Tour guide in Barcelona Catalonia Maica C.

***LICENSED TOUR GUIDE #2435 (since 2005) *** SKIP THE LINE GUARANTEED AT ALL SITES*** Hola! I'm Maica, an enthusiast Barcelonian and in love with my city. Daughter of a painter and sister of a passionate architect. They both taught me appreciate and understand arts. Years ago, I moved to Scotland where I worked as a tour guide for Spanish and Italian tourists. Seven years later I came back home. At first I taught Spanish to foreigners with my own methodology: using the street as a classroom and with lots of story telling techniques (I was also a story teller for children and adults). It was doing so how I became a licensed tour guide, my passion. Now it's my full time job. I love it. It's extremely rewarding: it keeps me in touch with people to whom I can share my knowledge as well as it keeps me always exploring and learning. As a licensed tour guide I have PREMIUM access in all monuments and museums. Very convenient since when on holidays time is precious!!!! Since each of us is different and deserves the best, ALL MY TOURS ARE TAILORED MADE and to gain a feeling of local life, I'll make sure you won't miss some off the beaten-track sites . I'll be very happy to recommend, my main concern is to make you live unforgettable experiences. As a language teacher, story teller and tour guide, I'm very much used to dealing with all kinds of people and my explanations are very dynamic, instructive and a pleasure to the ears. I am very flexible and my tours are adapted either to shore excursions or private tours. I love to tour couples, friends, single visitors and, as a mother of a teenager, families as well. It will be a honor to accompany you while discovering all my hometown's beauties with which you will fall in love! Hope to meet you soon!
