Welcome to Barcelona, where I create private, tailor-made tours for curious travellers. I’m a licensed local guide who has always been inspired by art, history, and the landscapes of Catalonia. Growing up in a small medieval town surrounded by nature shaped my love for culture from an early age, and today, sharing that passion with travelers is one of my greatest joys. I’m curious, warm, and deeply connected to the stories that give each place its soul. I began my tourism studies in Barcelona, a city that quickly became my professional home, and later continued my training with an Erasmus program in Tuscany. Over the years, I’ve developed a special love for creating unique, author-style tours that go beyond the usual routes. From handcrafted cultural itineraries to bicycle and e-bike tours that help travelers enjoy the city in a relaxed and immersive way, I love designing experiences that feel personal, authentic, and full of character. I guide in Catalan, Spanish, and English, and I have a strong background in accessibility thanks to my earlier studies in occupational therapy at the university. I’ve also enriched my understanding of local wines through sommelier training and hands-on experience, which helps me introduce travelers to the wine culture and culinary traditions of Catalonia in a warm and approachable way. I would be delighted to welcome you and help you discover the magic of Barcelona and Catalonia. Whether you’re looking for history, food, architecture, landscapes, or a truly original experience, I’m here to create a personalized journey that feels warm, meaningful, and unforgettable. Looking forward to exploring together! - Red Cross first-aid certificate - Government licensed tour guide.

Overview of your Barcelona tour

I invite you to discover my hometown, Cardona, on an exclusive private day tour where history, nature, fine wines and gastronomy come together. With private pickup from your hotel or cruise port in Barcelona, we travel comfortably to this remarkable medieval town—a place I know deeply and love to share with my guests. We explore the extraordinary Salt Mountain, a unique natural wonder formed over millions of years, and I explain how salt shaped Cardona’s wealth and identity. We then visit the iconic Medieval Castle of Cardona, dramatically overlooking the valley, where history truly comes to life. The experience continues at a historic 12th-century winery with Designation of Origin, where you will enjoy four guided wine tastings of local Catalan wines. We finish with a gourmet lunch featuring carefully selected regional products, enjoyed in an authentic and elegant setting. Travel in comfort with a private guide and vehicle, enjoying a relaxed and refined experience before returning to Barcelona.
