***FULLY LICENSED GUIDE #1747 SINCE 1999*** *** SKIP THE LINES GUARANTEED IN ALL SITES*** Hello, my name is Laura, and I am a tour guide since 1999. I love culture and art and showing my city to our guests! I have a Degree in Tourism and a Postgraduate Degree in Cultural Tourism. . I try to continuously join programs to learn more about our history, art, and culture. I love to be in contact with people from abroad and show them Barcelona through walking tours in the Gothic Quarter and its hidden spots, by making them discover its gastronomy and wines, the art of Picasso, Gaudí and so many artists that had left their footprint here. I also give tours to the F. C. Barcelona Stadium. Barcelona is a spectacular place! Other tours will be in other places in Catalonia: Girona, Dalí Museum, Sitges, or Costa Brava. I mainly give my tours in English and French, but also in Italian, Spanish, or Catalan, my mother language. I can adapt the tours to your needs and if there is something you don't see in the detailed tours here described, ask me, the tour will always be a tailored made tour for you, your family, or your friends. Tours will be always private. Only Licensed Guides like me, can give explanations inside museums or monuments, and we are allowed to skip Museum entrance lines. We will not waste time on that! Contact me, and I will help with anything to make the most of your time in Barcelona! This city is a wonderful place and I invite you to discover it with me! See you soon!

Overview of your Barcelona tour

Picasso arrived in Barcelona with his family at just 13 years old and soon joined the Llotja Art School, where his father was a professor. On this tour, we’ll walk past the first art gallery where he exhibited his work for the first time and stop by the famous "Els Quatre Gats", the iconic tavern for bohemian artists in the late 19th century. We’ll also explore the Gothic Quarter, where you’ll discover the heart of the city, its ancient Roman walls, and stunning Gothic architecture, all while learning about Barcelona’s rich history. The highlight of the tour is a visit to the Picasso Museum, where we’ll delve into the artist’s early years in Málaga and A Coruña, his arrival in Barcelona, and his first trips to Paris, among other key moments of his life and career. This museum offers a unique opportunity to understand the creative journey that transformed Pablo Ruiz Picasso into Picasso. ✔️ Available Tuesday to Sunday (The museum is closed on Mondays) ✔️ Skip-the-line access included
