“This was one of the most memorable tours that I have done on any of the trips that I have taken by land, by sea, and by river! Our tour guide, Berta, was absolutely amazing! Her knowledge of the history of Barcelona, navigating the streets of the Old City, taking us to the various locations for the tapas and beverages, cannot compare to any other experiences I’ve had on group tours. Those in our tour group would most certainly share how personable, knowledgeable, professional, and caring Berta was. On a scale of 1 to 10 this was a 20!!! What a fantastic experience to have had during my first trip…”

Even though I was the only person who booked due to bad weather conditions, he didn’t cancel — he showed up and gave me a truly special VIP experience. Euan is incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much amazing, mind-blowing information that brought the city to life. It felt personal, engaging, and thoughtfully curated. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better introduction to Barcelona. Highly recommended!”

Mirko (who you spend the day with) is very friendly and gave us a walking tour of the city taxi ride to the heli pad, and a taxi to the boat Only con is missing the timing for the upgraded boat, if you have any upgrades tell Mirko at the start of the day as you may need to go first on the helicopter or taxi around earlier”
