***FULLY LICENSED GUIDE #1747 SINCE 1999*** *** SKIP THE LINES GUARANTEED IN ALL SITES*** Hello, my name is Laura, and I am a tour guide since 1999. I love culture and art and showing my city to our guests! I have a Degree in Tourism and a Postgraduate Degree in Cultural Tourism. . I try to continuously join programs to learn more about our history, art, and culture. I love to be in contact with people from abroad and show them Barcelona through walking tours in the Gothic Quarter and its hidden spots, by making them discover its gastronomy and wines, the art of Picasso, Gaudí and so many artists that had left their footprint here. I also give tours to the F. C. Barcelona Stadium. Barcelona is a spectacular place! Other tours will be in other places in Catalonia: Girona, Dalí Museum, Sitges, or Costa Brava. I mainly give my tours in English and French, but also in Italian, Spanish, or Catalan, my mother language. I can adapt the tours to your needs and if there is something you don't see in the detailed tours here described, ask me, the tour will always be a tailored made tour for you, your family, or your friends. Tours will be always private. Only Licensed Guides like me, can give explanations inside museums or monuments, and we are allowed to skip Museum entrance lines. We will not waste time on that! Contact me, and I will help with anything to make the most of your time in Barcelona! This city is a wonderful place and I invite you to discover it with me! See you soon!

Overview of your Barcelona tour

Discover the old city with this 3 hour walking tour. Past and present, great monuments and great history. What was the name of Barcelona during Roman times? What's the origin of the name "Ramblas"? Did you know that Barcelona's political power is at the same place for the last 2000 years? What is the connection between Barcelona with Christopher Columbus? We will see important monuments in the Gothic Quarter such as the Cathedral and Royal Palace, as well as the famous boulevard "Las Ramblas" and several charming squares as Sant Felip Neri. We'll also explore the neighborhood of Born. Radioguides are included. Ask me for bigger groups.
