***FULLY LICENSED OFFICIAL GUIDE (since 2008)***. I was surrounded by architecture, art and history since I was a baby, and I love it. . . and I am a COMEDIAN as well, so you can be AMUSED with proper information! My goal is that YOU ENJOY while LEARNING about the city, the monuments, its artists, the paintings; or maybe while eating a bit of 'Jamon' and drinking a nice cup of Penedés. I will start our private tour asking you about your wishes to tailor it. You might be interested in details more than general information, or more in photography rather than historical data. Only a few minutes face to face is my strategy for a perfect customized tour based on your requests and taste. At the end, all your expectations and wishes will be accomplished, and you will feel pleased and content. Everything is connected: the walls of Gothic Barcelona cathedral are so tall because of pirates. PIRATES? Yes, Sir. Ask me why. I will give you true data with interesting ANECDOTES. I love to connect art, social, historical data, anecdotes and compare them with different countries or actual happenings. The tours I prepare are art oriented and at the same time FUN. I can personalize any of those and turn them, all of a sudden, into something else such for example a gastronomic tour if this is what it is needed in that moment. I try to be FLEXIBLE, and I understand that after flying so many miles, you deserve the best because THIS - IS - YOUR- HOLIDAY! Barcelona, Girona, or Tarragona are a GIFT OF LIGHT, art, history, traditions, gastronomy, joy and… much more. LET ME SHARE ALL OF THIS WITH YOU! SPECIAL NOTE I will do EVERYTHING in my hands (and more) to get your tickets, but there are some venues that are still going through the effects of low staffing and change in procedures due to the pandemic, therefore; I DISCLAIM ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY in buying tickets of any kind, unfortunately. - LICENSED GUIDE #2591 since 2008, Generalitat de Catalunya government - History of Art, 3 Years at the Universitat de Barcelona, 1 year in Mimar Sinan University of Istanbul, and Tourism in Sant Ignasi - Member of AGUICAT Associació de Guies de Catalunya - Member of European Federation of Tourist Guide Associations - Member of World Federation of Tourist Guide Association None.

We had the absolute most amazing time with Ona while visiting Sagrada Família! She was so brilliant and so funny, she made the entire experience the most fun part of Barcelona! She was so good at explaining the most important parts of the Basílica. She made a point to correlate the art with each piece we walked by. When we come back in 2033, once it’s complete, we will be booking Ona again!
Ona was amazing. Her communication was timely, very clear, warm and professional. She requested a photo of us the day of the tour so she could recognize us and she gave us a photo of her & her clothing so we could recognize her. Ona was very straightforward in her instructions on where to meet at Sagrada Família and she was perfectly on time. She obtained our tickets to enter the cathedral & to climb the tower. Ona was very knowledgeable and explained in easy to understand and concise manner using a lot of humor! She insisted upon taking photos of us with our phone cameras which was much appreciated. We thoroughly enjoyed the private tour. This tour was worth every penny. We highly recommend Ona.
Ona was outstanding. My sister and I had waited 52 years....yes 52 years,.... to revisit Sagrada Familia and Ona was just the perfect guide to enlighten us about the myriad of developments over all those many years. Ona was a true professional, knowledgeable and a joy to be be with during the tour.
Ona was incredible! Super lovely and made our tour a very special experience.
We had a wonderful tour. The guide was knowledgeable and professional. The schedule was flexible to meet our needs. We would highly recommend this group.
Ona did a nice job of guiding us through the Sagrada Familia and avoiding much of the crowds. Her knowledge of the Church was both interesting and helpful.
We will try to do the tour in a chronological manner: - Museum shorts - Nativity façade with all the sculptures, the heights, the door, and the main altar with the crypt of the first architect; Main nave - Columns - The beautiful stain glass windows - Main door and the longest view. After the sacristy, we will visit: - Passion façade - School of Sagrada Familia If you decide to visit the TOWERS separately, It is complicate, they can cancel by weather or any other reason. An elevator takes us up but there are more than 350 steps to go back down. NOT for Height, claustrophobie Issues Nor small children. * The itinerary can be adjusted due to the work in progress inside the place.
