Very informative tour...

Sushant_A, Oct 2025
Very informative tour about the Gothic quarter and history of Barcelona. The tour stops were just right to get an appreciation of the area.

Knowledgeable Guide

Daniele_D, Sep 2025
The 2.5 hour walking tour of Gothic Quarter was very interesting. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made it interactive with the group. However we did find it a little too long in the humid weather. It was so fast paced tour and would have preferred it to be shorter.
