Greetings, travelers! I'm Jaime, your licensed tour guide in Barcelona. Before we meet in "La Ciutat Comtal" ("the City of the Counts", another way to call it Barcelona), I can tell you a bit about myself. I have been working as a tour guide since 2018, welcoming private groups and larger groups as well. Even though I was born in Colombia, I fell in love with the city when I used to come to visit my dad's family during the Christmas holidays. As you can see, my father and I have traded places. He is still enjoying living in "La Ciudad de la Eterna Primavera" (in this case is Medellin, yet another nickname. By the way, what's the one for your hometown?). Before discovering my passion for guiding, I worked in an airline, the hospitality industry, and education for more than 20 years in Paris, Barcelona, and Seoul. It seems that in my DNA there are genes leading me to expand thresholds and share my passion for culture, history, and language. Barcelona is a city that has a lot to offer: history, art, gastronomy, traditions, secrets, and much more. And from here, you can reach interesting places in Catalonia, such as Montserrat, the Costa Brava, and important vineyards. I will be more than happy to help you discover, or rediscover, the city, creating together an experience according to your interests and expectations. We can go for the highlights of the city, aiming for Antoni Gaudi (7 of his projects are UNESCO world heritage sites), the Gothic Quarter (gothic?), Montjuïc and its Olympic Park, different Art Nouveau sites, and finding out why there is a Picasso Museum in Barcelona. I remain at your disposal to start tailoring your trip to "La Ciutat Comtal". Official Guide License (number 3029), issued by the Autonomous Government of Catalonia Degree in Tourism Information and Marketing Member of AGUICAT (Professional licensed tour guides Association of Catalonia). I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

We spent 3 wonderful days with Jaime in Barcelona! We hired a private guide as we wanted to do a deep dive into the history and architecture of Barcelona. Jaime was just perfect. He was very knowledgable, patiently answered all of our questions, and perfectly tailored the tours to our exact interests. We wanted to see the major sights, but also get off the beaten...

Jaime was an amazing guide and went the extra mile to tailor the tour for us . He clearly loves his city and shared history and showed us details we would have missed but for him . He had great recommendations for restaurants and tips for making the most of our stay. We would definitely book with him again when we return to Barcelona.
