Hello! Nice to meet you:) I am Montse and I'm a licensed local guide in Barcelona and Catalunya. I am a graduate in Audiovisual Communication and I also have a Master in script writing. For many years I have been combining Tourism work with the performing arts, cinema and theatre . This two areas which would appear to be unconnected have actually made me the kind of guide I am. You will be able to discover the city as if you were watching a film. We can include visual poetry and narrative in the way we walk around the city! Fall in love with Barcelona and Catalonia! I can show you the popular venus, the hidden gems and the quiet places where we locals go. On foot, by bike or with our own driver. I am interested in art, history and culture in general and I am constantly updating. Tell me what interests you and I can design a tailored made tour which will give you a truly great experience. -Official Guide License, issued by the Catalan Government. That means I can explain inside the monuments and skip the line in most of the monuments. -Experience as a private guide since 2014 -Experience coordinating tours and logistics for international football academies and school groups, including children and teenagers since 2017. -Official Guide License, issued by the Balearic Islands Government -Bachelor's Degree in Audiovisual Communication, University Pompeu Fabra -MA in Screenwriting, University of Barcelona -Semester in Communication Studies in Roskilde University, Denmark -Member of AGUICAT (Professional licensed tour guides Association of Catalonia) -Performing arts and singing courses. -First-aid course training and experience as a lifeguard.

Overview of your Barcelona tour

Visit the symbol of Barcelona, the neverending building, the Highlight. While we are inside, we will learn about it in detail, to understand how Gaudí transcended his work as an architect to become a polyhedral artist, a genius. On this tour we will look closer at Gaudí's legacy to understand why this eccentric man was before his time and why Barcelona keeps building his living testament: la Sagrada Familia. This is a must on your schedule in Barcelona, even if you have seen many photos of it, you can no get an idea of what Sagrada Familia really is. . . you have to experience it! Feel its light, its colours, the design, the symbology and much more with my private tour to get the most of it.

The tour was great. I booked it last minute and I was lucky Montse was available. She is super nice and knowledgeable. It was not too long nor too short. Beautiful place!

Si tu grupo incluye niños y adolescentes, tienes que llamar a Montse. Nuestra familia de 6 (con niños de 9, 11 y 13) estuvo horas atenta a sus historias. Montse es una narradora natural, hiló cada lugar con un relato interesante y vivo, hizo el tour interactivo haciendo trivia y pidiendo a los niños que buscaran detalles en los lugares que íbamos conociendo. Una mezcla de historia, biógrafía, arte, arquitectura, cultura y hasta un poquito de “cotilleo” (como dicen en España) todo envuelto en hermosas narraciones contadas con el cariño que sólo un local puede tener. Tengo que resaltar que Montse tiene una energía maravillosa, es un deleite conocer lugares con ella. Ya reserva con ella y no gastes más tiempo.

Montse is a fantastic guide. We are a family of five with three teenagers. All three teenagers said they enjoyed the information we learned from Montse who shared her knowledge and passion for La Sagrada Família, Antonio Gaudi as well as her hometown of Barcelona. If anyone who’s had teenagers will know, it’s not easy to keep three teens entertained and interested for two hours when they’re hot and tired. Montse did so with enthusiasm. We all would recommend booking Montse as a guide in Barcelona.

Montse is an exceptional host and guide for our tour of La Sagrada Familia, and her kind attention to our children literally saved our tour by drawing our children into the tour with interactive activities and questions while viewing the cathedral. This was our second visit to La Sagrada, but the first visit for our children, and Montse brought knowledge that we did not learn on our first visit. She recognized immediately that our children were tired, and she adjusted her tour to directly involve them.

Montse was a great guide , full of interesting and fun facts about Gaudi and the sagrada familia. Montse is very knowledgeable and has very clear English, making the two hour tour a pleasurable experience for us. Would recommend her for your tour in Barcelona.
