El guía Pablo se detuvo 15 minutos en un lugar. Hubiese preferido seguir escuchando algo mas de la historia y de los lugares del barrio gótico Además entre parada y.parada iba hablando de fitbol y de otros temas Hubiese preferido que no apague el micrófono y.siga contando mas historias

Our guide, Pablo, stopped for 15 minutes at one spot. I would have preferred to hear more about the history and places in the Gothic Quarter. Also, between stops, he kept talking about soccer and other things. I would have preferred he hadn't turned off his microphone and had continued telling more stories.

Javier ha sido un guia excelente. Nos ha encantado todo lo que nos ha explicado, somos de Tarragona y a pesar de ello muchas cosas no las sabíamos. Me parece una actividad básica que hacer si vienes a visitar la ciudad de Barcelona, además de ayudar a situarte en ella, te da contexto histórico y te ayuda a verla diferente. Lo recomendaríamos 100% y volveremos para hacer otros. A pesar de que pueda parecer mucho rato se hace muy ameno y no es exigente a nivel físico. ¡Muchas gracias por todo! Translate this opinion into English.

Javier has been an excellent guide. We loved everything he explained to us; we are from Tarragona and despite that, there were many things we didn't know. I think it's a basic activity to do if you come to visit the city of Barcelona. Besides helping you get oriented, it gives you historical context and helps you see it differently. We would recommend it 100% and we will return to do more. Even though it may seem like a long time, it is very enjoyable and not physically demanding. Thank you very much for everything!

Pedro, es un excelente guía, Pero lastimosamente en la aplicación ponen diferentes nombres, pero son el mismo tour, me explico, el tour del barrio góticos nocturno es el mismo Barcelona, y asi no tiene gracia, pues en la noche hice el barrio gótico, y al dia siguiente hago el barcelona y resulta que es lo mismo, asi que muy mal, la verdad Translate this opinion into English.

Pedro is an excellent guide, but unfortunately, the app uses different names for the same tour. For example, the Gothic Quarter Night Tour is the same as the Barcelona tour, which is pointless. I do the Gothic Quarter tour at night, and the next day I do the Barcelona tour, and it turns out to be the same thing. It's really bad, to be honest. Opinion translated. Show original.

Experiencia buena. Pero he realizado free tours hace un par de años de otra empresa en esta ciudad , más enriquecedor y explicativo, y sobre todo sin “orientarme” a la hora de la aportación económica “voluntaria” que debo hacer. Aun así , la ruta ha sido buena y la valoración a nuestro guía es positiva Translate this opinion into English.

Good experience. However, I took free tours a couple of years ago with another company in this city, which were more enriching and informative, and above all, didn't "guide" me about the "voluntary" donation I was supposed to make. Even so, the tour was good and I rate our guide positively. Opinion translated. Show original.

En líneas generales muy bien, lo malo es que salimos con retraso por la gente que llegó tarde y se nos quedó el barrio judío sin ver. Cuando se pide que se llegue antes de la hora es por algo, al final los retrasos de algunos nos afectan al resto que nos hemos molestado en llegar a la hora. Translate this opinion into English.

Overall, it was very good, the downside is that we left late because of the people who arrived late and we missed seeing the Jewish quarter. When it is requested to arrive before the scheduled time, it is for a reason; in the end, the delays of a few affect the rest of us who made the effort to arrive on time. Opinion translated.

El sonido de los auriculares no era muy bueno, y el guia fue poco emotivo. Quien nos hizo el cobro de los auriculares tampoco fue muy cortes. Respecto de los sitios que visitamos, entiendo es una parte histórica muy importante, aunque todo esta super super sucio. En obras, ruidoso. No hubo lugares donde sentarse durante el recorrido. En este caso fue un 5 de 10.

The sound quality of the headphones wasn't very good, and the guide was rather unenthusiastic. The person who charged us for the headphones wasn't very polite either. Regarding the sites we visited, I understand it's a very important historical area, although everything is extremely dirty. It's under construction and noisy. There were no places to sit during the tour. In this case, it was a 5 out of 10.

We regret that the guide's attitude was not what we expected and that the headphone sound was unsatisfactory.

Juan es que no retengo muchos nombres. Un señor muy amable apasionado de la historia de Barcelona te cuentas datos de Barcelona que pocos sabrán, te recomienda lugares de visita en caso de estar cerrado y te hace que el tiempo pase volando en realidad. Muy ameno el tour, puedes preguntarle lo que sea. Translate this opinion into English.

Juan, I don't remember many names. A very kind gentleman, passionate about Barcelona's history, tells you facts about the city that few people know, recommends places to visit if they're closed, and makes the time fly by. The tour is very enjoyable; you can ask him anything. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy buen tour, con información interesante, duración adecuada y un guía atento. Como mejora, agradecería más puntualidad y unos auriculares más cómodos. Al ser free tour, creo que basta con explicar el sistema de aportaciones sin insistir sobre qué cantidades son “adecuadas”. En general, una experiencia muy positiva. Translate this opinion into English.

A very good tour, with interesting information, a suitable duration, and an attentive guide. As improvements, I would appreciate greater punctuality and more comfortable headphones. Since it's a free tour, I think it's sufficient to explain the donation system without dwelling on what amounts are "appropriate." Overall, a very positive experience. Opinion translated.

Excelente free tour de Martin!!! Como Argentina me sentí muy orgullosa que un compatriota estuviese a cargo del free tour pero no sólo por compartir nacionalidad si no por el excelente conociendo que trasmitió de una manera profesional y amena de la historia de Barcelona!! Sin duda lo mejor de nuestro viaje de Barcelona. Gracias Martin!!! Translate this opinion into English.

Martin's free tour was excellent! As an Argentinian, I felt very proud that a fellow countryman was leading the tour, not only because we share a nationality but also because of the excellent knowledge he conveyed about Barcelona's history in a professional and engaging way! Without a doubt, the best part of our trip to Barcelona. Thank you, Martin! Opinion translated. Show original.

I liked the tour really much. I hold a phd in early modern history focused on southeastern Eurole and wanted to know more about historical Barcelona. I was fascinated about the smaller details of history our guide Ricardo shared with us. The tour is around 2 hours but time really flies and there was so much to see and comment. Would recommend the tour to everyone to get to know roman, medieval and early modern Barcelona.

Nos encantó este free tour; sin duda, de todos los que hemos hecho, ¡nuestro favorito! Barcelona es espectacular y la ruta fue perfecta, pero gran parte del mérito es de David.

Si volvemos a Barcelona, repetiremos con él. ¡Enhorabuena, David! Translate this opinion into English.

He was always attentive to our questions and willing to recommend places, times, and prices. If we return to Barcelona, we'll definitely book with him again. Congratulations, David!

Nuestro guía fue Fran y es el mejor walking tour que he tomado en la vida. Fran ama lo que hace y se nota, nos guió a través del tiempo en la historia de Barcelona, el tour no solo fue interesante sino que también divertido, al final Fran nos compartió una guía de lugares para comer o tomar vino y hasta ahora he ido a 4 y son lugares preciosos. Muchísimas gracias Fran, por guías como él uno quiere seguir conociendo el mundo de esta manera. Translate this opinion into English.

Our guide was Fran, and it was the best walking tour I've ever taken. Fran loves what he does, and it shows. He guided us through the history of Barcelona, and the tour was not only interesting but also fun. At the end, Fran shared a guide to places to eat and drink wine, and so far I've been to four, and they're all wonderful. Thank you so much, Fran! It's guides like him that make you want to keep exploring the world this way. Opinion translated. Show original.
