The best in 4 hours with a private car and guide
Overview of your Barcelona tour
When you are in a beautiful city like Barcelona and do not have much time, an Express the-best-of-the-best tour can be a perfect decision. That is how my Spanish friends first showed it to me! And I will show you the way the locals see it. What is Barcelona famous for? Gaudi buildings, sea and fantastic Mediterranean food. Just imagine, that all these things were not well-known among the tourists till the 1990s. This tour can be dynamic and can be more relaxed, at any pace giving you maximum of Barcelona vibe. Promise you a tour full of emotions, a real diving in Barcelona world. Barcelona has lots of questions for you and I have some answers, but some you will have to find on your own. Let's go. I work with private drivers to provide maximum security and comfort.

Maria is very knowledgeable about the history of Barcelona and was able to share great insights into the city as we toured. She customized the tour to suit our needs and wants. He English is excellent. Her driver was very competent and a miracle worker at finding parking spots at the places we wanted to stop and get out and walk around.

Maria was wonderful! It must have been so challenging to plan this tour among the business of the city but she did a fabulous job! She was so informative and full of information!!!
Joseph D.United States
Maria was promptly on time, very professional and relaxed. She was very knowledgeable, covered the highlights of Barcelona. She also arranged for a tour of the Gaudi cathedral for us. She was very careful with us and was always there whenever we finished a stop. Always arranging to meet us after our Gaudi tour and extremely dependable. I would highly recommend her. Joe
