Strongly recommend Gothic walking tour. - Highly recommend this tour. Our guide Anna was excellent (5 stars). Extremely knowledgeable and did a great job of conveying information to us. We saw so many more hidden gems than we would not have seen on our own. Pintxos experience was a bit of a disappointment though as nothing like described, just a basic single Tapa.

Dive deep into the Gothic Quarter - My partner and I recently attended the walking tour with Anne. It was an unusual turnout for the tour, as it was just my wife and I (normally 10+ people). We had a lovely experience. Anne took time to add additional things like "The Giants" to help make the trip memorable. We particularly liked that she kept things light and was very personable throughout the tour. The tour itself was great because it gave a lot of detail about the gothic tour. We had walked through on our own the previous day and missed lots of details. The Tapas stop at the end was also quiete nice.

Informative tour of Barcelona history - Anna was informative and helpful. She was a good guide who told us about the history of Barcelona from the present day to ancient Roman times. She showed us many hidden spots we would have never found on our own.

Fer un castell - Good tour taking you through the gothic quarters. We had the luck of seeing the traditional event referred to as “fer un castell”, to build a castle, where different teams make a human tower. Good guide. The pinxtos at the end were only so, so.
