    Best and most entertaining Barcelona lesson you can get...Olga was fabulous... inexhaustible source of information, and most of all Olga showed great flexibility in her presentations and use of stories best suited to the group. She paid personal attention to everyone in the group and happily answered many questions we had.

    This was an extremely good tour. An opportunity to hear about the history of Barcelona and to better appreciate the many influences that have shaped this city over the centuries. This was enhanced by a very knowledgeable guide who provided a detailed and interesting commentary. Large group sizes are generally an issue and although this was a large group it was managed well. Wandering through the winding lanes of the Gothic quarter revealed gems like the Roman ruins dating back 2,000 years that would have been missed if not on the tour. A worthwhile exercise.

    Excellent tour, our Guide was one of the best I ever had in all my travels, smart, well educated, rich in knowledge, knowing how to connect the past to the present with a high sense of humour too. Highly recommended for anyone who is interesting in the Roman and medieval history of Barcelona.
