We had a 2 hours Jewish tour in Barcelona. Our guide - Adi Mahler- is very knowledgeable. We had fun and learned a lot not only about Jewish people living in Barcelona many centuries ago but, also, about Barcelona of that time. It was very educational. Thank you very much for having guides like Adl. Dina and Yefim Galitsky.
Adi is very knowledgeable and fun. We learned a lot and would definitely recommend to others who would like to learn not only about Jewish history, but the history of the Gothic Quarter.
Adi was very knowledgeable and informative. You visit the old city and see the Jewish as well as other sites.
Our guide was warm, well educated about the Quarter and was respectful of the walking limitations of our group.

Can’t thank Adi enough for our guided tour today. So knowledgeable - not just about this subject - but the entire world. Tied everything together beautifully and what a great sense of humor to go with his knowledge. Thanks again 😊🙏
Avi Mahler gave us a most interesting and insightful perspective on the Jews of Barcelona. I knew a lot about the presence of Jews here prior to to Inquisition but I learned so many new and interesting facts. There was a very strong Jewish presence here in Spain and I loved learning more about it. Thank you Avi Mahler.
Great insight into the history of Jews in Barcelona. Adi was a great tour guide and was very knowledgeable.
Our guide Adi not only showed us hard-to find evidence of Jewish life in Barcelona, he provided an informative overview of the country’s history and what led to the virtual elimination of the Jews in Spain.

We took a tour with Adi Mahler of the old city in Barcelona focusing on the Jewish Quarter. Adi was excellent! So knowledgable. His commentary kept me engaged. And he had a wonderful sense of humor. So enjoyable - great way to end my 11 day tour of Spain.
Adi was fantastic. This is a really cool tour, getting to see parts of Barcelona you wouldn't know about. Very interesting information and conversation.
Adi knows his stuff! He is a very intelligent tour guide. He shares all of his knowledge in a very relatable way. It would be great to travel the world with Adi as a tour guide.
Exceptional tour. Adi is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor! I saw places I would never have found in my own. He had fascinating stories to share. We covered important parts of history and the time passed very quickly. I learned a great deal and highly recommend Adi’s tour!!
Should read up information before you go on the tour to ask more questions . Informative and interesting
Fascinating tour of the Jewish quarter. Adi was a great guide. Extremely knowledgeable of both Jewish history and the gothic quarter in general. He was perfect for our multigenerational tour that ranged from ages to 10-80 years old. Highly recommend!
Adi, was a great guide and clearly understood Jewish life and history of Jewish society in Barcelona
We had a wonderful Jewish history tour with Adi. His knowledge is deep and genuine — and he was a pleasure to spend a few hours with. I'd highly recommend Adi not only for a Jewish heritage tour, but for a general Barcelona tour as well. Five stars!

Amazing tour with a fabulous tour guide ! Adi was knowledgeable and provided a lot of historical and other relevant background information. We highly recommend!
Great tour of the Jewish quarter of Barcelona. We learned a lot and had a nice visit with our guide Adi.
Our family of five had an absolutely wonderful tour of Barcelona. Our guide, originally from Israel and living in Barcelona for the past 17 years, was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the city’s history and culture.
What impressed us most was his ability to connect with everyone in our group. He kept our 9-year-old daughter interested and involved while also providing the depth, context, and historical perspective that the parents and grandparents thoroughly enjoyed. Finding a guide who can successfully engage ages 9 to 69 is no small feat, but he made it look effortless.
His knowledge seemed endless, yet he presented everything in a way that was approachable, entertaining, and easy to understand. We learned far more than we expected and came away with a much deeper appreciation for Barcelona’s Jewish history.
This was one of the highlights of our trip, and we could not have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for a guide who is intelligent, personable, engaging, and able to tailor the experience to a diverse group, we highly recommend him.
