I am Barcelona in every sense of the word. My parents were born here, my grandparents were born here and for generations, this city has been the stage of my family’s story. Barcelona is not just where I live, it’s who I am. Its spirit flows through my roots, my memories, and my daily life. When I guide, I am not only showing you monuments. I am sharing my heritage, my traditions, and the places that shaped me. The Gothic Quarter, where as a child I would get lost among medieval streets, the Sagrada Familia, which I have seen grow stone by stone, becoming a symbol of wonder and faith, and the vibrant neighborhoods where everyday life reveals the most authentic Barcelona. What I want for you is not a tour, but an experience. I want you to walk these streets and feel their stories. To let Gaudí’s creations move you not only with their beauty, but with the genius and soul behind them. To discover flavors, colors, and hidden corners that most visitors never reach. To me, guiding is about creating connection between you, me, and this extraordinary city. My deepest joy is when guests leave not only with beautiful photos, but with the sensation that they’ve truly lived Barcelona, and that part of it will stay with them forever. It would be my greatest honor to share with you the Barcelona of my roots, my heart, and my family’s history so that by the end of our journey together, you won’t just have seen Barcelona… you will have felt it.

There are already so many detailed, positive reviews that I won't rehash... too much. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Amanda who was, seriously, the perfect guide. As a true local, she knows everything about everything so if you are visiting Barcelona for the first time, or the tenth, she will show you things you didn't know of and will tell you the back story AND make it interesting. And that is no small feat. If you want to see Barcelona, and come away with a better understanding of it and its wonderful, rich history, this is the tour for you and Amanda is the tour guide. Thanks, Amanda!

We had a terrific “Essentials of Barcelona “ tour with Amanda, and she kindly met us at our hotel to start. While we enjoyed all the highlights (Eixample, Sagrada Família, Park Guell), and Amanda was filled with historical context and details, I especially loved the “fun facts” she shared all along the way. These are the tidbits that will stay with us! Her knowledge and passion for Barcelona were evident. Amanda was also helpful in taking us on the metro, sharing great recommendations for dining, and other places to visit as we wandered around the city.

Amanda S. was wonderful and knowledgeable; we enjoyed the main sites in Barcelona with Amanda sharing wonderful details and information. She also arranged a private driver (Juan Carlos), who was great and courteous, especially driving on the city's hectic streets. If you visit Barcelona and you have half a day, I highly recommend Amanda for the tour. She was very communicative, responsive and provided guidance.
