A traveler too that visited Europe, North America, Mexico, Belize, North Africa, Thailand, Bali, Philippines, Vietnam, Czech Republic, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Turkey, Egypt. I understand the effort that takes to put together a trip, mentally and economic. One of the things I always looking for when travelling is to be treat like a local, mingle with the locals to have a local experience and above all, honesty. Sharp on the details to spot many things that the naked eye tends to miss. I will be showing you my beautiful city and explaining the history of the neighborhoods, giving you a lot of information of the sights, buildings and their artists/architects/engineers. I have city tours and tours outside Barcelona with private car, with VIP Mercedes Van, VIP Minibus and walking tours that range from 2 to 8 hours where we can visit Antoni Gaudi sites like Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, Casa Batllo, Casa Mila (La Pedrera), Roman, Gothic quarter, La Rambla, Boqueria Market, Montserrat, Gerona, Costa Brava, Sitges, Tarragona, Dali museum at Figueras and the Penedes region for the wineries/cellars for cava.

For those who are in Barcelona and want to get to see the most important Barcelona's sights with the comfort of a private vehicle and walking. Being born and raised in Barcelona, makes me a truly local tour guide, allowing me to show you my beautiful city sharing my personal insights, opinions and experiences from my childhood to a family men while explaining the facts of the buildings, architects and sites we will be visiting. How my city and I grow up together over the past 50 years, which definitely we had big changes. Travelers that have being with me, all says is like to be with family or true friend that looks out for your best interests. I view myself like a Gaudi's mosaic and one of those pieces is my background as a photographer. So I will bring my camera to take pictures of you and your group and send them to you as a gift.
We loved our morning with Francisco. He was so pleasant and knowledgeable. The tour was thorough and efficient, just as I like it. He covered all the things, told us just what we needed to know, and answered questions. He clearly loves and appreciates his home city, and, of course, he knows it very well. I would absolutely recommend him!
Francesco is a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. His tour was very informative and is recommend for groups or individuals.
We had an amazing tour with Francisco. He showed us all around Barcelona. He knew many historical facts we did not know and we learned many other areas to visit in the city. I would highly recommend Francisco if you’re visiting the city. He had a very nice car and we were able to get around to many areas with his skilled knowledge. We would definitely book again.
We had an amazing experience exploring Barcelona with Francisco as our guide! He was incredibly engaging and made the city’s history and culture come alive with his stories and insights. Francisco was also very accommodating, always making sure everyone in our group felt comfortable and included. Thanks to him, we discovered hidden gems and saw the best of Barcelona. Highly recommend Francisco to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable tour!
We recommend Francisco’s Express tour for those who want to get the lay of the land of the city. He met us right at our hotel and we had a combination of walking and driving to see the sites.
Francisco was a wonderful and respectful guide. he took us around the city explaining the important aspects. Since its a ,ere 4 hrs tour we got down in 2-4 places and saw others while in the car ( You can later come and explore those areas which may require couple of hours). Francisco makes sure he has his professional lens with him through the tour and takes good photograph and emails it to you at the end of the day. We had a nice time with him and highly recommend him for the city tour
