Francisco is the best..we have taken about 4 tour days with him....including up the coast from Barcelona to the Dali Museum...he picks the best seaside restaurants for lunch., is so knowledgeable and so much fun. He really listens to your preferences and plans accordingly.
Six of us had a fantastic tour with Francisco yesterday of Barcelona. Francisco is very personable, knows the cutie and its history so well, and was able to customize the tour to our groups looking. Our first stop was to a tapas restaurant where we felt we were treated like kings. He helped the group order the just right amount of food. Our tour ran like by 30 minutes and he seemed to enjoy our company as much as we enjoyed his. A nice touch is he carried a camera and took ma y group pictures that he will be sending to us all. We highly recommend Francisco to any English speaking people who want an enjoyable tour of Barcelona.
This was a great tour. The convenience of being pick up at the cruise port and being in a comfortale vehicle made a great different. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and flexible with the the day's agenda. We would highly recommend him!
Francisco M our guide was outstanding. He provided detailed information on the sights we visited. Pointed out highlights of buildings and monuments that we would never have heard about in a large tour or a tour we did on our own. Having a van with driver in addition to Francisco saved a lot of time moving about Barcelona, trying to find a parking spot. A big added plus, Francisco took pictures of us at key locations and sent them to us. Terrace tour
FRANCISCO was an absolutely fantastic tour guide! Our half day tour included Park Guell and Sagrada Familia. After our two main stop’s Francisco added some additional buildings designed by Gaudi. They were stunning! Francisco was so informative and pointed out many details we would have missed otherwise. The Mercedes van was roomy and very cool and comfortable. David as our driver was polite and very punctual. It was a treat to have the van nearby when we finished our tour. HIGHLY recommend Francisco as your Barcelona guide! He gave us a fact filled and very interesting tour.
Francisco was a terrific guide. His knowledge of landmarks and history was vast, and he made it all so interesting. He was fun, thoughtful and accommodating. He made our short visit to Barcelona memorable. I highly recommend Francisco to anyone who wants to make the most of their trip.
The itinerary is vast, therefore is a over view city tour, where we will have some stops with walks on the sites, it is not intended to go inside monuments or museums nevertheless if you wish to go inside to any of them, it can be done but that will take time for other sites to see. Contact me for the links to purchase the tickets, just if you wish to go inside a month before the tour. Not mandatory to do the tour.
