Licensed Tour Guide in Love with Barcelona. Let me show you why! Hello! My name is David. I was born in Andalusia and hold a degree in tourism, along with extensive experience in hospitality, where I learned to understand, meet, and exceed the needs and expectations of my guests. In 2015, I happened to give a three-day tour and discovered that I enjoyed showcasing everything I love about Barcelona. Following this, I obtained official accreditation as a tour guide. Since then, I have continued to educate myself, learning more and more about the beautiful places we can find in Barcelona and the rest of Catalonia. I offer a variety of city tours, shore excursions, day-outs of town, and customized tours. Just choose the one that suits you best or let me know what you'd like to see and do! People ask me if I ever get tired of always guiding the "same tours. " The answer is always NO. Even if they often run at the same places, the experience is entirely different because each tour is unique and adapted to you. My guests have always appreciated my enthusiasm when I work. Honestly, for me, it does not feel like a job, it's a genuine passion. My children refer to the Sagrada Familia as "Daddy's office. " I consider myself truly fortunate. I am excited about every new tour, meeting you, and conveying all the passion I feel for the places we are going to visit. Feel free to ask me any questions or concerns before or during our tour. My goal is that you fully enjoy it. And also. . . I love gastronomy and have a good list of recommended restaurants for you where we can share a meal while we are touring, or you can enjoy it on your own. I will happily take pictures of you, I know many good spots. People say I'm not bad at all! Let me guide you to live an unforgettable 5⭐ experience. - Official Licensed Tour Guide of Barcelona and Catalonia. Certificate issued by the Generalitat (Catalan Government) - License number 2992. - Member of AGUICAT (Association GUIdes CATalonia) - Bachelor's degree in Tourism (University of Cadiz). - Master in Business Administration (Chamber of Commerce of Castellón). - MBA in Hospitality and Tourism Management (EAE Business School, Barcelona). - Specialization course in Montserrat. - Complementary training courses in the history of Catalan Art. - FIDE rated chess player.

Overview of your Barcelona tour

In this tour, you will learn why Antoni Gaudi is one of the greatest architects ever. Stroll along Passeig de Gràcia, our Champs Elysees and delve into the architectural beauty of the Modernist Barcelona. Admire the whimsical façades of Casa Batlló and Casa Milá and then head up to Park Güell to enjoy one of the best views over the city and the Mediterranean Sea. That's where you will find the iconic salamander. And finally, as the icing on the cake complete the tour at the breathtaking Sagrada Familia church. (If we tour in the afternoon, Sagrada Familia will be visited first to have the opportunity to enjoy the golden hour and the beautiful reflections of the stained glass windows)

Look no further for your tour guide in BCN! David is all you are hoping your tour guide to be -- Professional, Knowledgable, Fun, Enthusiastic, A great listener, A great storyteller, Kind, and Relatable. Our group of 4 took his Gaudi tour, and came away with the full experience of feeling like we learned so much, and had a wonderful time ...and David is a great photographer to boot! Can't recommend him and his tours more! We honestly can not wait to do another tour with him again next time in BCN as well as tell all heading to this wonderful city to take his tours. -----Robert

David was amazing. Great Gaudi knowledge. Knew how to incorporate some seating stops along the way so didn’t get too tired of standing. Helped with after tour planning of best taxi services to use for a trip to Girona, jewelry & other shopping, restaurants….He was a perfect guide for seeing & understanding Gaudi but also for understanding more about Barcelona.

This was a fantastic tour. David brought us through Parc Guell and the Sagrada together with two of Gaudi’s “houses” . His explanations of Gaudi’s work and his intersection of nature and art were so interesting. David has obviously devoted time and effort to understanding Gaudi’s contributions to the art world and Barcelona . David also assisted us with recommendations re restaurants and other sightseeing spots in beautiful Barcelona. I would thoroughly recommend David to anyone visiting this beautiful city.

David was fantastic. Very fun and knowledgeable. We booked this very last minute and he was able to still get us tickets. Highly recommend David if you are touring in Barcelona!

Spent the day with David in Barcelona. He was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable and passionate about his city. Not only did we see all the typical spots, David adds local knowledge and humor to make the experience special at each location we visited. Highly recommend when in Barcelona. 5 stars!!

Transport details

We'll need to use cabs to get from site to site. If you are 4 or more, I highly recommend hiring a taxi for the first hour; sometimes, finding large taxis or 2 taxis gets complicated.
