Alessandro is terrific! We loved every minute with him!! Our visit to Barcelona was to see many of the Gaudi buildings. We had an opportunity to visit the Sagrada Familia twice before out tour with Alessandro. I am so glad we did this because our first visit was so breathtaking I cried. If we had done it with a guide, I would have been in such awe that I might not have heard all the wonderful explanations Alessandro gave us. Now we have a much better understanding of the construction, symbolism, history and what is yet to be built on this most amazing piece of art and architecture. We are so grateful for all the history and explanations of the symbolism in this fantastical and remarkable building. Anyone can take a thousand pictures inside and see its beauty. Only with a guide can you understand the depths of its masterpiece. I feel because of Alessandro I will remember so much information about this building that I have always wanted to visit. Allesandro pointed out so many things that their beauty is now enhanced by the understanding of their form and function. Seeing the basilica before a tour allowed me to have many questions and discussions ready. Alessandro was a treasure of information! We also spent time in Park Guell. Without him we would have enjoyed it but not really understood its form and function as well as its unusual origin. It would be seeing a fabulous cake and not eating it. With Allesandro we got to eat the whole thing! We loved him as a guide and would absolutely use him again for a return trip to Barcelona and for other locations beyond Park Guell and the Sagrada Familia.
