These two sites in Barcelona are amazing and seeing them in a small group (only 7 in ours) made a huge difference. It was a very personal tour with a fantastic guide (Jordi or George (in America). He explained so much and included stories that brought the experience of the creation/building to life. He helped (with things like stairs and getting the best photo from certain sites). Plus, he knew a great deal of history and was obviously deeply appreciative of Gaudi's works. He was the best guide!

Amazing tour!! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and had an awesome personality. Very easy to interact with. Did not feel rushed throughout the tour. Went at a great pace and was able to get amazing photos along the way. Would highly recommend booking this tour!

This was honestly the most fun we’ve had. The class was enjoyable. The instructor was phenomenal. The paella was 10 stars! Take this class it will ruin all other paella for the rest if your life.

Anays was a fantastic guide- she was engaging, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. The tour was so beautiful and the end destination at the Caller del Mas vineyard was breathtaking (and delicious)
