These are must see in Barcelona. Amazing view, interesting history, very tasty patata Tapas, and very helpful and knowledgeable guide Kathy made this tour memorable.

Catty our guide was amazing. She guided us through the city, showing it to us through a unique perspective. The views from the cable car and Montjuc Castle were breathtaking and we will be able to remember them in the future thanks to Catty who offered to take photos of us to immortalize these splendid moments!

Montse was an amazing guide with so much passion and knowledge for the sites we visited today. The views of Barcelona from Montjuic Castle were beautiful and the sunset was spectacular. We enjoyed some local Tapas specialities and good conversation!

This tour was not as described at all! Tour company was not very good at communication. Prior to booking, I asked about the tour times- Private tour was at 3:30, small group at 5:30. I wanted the small group, but was worried about the darkness at that time for views as the amount of time for tour states 5.5 hours. Instead of answering the question, they simply responded with the fact that the fountain is closed and they don't offer that tour- yet I was able to book the tour and it is on both their home site and trip advisor. We decided to go with 5:30 (knowing that it did not include the fountain show) since I was hoping to fit in Palau Guell earlier, and the only way I could get into Montjuic was if I did this tour with the "exclusive" visit open only to our group- Montjuic clearly states it sells last ticket at 5:30. THE DAY BEFORE, they contacted us that the time of the tour changed to 3:30 due to Montjuic winter hours. I knew the hours because it is on the castle's site year round! We decided to do the tour anyway, since we would at least see the outside of Palau Guell on the tour. Wrong. We DID NOT go by Palau Guell, nor the cat statue. We only looked at the market entrance from across the street because the other family on the tour asked about it. The Montjuic Castle is NOT exclusive, we did NOT go in the dungeons, we did NOT go in the tower. Instead we started with a short walk around the cathedral (all of which we saw on another tour, and picked this tour because it was supposedly going to different sights). We actually did get to ride in the funicular, and cable car. That was the best part of the tour- but we could have done that on our own. We had a very short abbreviated walk around the castle- not in dungeon, nor in tower. Then, our guide took us to tapas at what reminded me of a food truck in the US. Tapas included potato chips, Nachos with guac, and some sandwiches. Not very good. We ate outside, then continued to walk past the fountain, and then guide was unhelpful in helping us find our way back- we were over a 1/2 hour walk from the start point. Fortunately, it was only 6:30, because the 5 1/2 hour tour that didn't do half of what it states was only 3 hours!!! DO NOT USE THIS TOUR COMPANY, DO NOT DO THIS TOUR!!

Palau is one of the best tour guides we’ve had. She was very kind, polite, professional and caring. She took her time explaining everything and also gave us time to explore a little on our own. We made our way from a beautiful market, to the cable car then to the castle. Then to top of it she bought us snacks. Explained in details the rich history of the city as well. Even recommend places for us to visit and check out, and I definitely recommend to anyone visiting Barcelona for the first time to book with. Amazing time and I’m thankful for the effort she put! Thank you for an amazing experience we won’t forget !

Have never left a tour early until this experience. Tour guide was chaotic and poorly prepared for excursion. Guide would pick awkward places to speak about areas of interest and would quite often go onto to unrelated tangents. Guide had poor time management and was unaware of changes in schedule. We made it to the cable car with 10 minutes to spare prior to closing and therefore could not make the return trip. Same was true for the castle. We had limited time again because it was closing. Although we were supposed to continue with tapas, we had little faith or desire to stay with the guide and had to find our own way off of Montjuic, no easy feat when traveling with a senior citizen.

I spent a beautiful afternoon together with a guide who made the time pass too quickly and with a success regarding the coverage of at least 2 presentation languages. The information received was interesting and culminated with a small culinary experience and a bit of multicultural socializing. Great job Pepa!

Very good but things you should know: 1. There is a cafe on the walk up to the first stop, it is reasonably priced and has a toilet (although it's a bit rough and ready). 2. There are no toilets anywhere else except in the castle (which you have to pay for). 3. The castle is worth the money (not just for the toilet). 4. There is a very good cafe in the castle and a separate ice cream stall, both good and reasonably priced given that we are a captive audience. 5. The fountains were not running due to drought conditions. 6. The architectural diagrams and history are fascinating It's nice being away from the bustle of Barcelona but very very hot during the day!

Pepa was such an excellent guide! She really made my sons and I so comfortable, and made an effort to connect with each of our interests. We enjoyed the St. Josef’s Market, a walk thru The Raval, the Finicular, and Montjuic Castle. It gave us great views of all angles of Barcelona and was a perfect end to our week-long trip. And the wine and tapas at the end were a wonderful last supper.

It was a good , real experience of Barcelona with saubways, local people, different main sites and topaz with sangria at the end. Cathy was original and in love with her city and tried to share the love with us. Unfortunately the fountains did not work, still worth to do this trip!

We truly enjoyed this eye-opening tour and appreciated the safety provided in the busy market. The tapas tasting was a good bonding time for the tour members who came from all over the world.

This was an amazing tour! Daniela was a great guide. She is very knowledgeable and make the tour super interesting, showing us spots and telling us stories about Barcelona that otherwise we wouldn’t have known of. Montjuïc is truly a beautiful place to visit and even though we were unable to see the fountain working, the tour was more than we were expecting. The tapas at the end were amazing!

No water by order when we were there but didn't spoil the fun. Good tour, good guide and a thoroughly good day. Hope they have some rain and allow public water turn on when you're there - enjoy

Our guide was very informative. He ensured that everyone was included in the discussions and was comfortable (it was a long tour and included accessing buses, cable cars etc).
