Très bien. Nous avons découvert de belles choses et notre guide Andres a été super. Il a répondu à toutes nos questions. Avait des photos pour nous montrer l'ancienne Barcelone. Et prenait soin de nous mettre à l'ombre pendant les explications en anglais. Gracias. Translate this opinion into English.

Excellent. We discovered some wonderful things and our guide Andres was fantastic. He answered all our questions, had photos to show us old Barcelona, and made sure we sat in the shade during his explanations in English. Thank you. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy buen tour, con información interesante, duración adecuada y un guía atento. Como mejora, agradecería más puntualidad y unos auriculares más cómodos. Al ser free tour, creo que basta con explicar el sistema de aportaciones sin insistir sobre qué cantidades son “adecuadas”. En general, una experiencia muy positiva. Translate this opinion into English.

A very good tour, with interesting information, a suitable duration, and an attentive guide. As improvements, I would appreciate greater punctuality and more comfortable headphones. Since it's a free tour, I think it's sufficient to explain the donation system without dwelling on what amounts are "appropriate." Overall, a very positive experience. Opinion translated.

El guía Cristian ha sido absolutamente excepcional. Cuando una persona te cuenta la historia con esa pasión, es imposible no contagiarse y en 2 horas y 20 min hemos descubierto tantas cosas sobre la ciudad que repetiríamos mil veces este tour. 1000% recomendadísimo!!! Translate this opinion into English.

The guide Cristian has been absolutely exceptional. When a person tells you the history with that passion, it's impossible not to get caught up in it, and in 2 hours and 20 minutes we discovered so many things about the city that we would repeat this tour a thousand times. 1000% highly recommended!!!

Excelente free tour de Martin!!! Como Argentina me sentí muy orgullosa que un compatriota estuviese a cargo del free tour pero no sólo por compartir nacionalidad si no por el excelente conociendo que trasmitió de una manera profesional y amena de la historia de Barcelona!! Sin duda lo mejor de nuestro viaje de Barcelona. Gracias Martin!!! Translate this opinion into English.

Martin's free tour was excellent! As an Argentinian, I felt very proud that a fellow countryman was leading the tour, not only because we share a nationality but also because of the excellent knowledge he conveyed about Barcelona's history in a professional and engaging way! Without a doubt, the best part of our trip to Barcelona. Thank you, Martin! Opinion translated. Show original.

Ayer me mandaron un email cambiándome el horario y yo ya tenía agendado, tanto antes como después otras actividades, por lo que tuve que terminar antes para poder llegar a la otra actividad previamente agendada. Por otra parte , el guía Benito estuvo muy bien

Yesterday I received an email changing my schedule and I already had other activities planned both before and after, so I had to finish early to make it to the other previously scheduled activity. On the other hand, the guide Benito was very good.

I liked the tour really much. I hold a phd in early modern history focused on southeastern Eurole and wanted to know more about historical Barcelona. I was fascinated about the smaller details of history our guide Ricardo shared with us. The tour is around 2 hours but time really flies and there was so much to see and comment. Would recommend the tour to everyone to get to know roman, medieval and early modern Barcelona.

Nos encantó este free tour; sin duda, de todos los que hemos hecho, ¡nuestro favorito! Barcelona es espectacular y la ruta fue perfecta, pero gran parte del mérito es de David. Explicó todo con pasión, dedicación y mucho dinamismo, combinando historia, leyendas y curiosidades. Siempre atento a nuestras dudas y dispuesto a recomendarnos lugares, horarios y precios. Si volvemos a Barcelona, repetiremos con él. ¡Enhorabuena, David! Translate this opinion into English.

He was always attentive to our questions and willing to recommend places, times, and prices. If we return to Barcelona, we'll definitely book with him again. Congratulations, David!

Nuestro guía fue Fran y es el mejor walking tour que he tomado en la vida. Fran ama lo que hace y se nota, nos guió a través del tiempo en la historia de Barcelona, el tour no solo fue interesante sino que también divertido, al final Fran nos compartió una guía de lugares para comer o tomar vino y hasta ahora he ido a 4 y son lugares preciosos. Muchísimas gracias Fran, por guías como él uno quiere seguir conociendo el mundo de esta manera. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide was Fran, and it was the best walking tour I've ever taken. Fran loves what he does, and it shows. He guided us through the history of Barcelona, and the tour was not only interesting but also fun. At the end, Fran shared a guide to places to eat and drink wine, and so far I've been to four, and they're all wonderful. Thank you so much, Fran! It's guides like him that make you want to keep exploring the world this way. Opinion translated. Show original.

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

Tips for free tours are voluntary and depend on satisfaction. Guides may suggest a tip to maintain service quality, but it's never mandatory. We apologize if this caused discomfort. We appreciate your positive feedback on tour organization.

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. She was so kind to the whole family and always attentive to our questions. We came away with tons of stories and details that we definitely wouldn't have discovered exploring on our own. Thank you so much, Cristina, for such a wonderful experience in Barcelona! Highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.
