I am a licensed official tourist guide in Barcelona with over 12 years of experience. I am an academic specialist in various fields, including art, archaeology, history, culinary arts, and anthropology and I am the owner of Guide Me Barcelona Tours. With Italian and Greek roots, I was drawn to Barcelona, where I went on to earn an MA in History & Cultural Heritage Management. Since 2015, I’ve been sharing my deep passion for the city by guiding visitors through Barcelona’s rich history and vibrant present. With a profound love for this extraordinary place, I guide guests on and beyond the typical tourist routes, offering immersive experiences that connect travelers with the authentic spirit of Barcelona and Catalonia. My tours are more than just sightseeing—they are engaging, insightful, and entertaining journeys that spark meaningful conversations about the world around us. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a food lover, an art aficionado, or simply seeking a genuine local adventure, I craft personalized experiences tailored to your interests, ensuring an unforgettable journey.

Overview of your Barcelona tour

Explore Gràcia, one of Barcelona’s most authentic and creative neighborhoods, on a private 3-hour walking tour away from the tourist areas. This experience offers a closer look at everyday local life in a district known for its artistic spirit, independent culture, and strong sense of community. With my background in history and anthropology, I’ll explain how Gràcia developed as a former independent town and how this past still shapes its identity today. As we walk through small streets and lively squares, we’ll explore local traditions and social life. Along the way, we’ll stop for a vermouth tasting with local food and pass by Casa Vicens, Antoni Gaudí’s first major work, seen from the outside.
