    The 6 of us had a wonderful Gaudi Tour with Mari C. She is personable and knowledgeable. She clearly has a passion for Gaudi & it showed. She was able to bypass the crowds and get us to the significant sights efficiently. The quiet boxes she provided worked well and we could hear her even in crowded places. She spoke English, Spanish and Catalan.

    Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure spending the day with your group and sharing Gaudí’s world with you. I’m very happy to hear you enjoyed the tour and that the headsets helped make the experience more comfortable, even with the crowds. I hope you take wonderful memories of Barcelona home with you! Warm regards, Maria

    Everything couldn't have been better. Maria made it all happen, and we had a wonderful day. She was friendly, pleasant to be with, and very knowledgable while making it all so interesting. It was a nice pace too. Not rushed at all. Maria gave us wonderful recommendations for the rest of our stay beyond her tour. We would highly recommend her!

    Great tour with Maria! She was extremely knowledgeable and eager to share information even return visitors might not know. Maria, along with our driver Alex, were flexible with the schedule and open to any itinerary changes we wanted. It was a wonderful day.

    This was one of the best tours we've ever experienced. Maria--born and raised in Barcelona--knows so much about this city and about the main subject of the tour, Gaudi. She enriched our understanding not only of the architecture but how it fit within Gaudi's life and city life. Maria is well organized, personable, and her delivery is excellent. She's so warm it felt...
