meetup spot. Would recommend for a small historical tour.
More of a dark history tour than a ghost tour, however very informative and fun. Could do with a few more ghost tales. Ewan however was a great guide full of great facts delivered in a fun and interesting manner.
Great walk around gothic quarter. Lots of history. My elderly parents walk slow, but was a leisurely walk and they were about to keep up and enjoy. Tour guide every kind! Enjoyed very much
By far the best tour we experienced in Barcelona. A captivating mix of eerie legends and true stories that kept us hooked from start to finish. Lila was an exceptional guide and brought the tales to life!
The alley ways and roads were amazing. All the squares beautiful and interesting. I would certainlt recommend it.
Nice and fun way to see the Old Town of Barcelona. Went with my kids, 10, 14 and 17 year old and they enjoyed it very much. The leyends aren’t very scary which was good.
It was the most interesting tour we have ever gotten, 100% recommend to anyone who likes crime and a bit or horror storytelling
Wear comfortable shoes as there's a bit of walking. You will learn a fair amount about Spanish history. The tone of the tour goes from quirky to downright dark throughout the evening. Ewan was a terrific, passionate, and knowledgeable guide.
The ghosts and legends part was “fun”, but our guide Ewan gave us lots and lots of history. I really enjoyed the experience.
Our guide was a great entertainer and shared some interesting stories, but he told us right up front that the marketing on this tour needs to be changed to “dark history”. He showed us where some horrific things have happened, and some of the younger participants were probably not ready to hear the graphic nature of the inquisition or methods of execution.
It is more about the history of Barcelona than about actual known ghosts, but the stories are perfect and the guide was super knowledgeable and entertaining
This was so interesting and fun! Ewan was so informed and funny and helpful. We learned so much about the history of the Gothic Quarters! Our 18 and 15 year old loved it, but I don't recommend it for younger kids. As with all countries, there are some dark and disturbing stories.
Very entertaining and informative tour through the gothic quarter! Tour guide was funny, knowledgeable, and shared lots of creepy stories while explaining the sites.
Our tour guide, Ewan, was wonderful! He told us many interesting stories with lots of historical value. We enjoyed this tour and recommend it to all travelers!
