Barcelona mini day trip - Highly recommend a tour with Albert. He is very knowledgeable and responds quickly. Unfortunately we had limited time due to our travel plans but Albert made the most of our experiences at Park Guell and Sagrada Familia. Wish we had more time to spend but definitely planning a return trip in the future and will enlist his services again!

Visiting a world-class city with a world-class guide. - We will never forget this experience. Albert enriched our short visit to Barcelona in ways that we could not have imagined. We communicated to him what we wanted to experience as well as our time limitations. He over-delivered in every way.
It was VIP door-to-door service all the way. From our initial encounter at the train station to our bittersweet goodbye at La Sagrada Familia Albert took care of every detail. It is amazing to us how we were able to create so many lifetime memories in 6 hours!
Albert is a professional in every way and a man who we now consider a friend.
Do yourself a favor and let Albert show you Barcelona!

Nunca olvidaremos esta experiencia. Albert enriqueció nuestra corta visita a Barcelona de una manera que no podríamos haber imaginado. Le comunicamos lo que queríamos experimentar, así como nuestras limitaciones de tiempo. Albert excedió nuestras expectativas en todos los sentidos.
Fue un servicio VIP puerta-a-puerta en todo momento. Desde nuestro primer encuentro en la estación de tren hasta nuestra agridulce despedida en La Sagrada Familia, Albert cuidó cada detalle. ¡Es increíble para nosotros cómo pudimos crear tantos recuerdos para toda la vida en 6 horas!
Albert es un profesional en todos los sentidos y un hombre al que ahora consideramos un amigo.
¡Hazte un favor y deja que Albert te enseñe Barcelona!

A delicious bite of Barcelona - We had a marvelous morning with Albert on Barcelona! He is passionate and informative about his city! He was waiting for us when we disembarked as we had scheduled. For four (4) hours he took us to the most interesting sights in the city, ending with Sagrada Familia. What a masterpiece!
This tour was like a delicious appetizer... it was just the taste that makes us want to come back for more!
Albert was perfect!!

Great Introduction to Barcelona! - If you're visiting Barcelona, Albert's tour is a must-do, especially if it's your first time in the city. After picking us up very promptly at the tour start time, Albert took us to many of the sights and gave us lots of great stories and information on them. We covered Casa Batllo, Park Guell and many others. We drove by lots of great viewpoints to photograph Barcelona from various angles. We like to walk a lot, so Albert customized the tour for us by using some of our time together to walk through the Old Town. We went to a great tapas bar for lunch, and also got some recommendations for places to go during our remaining time in Barcelona.
Albert is the perfect mix of professional, patient, informative, and fun. We highly recommend his tour.

Private tour well worth it!!!! - Albert was AMAZING!!!! We arranged for an airport pickup prior to start of our tour. He was extremely prompt. Throughout the tour he was very knowledgeable on the history of the city. He truly loves what he does and it shows. He was never rushed and gave us valuable information that we were very appreciative. Highly recommend booking with him.

Barcelona views with an elite guide! Highly recommend for a unique experience. - Exactly what we were looking for! My dad just had back surgery and I needed a tour that showcased the city without a lot of walking. The park was a bit of a hike but other than that he did great. Albert was full of knowledge and did a wonderful job of hitting the highlights of Barcelona. The views were amazing. We stopped for tapas and sangria, this I would highly recommend. Thanks, Albert! 5*

Private Tour Accomodation - Albert is a wonderful tour guide. He communicated with me before I arrived in Spain which I appreciated. He told historic and interesting stories about the development of the city, the buildings, and surroundings. At my request he edited my tour to take me to the Gothic section of the city. He thoroughly answered my questions. In addition, he took pictures of me in front of various attractions. Thank you, Albert.

Overpaid for a taxi ride around town - I booked this because of the excellent reviews. The driver was 5 min late picking us up. He didn’t speak good English. He took us to one place, it was a look out of some sort. I asked what this is and he stated “beautiful”. We went to the second place with no discussion. When we asked him a question he didn't understand. We went to the second stop. A house. The line to get in was long. I didn’t know what it was and he really pushed us to go inside. We didn’t want to as the line was super long. We believe he wanted us to go inside so they would tell us what it was as he wasn’t able to. So we finally went and waited in line for a bit. After a few minutes we dropped out of line as this was a private tour and this isn’t something we wanted to do. Went back to the van and he was gone getting himself some food. There was a BIG sign that said no food or drink in the car. It was 95 degrees and we wanted water. We didn’t drink it because of the sign but he chowed down on a pastry of some sort He took us the third destination. La Sagrada Família. Dropped us off as he wasn’t able to park. He wasn’t able to tell us anything about it just said “go see. Beautiful”. It was beautiful. He then took us midtown and told us to go visit a market on our own. We had a time to meet. He never returned. Another guy was there at the meeting point (2:00) and said the driver had sent him to get us. Different car. No badge. No warning. I was reluctant get in but he did have our bags. He took us straight back to our ship. We were one hour early back. He dropped us off at the wrong location. Our trip was less than informative and cut short.
I e mailed the owner out of courtesy. Explained the above. He apologized stating he had a new guy doing a tour. I requested a partial refund as we got no tour. I learned zero about Barcelona. The “tour” was basically a taxi ride. I paid over $600 for it.
Owner replied, apologized, and said he would be happy to show us around Barcelona next visit for free. Not sure I will ever make it back. I explained that and again asked for a partial refund. He stopped replying.
This review is fair. We had a terrible experience and I don’t feel we got what is advertised.
