Tour guide in Barcelona Manfredi N.

Hello! My name is Manfredi. Originally from Rome, I have travelled extensively and worked and studied in Bologna, London, Brussels and New York. I finally settled down in Barcelona, which has been my home since 2008. I am deeply integrated into Catalan culture and society. Arriving at this career as a licensed tour guide was an inspiration, allowing me to join the dots of my life into an overall, meaningful mosaic of my passion for architecture, art, and history. My intellectual curiosity, combined with my insight into the political and social issues of our time are all different tiles of the mosaic. I deeply love what I do. My vibrant passion will accompany you on whichever tour you book with me. It will be a tour of discovery and adventure where you feel as primary actors in an interactive story. All tours will be a combination of fun, alongside with gaining deeper insights into Barcelona and Catalonia. On my tours, you will taste the "Catalan life, " immersing yourself in a flow of visions, sensations and stories, and experience the heritage, culture, food, history, politics and tradition in this unique city. There is much to do! Visit a monument or museum, walk through an historical area, enjoy the panoramic outlook over our city, or simply discovery the diversity of gastronomy. I will conduct the tour in a "relaxed "mode. No hustle bustle to keep pace with 90 other tourists. We will take the time to go in depth and taste all the flavors together. At the end of the tour, we will be both enriched and changed If you are intrigued, check out my tour itineraries that follow. If you have a special request, we can create a tour together that will suit your needs. As an example, I designed a skateboarder's tour of Barcelona for some young clients. We took in all the sights by both skateboard and bikes. I am always open to requests. - Degree in Political Science and History, University of Bologna, Italy, February 1998; - Master's degree in European Policies and law, University of Leuven, Belgium, 2005; - License as a tour guide of Canary Islands, Spain, April 2017; - License as a tour guide of Catalonia, Spain, May 2018; - Course about Montserrat, Monastery of Monserrat and University of Girona, Spain, 2019; - Course about Pablo Picasso, Picasso Museum and University of Barcelona, Spain, 2020, 2021, 2022; - Degree in Art History, University of Barcelona, Spain, in progress.
