There is so much to see in Barcelona you can spend a lifetime exploring all the magical places and hidden gems. Since I´d been dedicating my lifetime to it, I am very happy to show what´s there is to see in a very effective way. We can do a tour of the main sights in 1, 2 or 3 hours, we can also spread it to multiple sessions so that you make sure you saw the ´must see spots´.
But if you´re reading this it probably means you already did one of my tours and if I managed to spark your interest and you are curious about knowing more, here you find overviews of sights we could go deeper into in a private tour.
Or you can just use it as an inspiration to see what else there is to explore.

Gaudi in Barcelona - by chronological order
Out of 13 works Gaudi has in Barcelona 7 of them are UNESCO heritage. For sure you'll see Sagrada Familia and Casa Batlló, but if you were so taken by by this ´God´s architect´ that you would want to explore more of his works in Barcelona I will happily dive into the detail of Gaudí´s genius while exploring more of his work.

Old Town
There are centuries of history behind every corner in the Old town, so if you were enchanted with the narrow roads, medieval palaces, gothic architecture and roman ruins, I will happily take you on the route encompassing all three Old Town neighbourhoods - El Raval, Gótico and Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera
Barcelona Food Markets
The essential part of the Barcelona experience is the local food. Do not only stay in la Boquería Market. Even though its the oldest and prettiest, it became overcrowded and overpriced. Why not exploring the other markets where you get to eat like a local (with local prices too). Every market has its own spirit and its own charm. Happy to take you on a market tour to dive into all the foods that you just have to try!
Parks and Views
What a better way to relax in between shopping and all the sightseeing then escaping to a little oasis in the nature. In the case of Barcelona, parks are still full of history and even though they are not very big, you will enjoy some of the most beautiful views and sunsets. The most breathtaking sunset will be from the highest point in the Tibidabo park, or you might want to see the sunset from most 'hip' spot to get a drink with people in the 'El Carmel' bunkers or you want to enjoy the peaceful moment while rowing the boat in the Ciudadella park.
Day Trips
Here you'll find the overview of day trips in an order from 'must-do' first. From the mindblowing mountains and historic complex of Montserrat through the whimsical world of Salvador Dalís museum in Figueras, historical cities of Vic, Tarragona, Girona all the way to breathtaking nature and villages in Costa Brava. Happy to arrange a private tour to any of these places to explore the magic of Catalunya beyond Barcelona.
