Hello! Nice to meet you:) I am Montse and I'm a licensed local guide in Barcelona and Catalunya. I am a graduate in Audiovisual Communication and I also have a Master in script writing. For many years I have been combining Tourism work with the performing arts, cinema and theatre . This two areas which would appear to be unconnected have actually made me the kind of guide I am. You will be able to discover the city as if you were watching a film. We can include visual poetry and narrative in the way we walk around the city! Fall in love with Barcelona and Catalonia! I can show you the popular venus, the hidden gems and the quiet places where we locals go. On foot, by bike or with our own driver. I am interested in art, history and culture in general and I am constantly updating. Tell me what interests you and I can design a tailored made tour which will give you a truly great experience. -Official Guide License, issued by the Catalan Government. That means I can explain inside the monuments and skip the line in most of the monuments. -Experience as a private guide since 2014 -Experience coordinating tours and logistics for international football academies and school groups, including children and teenagers since 2017. -Official Guide License, issued by the Balearic Islands Government -Bachelor's Degree in Audiovisual Communication, University Pompeu Fabra -MA in Screenwriting, University of Barcelona -Semester in Communication Studies in Roskilde University, Denmark -Member of AGUICAT (Professional licensed tour guides Association of Catalonia) -Performing arts and singing courses. -First-aid course training and experience as a lifeguard.

Let's travel back in time to explore how everything started for Barcelona. To understand where we are now we need to know where we come from. Stroll with me through more than 2000 years of history and discover the streets, squares and hidden corners of the Gothic and Born Quarters. We will look at the Romans remains, you will hear about legends and myths of Medieval Ages and I will make you observe how the stones can reveal many secrets. Reality always exceeds fiction, we only have to study our own history to realize about it. I will share with you stories from our past, anecdotes and crazy traditions while we admire the architectural jewels from medieval times which are living proof of an splendorous time for the city. Feel like an insider walking with me around the vibrant maze that is the Old Town of Barcelona.
-Catalunya Square -Fresh Food Market of La Boqueria on La Rambla -La Rambla and the narrow streets of the Gothic Quarter -Medieval Barcelona -Saint James Square (City Hall and the Catalan President's Palace) -The Old Jewish Quarter -Petritxol street -Santa Maria del Pi basilica (XIV century) -Barcelona's Cathedral (XIV century) -King's Square -Born District -Santa Maria del Mar Basilica (XIV century) -Montcada street

This is mainly a walking tour, Old City Barcelona was not built to be driven by cars or mini vans, the streets and alleys are very narrow. Most of the streets we will explore are just for pedestrians. All the streets are paved and we can avoid steps by using ramps. If you wish any transportation please contact me and I will arrange it with an extra cost.
