Tamara was great, started with the beautiful cathedral, took us through the winding wonderful streets of the Gothic area. Had many great stories and knew her history of Spain and Barcelona. Easy to understand with a great personality. Made it great

Mariah was AMAZING! Very knowledgeable and was great at making history relatable. She answered a lot of questions and kept us on track. I loved the dark history as much as the fun stuff because that’s reality. It was fantastic. I loved that she also suggested things to do at the end; she was so friendly and generous. Highly recommend. (Side note: didn’t include pictures because that will ruin the surprise! There are many stops and I took lots of pictures!)
