Hi !!. I'm Francisco M, experienced 100% local tour guide for private tours, only your group. Born and raised in Barcelona at the neighborhood of Gracia. A traveler too that visited Europe, North America, Mexico, Belize, North Africa, Thailand, Bali, Philippines, Vietnam, Czech Republic, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Turkey, Egypt. I understand the effort that takes to put together a trip, mentally and economic. One of the things I always looking for when travelling is to be treat like a local, mingle with the locals to have a local experience and above all, honesty. Sharp on the details to spot many things that the naked eye tends to miss. I will be showing you my beautiful city and explaining the history of the neighborhoods, giving you a lot of information of the sights, buildings and their artists/architects/engineers. I have city tours and tours outside Barcelona with private car, with VIP Mercedes Van, VIP Minibus and walking tours that range from 2 to 8 hours where we can visit Antoni Gaudi sites like Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, Casa Batllo, Casa Mila (La Pedrera), Roman, Gothic quarter, La Rambla, Boqueria Market, Montserrat, Gerona, Costa Brava, Sitges, Tarragona, Dali museum at Figueras and the Penedes region for the wineries/cellars for cava. And obviously I can customize a tour with your preferences, click at my ♥ , so we do not miss each other (heart icon, on the top right corner in my profile) and send a message to let me know your likes and quickly will answer you back with the link to the best tour for you or a customize tour. To top it up, apart from my service as your local tour guide I will bring my camera to take pictures of you and your group from your visit in Barcelona and sends them to you as a keepsake at no extra cost. At the end of the tour I will help you to plan and what to see if you staying longer days in Barcelona. In my experience as a tour guide and in life made me understand that each person or group is unique and what is fast for ones is slow for others. One of my skills is to quickly get to know people and develop a fluid and open communication to understand their needs and adapt the tour to them. I can also address where to buy tickets NO WAITING LINES TICKETS on-line ahead the tour with no commissions. So feel free to send me a message if you have any questions.

Candice C.United States
Francisco was an incredible guide! He was so flexible with our plans, adjusting to what we wanted to see and skip. It was such a bonus to have him capture beautiful family photos as we explored Barcelona! He’s extremely knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating, making us feel welcome every step of the way. The airport pickup went smoothly, and we really appreciated being able to connect with Francisco on WhatsApp beforehand to get all our questions answered. Highly recommend! 🌟
Rod F.United States
It is obvious Francisco knows and loves his city. We could never have gotten as much enjoyment out of hitting these sites on our own.
David P.United States
Francisco was an awesome guide!! He met us promptly at our hotel with a luxurious minivan and came with umbrellas even though we had our own. Our visit to Park GĂĽell was beautiful and Francisco not only pointed out and explained the highlights in detail, but he made sure we had numerous group pictures taken with him as our personal photographer. Next stop was Sagrada Familia where he explained the meaning and history behind all 4 facades as we walked around before being overwhelmed with the beauty inside. We also visited Casa Mila, Casa Batllo, Casa Amatiler, La Rambla, lunch at La Boqueria and multiple other stops in the Gothic Quarter. Francisco was very informative and promptly emailed us dozens of wonderful pictures he had taken during the day. I highly recommend booking with him if you get a chance.
