***FULLY LICENSED TOUR GUIDE #2754 (since 2010) *** SKIP THE LINE GUARANTEED AT ALL SITES Hi! I am Francesc. I was born in Barcelona when it was not a touristic city. Little by little the city became tourist and I went into this world (more than 25 years ago). Nowadays, I'm a guide and this is my full time job: I really enjoy doing it. I offer Private tours all over Barcelona and Catalonia (Montserrat, Cadaqués, Costa Brava, Dalí, etc). My clients say I am very passionate when I tour them. Well, I put myself in their shoes and I think: one trip sometimes is the result of a long time, maybe months or years preparing it. When you travel, you are going to an unexplored land, but you wish everything goes perfect: your flight, your hotel and, of course, your tour guide. I realize if you decide to take a tour guide it is because you think it's the best way to know this place. Therefore, my responsibility is huge in order to live up to your expectations. That's why I will do everything in my power to make your trip perfect. If you look for a more personal and enjoyable tour, just let yourself be amazed!!! ***FULLY LICENSED TOUR GUIDE #2754 (since 2010) *** SKIP THE LINE GUARANTEED AT ALL SITES (see the license picture in my profile pictures) Member of the APIT Barcelona (Association of Professional Tourist Guides).

The surrealism of Dalí and the medieval town of Girona (Jewish heritage also) with a private licensed guide
Overview of your Barcelona tour
"Je suis le surrealism" ("I am the surrealism") - Dalí said. Let me tell you that this is the most unusual museum I've ever seen. Forget the concept of a museum as an exhibition of pictures. Dali wanted to surprise who visited his theatre-museum and I can tell you that a lot of people have confessed me "it's the first museum that surprised me!" Going inside it is like being inside the artist mind. He liked things with double effects: making people see one thing that hides another fact. My objective is for you to see this hidden reality. It's impossible to be indifferent after visiting this museum. We'll have lunch at Girona, where History & Legend come together. In Girona we'll visit the old Jewish Synagogue with the recent discovered Mikveh, inheritance from the large Jewish Community that settled here; the Girona Cathedral, with the biggest Gothic Nave in the world; and the Arab Baths to see how people lived in the Middle Ages. We'll also walk along the Rambla of Girona and the Archeological Garden

Samuel L.United States
We had a wonderful day with Francese. He could not have been a better guide. He had a lot of knowledge and explained what we were seeing with clarity and depth. He also was fun to be with and generally a nice person. Would love to travel with him again.
Sophie T.United States
The Dali museum was definitely a highlight, a must see place. Francesc was absolutely right by describing it as unusual. Francesc is well-versed in Dali's art and life, and he made this trip very engaging. Girona was also a great choice. Seeing the city, especially the Old Quarter, the medieval architecture, and the history of the place so extensively recounted by Francesc, made the entire tour delightful and memorable. From the very beginning and throughout the all-day-tour, Francesc was very attuned to our wishes and particular interests, and made excellent suggestions. We definitely recommend this tour and Francesc as a guide. Sophie T.
Sue W.United States
This tour was day three with touring with Francesc. We had the best day, although, because of the drenching rain and slow progress of my wheelchair, we ended up changing plans at the end. Francesc knows the Dali Museum well, and learning about Salvador Dali and getting a good understanding of the artwork turned out to be quite enjoyable. Also, having a late lunch in Genoa was great. Francesc demonstrated his priority in making certain we were always comfortable and happy, even though he had to take many steps in the pouring rain. One of his best gifts is his ability to listen, and he made sure our day was super. Before I booked Francesc for any tours, I could see by his reviews that he would be very good. He is an excellent tour guide.
Marvin Z.United States
Francesc was an amazing guide- extremely personable, very knowledgeable about all aspects of Spain, and very flexible with our tour plans. Highly recommend him for any tour in the Barcelona area.
