• Our Barcelona Free Walking Tour is NOT a Scripted Tour. This Barcelona Free Walking Tour is not a scripted tour. All guides have many years of experience living in Barcelona and sharing our passion for our beloved city. Each tour is therefore unique and customized for that specific day taking into account things like the time of the year, the day of the week, the weather, the size of the group, the group background etc.
• It’s About Getting to Know and Understand Barcelona (and Catalonia). The tour is about you getting to know and understand Barcelona and the region of Catalonia. It will cover a lot but the tour is not about seeing as many highlights as possible, it is about insight.
• We are serious about responsible, sustainable and Eco-friendly tourism. Practically this, for example, means that we have small groups (~20), no loudspeakers and that we normally don’t go inside any buildings.
