Wonderfully entertaining Gaudi tour! - Sebastian was an amazing guide—warm, friendly, funny. He seemed to have a bottomless source of facts, pictures, and stories about Barcelona and its rich history and beautiful architecture that really brought it all to life for my daughter and myself. And when we find our way back here, we certainly hope to work with him again! Do not miss!

We got Engaged at the Sagrada Familia - Ellie was absolutely wonderful in planning our private outside tour of the Basilica de la Sagrada Familia and my plan to propose to my, now fiancé. At the appropriate time and place I gave her my phone to video and take pictures. It was absolutely perfect and she was a wonderful photographer for us! The tour and information provided were top notch and made our interior visit afterwards absolutely enjoyable. I cannot recommend Ellie more highly for great communication, outstanding information and a no rush experience that absolutely made my additional request a memory we will always treasure.

Thank you Araya! - We really enjoyed our tour with Araya. The tour covered Thailand's rich history and culture, as well as some customs and tips for the subway system, ordering food, nightlife, and much more. She answered our questions, and was very funny and nice throughout. I would absolutely recommend her as a tour guide for anyone visiting Bangkok for the first time. Thank you Araya!

Sagrada Familia with Ellie of WithLocals - Ellie was great. She walked us around the exterior of the basilica and explained the significance of the structures. She provided us with historical context about Gaudi and subsequent architects. Lastly, she told us what to look for once we went into the church. By the way, tickets were sold out when we tried to get them but she was able to find tickets through a third party for us. I highly recommend her tour.

With Locals Private Walk - We (4 adults) spent the morning with Ellie. She did an excellent job of explaining the history of Gaudi to us and showing us the many examples of his work. We also went to Park Guell. The best part was her knowledge of the exterior of the Sagurda Familia! She really made the entire project make sense to all of us. Would definitely use her again and highly recommend her.

Amazing Tour Guide! - Pili is not only experienced, but she also possesses a wealth of information and knows every corner of Barcelona. She took the time to explain the rich history of the city as we leisurely strolled around, covering practically every part of it. Having lived there, Pili shared her personal experiences, making the tours of various churches and historical sites absolutely epic. Her passion and deep understanding of Barcelona brought the city's stories to life in a truly engaging manner. Every step of the tour was infused with her unique perspective and insightful commentary. From the intricate details of the Gothic Quarter to the grandeur of Sagrada Familia, Pili's guidance made each site memorable. I cannot wait to return to Barcelona and have Pili as our guide once again. Her tours are undoubtedly 100% worth it. For anyone visiting Barcelona, I highly recommend experiencing the city through Pili's expert eyes. She truly makes the exploration unforgettable.

Gaudi through the eyes of an artist! - Pili was a wonderful guide! Expect her knowledge to bring Gaudi alive--light and color and form! She conveys more than facts and figures--we loved our day with her!

Quite the Expert on Guadi - Laura was a wonderful guide. She came prepared with illustrations on her phone to explain all the elements of design and thoughts of expression of the Guadi buildings. She showed us various neighborhoods and some really cool local markets off the beaten path. An excellent experience all around.

Fantastic tour guide! - We visited Barcelona in September and from the moment we met Pilar we were put at ease and knew we were in good hands. We chose to extend our tour to Park Guell followed by lunch and tour outside Sagrada Familia and inside. Being an artist myself, it was a pleasure to share insights, and get a thorough understanding of Gaudis motivations, intentions and genius. The following day we visited The Salvador Dali museum in Figueres, (highly recommend!) followed by lunch on the Costa brava beachfront topped off with a visit to Pilars glass studio where we were able to get a thorough understanding of her work and techniques. The crowning glory are the pieces that she designed and installed expertly at the Sagrada Familia. All in all we were treated to two fantastic days we will never forget. Thank you, Pilar!
