“Francisco was a great guide, delivering a lot of history about Barcelona and its food. We got to try many tapas plates in multiple locations, and were full by the end - the paella choices were really nice (meat and seafood options). The wine and vermouth was good, with several varieties of the former. Overall I would recommend this tour to others looking for a bit of food, drink and history.”

“Terrific guide, lots of food and wine. Fun people. Highly recommend to visitors to Barcelona. Don’t miss it.”
Gothic Quarter streets, Gaudí façades, Port Vell boat views, then a short helicopter hop for sky-high Barcelona views.
“Walking section of the tour we took in a few sights and interesting locations but was fairly standard. Taxi then to the heliport and after alot of waiting we took our flight which was great. We then missed our scduked boat tour but we're given an open ticket. The boat tour itself was rubbish. Not really a tour as such just a ride along the coast and port with no comms. Over all I would probably separate this out yourself as guide didn't join you on the boat or the helicopter which you could book separately and there are better walking and cycling tours of the city.”

“This was the best tour I have ever been on in my life. Our guide took us on an incredible journey of a 13-year-old Picasso until the time he joined the impressionist movement in France in his mid 20s. He explained in memorable detail Picasso’s relationship with his family and his friends, and how important they were making him into the artist that he became. It made me fall in love with Picasso and he will always be one of my favorite artists..”
