"Touring in Barcelona"
Our tour guide, Julia, was extremely knowledgeable about all things Barcelona. Our visit to Barcelona would not have been the same without her. We loved our two tours with her and would recommend her to anyone we know who is travelling to Barcelona. A wonderful experience!!!

"She brought the history to life for all of us."
A group of 10 friends came to Barcelona for 4 days prior to a cruise. She set up an amazing array of tours, incorporating everything we wanted to do. Everything ran like a well oiled machine. Our guide was always prompt, the drivers were excellent, she had amazing knowledge of all the sites and attractions and she was very kind and patient with all of us (and that was a tall order).
