I’m an experienced and educated private tour guide in Barcelona and Catalonia, offering immersive, tailor-made experiences that explore the region’s rich history, art, architecture, and gastronomy. My tours highlight everything from modernist landmarks and medieval Jewish quarters to Roman ruins and hidden corners of the city. We delve into unique themes such as the Convivencia of medieval Spain, the Indianos period, the lives of Picasso and Dalí, and, of course, Mediterranean cuisine — especially Catalan flavors. For those interested in shopping with soul, I also offer exclusive access to vintage and artisan shops, where you can discover rare ceramics, antiques, and handmade treasures. I’ve been guiding since 2016, a path that grew from my love of food, storytelling, and culture. It’s a role that led me back to university, where I study history to deepen my knowledge and share it with travelers from all over the world. Every tour is a conversation. I believe there’s something fascinating in everyone — and I love the exchange of stories, ideas, and laughter along the way. Let me show you the best of Barcelona, Montserrat, Girona, and beyond — with heart, insight, and unforgettable moments. - English studies at Dalarna University, Sweden - currently studying History at Stockholm University - Meisner and Chubbuck Technique courses at The Actors Workshop, Barcelona, Spain - Short film screenwriting course at Bigoli Studios, Barcelona, Spain - Produced documentary film "Killing Gävle" available to watch on The Guardian, UK

Overview of your Barcelona tour

Step into Barcelona’s rich tapestry: a city where Roman foundations meet modern elegance, and every corner tells a story. From ancient ruins to vibrant neighborhoods, immerse yourself in the city's cultural blend where Sefarad Jews, Muslims, and Christians once coexisted. Wander through the iconic Eixample district, bridging old Barcelona with the bohemian charm of Gracia, and marvel at the genius of Catalan Modernism. Unveil Gaudi’s architectural wonders, including the awe-inspiring Sagrada Familia, a masterpiece of devotion and creativity. Ascend Montjuïc, the Mountain of the Jews, for breathtaking views and stories of Olympic grandeur. Along the way, indulge in a culinary journey at 4 Gats, the historic café where Picasso dined and dreamed. This private tour is tailored to immerse you in Barcelona’s rich history, artistic triumphs, and vibrant soul. Join me to uncover Barcelona’s essence—a journey where every step reveals a masterpiece and every moment inspires.
