The tour was good , very insightful. But a humble request to please not make the title deceptive as eventually everyone was supposed to pay, and there was a thing that guide said if I don’t contribute anything, minimum 5 euro will be charged from guide’s expense which i obviously wouldn’t want. I respect the efforts and time of the guide but don’t give a free tag to such events maybe call something like pay as you will or something! Otherwise it was a well organised tour

Muy interesante el barrio gótico. Una agradable sorpresa. El guia bien, ameno y nos llevó a sitios muy bonitos y que un turista por su cuenta es dificil que encuentre. Por poner un pero debería ahorrarse referencias parciales a echos sucedidos durante la guerra civil, sobre todo con niños pequeños delante. Pero como digo al principio una grata sorpresa. Translate this opinion into English.

The Gothic Quarter was very interesting. A pleasant surprise. The guide was good, engaging, and took us to some beautiful places that a tourist would be unlikely to find on their own. If I had to find fault, I'd say he should have avoided making partial references to events that happened during the Spanish Civil War, especially with young children present. But as I said at the beginning, a very pleasant surprise. Opinion translated. Show original.

El guia fue ameno, no nos gustó el detalle de tener que alquilar obligatoriamente los auriculares, y que insistiera tanto en lo que el guia tenía que pagar por cada asistente y actividad. Vamos, te estaba diciendo lo que tenías que dar. Por lo demás, bien

The guide was pleasant, but we didn't like the requirement to rent headphones, and how he kept insisting on what he had to pay for each participant and activity. Basically, he was telling us what we had to pay. Otherwise, it was fine.

Me ha parecido normal .tenia mas espectativas piestas en el free tour.nos ha faltado mas informacion.mucho caminar en silencio.y al final no me he quedado con nada.y no es pprque no he puesto interes.gracias..y si se supone que se da la voluntat.ya nos inponen un minimo de 15 euros.

I thought it was normal. I had higher expectations for the free tour. We lacked information, a lot of walking in silence, and in the end, I didn't learn anything. And it's not for lack of interest. Thanks. And if it's supposed to be a pay-what-you-want tour, they're already imposing a minimum of 15 euros.

¡Nos encantó el tour con Cristina por Barcelona! Hizo que el recorrido fuera muy entretenido y llevadero, contándonos la historia de la ciudad de una forma clara, cercana y llena de curiosidades. Fue muy amable con toda la familia y estuvo siempre atenta a nuestras preguntas. Nos llevamos un montón de historias y detalles que seguramente no hubiéramos descubierto recorriendo por nuestra cuenta. ¡Muchas gracias, Cristina, por una experiencia tan linda en Barcelona! Súper recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

We absolutely loved Cristina's tour of Barcelona! She made the tour so entertaining and enjoyable, telling us the city's history in a clear, engaging way, full of interesting facts.

Los guías con mucha experiencia, amables, ágiles...Me gustó el auricular,, solo que ese detalle no estaba en la guía. Pues son 3 euros x personas para usar el dispositivo. Donato nuestro guía, fue ayudando el grupo a entender a concretar hechos históricos y la conformación de la Barcelona Antigua. Gótico y Born está chuleado ya. Translate this opinion into English.

The guides are very experienced, friendly, and quick... I liked the headphones, but that detail wasn't in the guide. It's 3 euros per person to use the device.

We had an amazing time on this walking tour with Franco! He was incredibly knowledgeable, and the way he shared the history made everything so engaging and easy to follow. The tour had a great pace, and Franco was friendly, approachable, and happy to answer everyone’s questions. You can really tell he’s passionate about what he does. We learned so much while having a great time. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Barcelona!
