Description
TOUR EIXAMPLE + PARAL.LEL / SANT ANTONI + SANTS, down with the walls!! Popular culture and local traditions in non-touristic Barcelona.
Have you already visited the Gothic Quarter + Born, Gaudí's Modernist houses on Passeig de Gràcia, the Mercat de La Boqueria on Les Rambles, Sagrada Familia and Park Güell, the Barceloneta beach, or Barça's Camp Nou stadium?
Congratulations super tourist!!! You've completed the wonderful top 10 and have more than a thousand amazing photos for your vacation album!!!! ... but you feel like something is still missing, right?
Do you want to feel the magic of Barcelona as if you were 100% local, do you want to discover the city that tourists don't usually visit and become an authentic Barcelonian?
If you're interested in folklore and local traditions, popular culture, the daily life of neighborhoods and their people, urbanism and social transformations, tensions between the Catalan bourgeoisie and the working class, their impact on municipal regulations affecting the city's architectural development, the conquest of social and labor rights for the people, discovering that Art is not only in museums but also in the streets and among the people, etc., then this is your tour.
TOUR EIXAMPLE- PARAL.LEL-POBLE SEC- SANT ANTONI: Down with the walls! The new Barcelona is born!
What happens when in the mid-late 19th century the walls are torn down, municipal aggregation decrees are signed, and Barcelona begins to grow? How is this urban development managed? Have you heard of the Cerdà Plan and its Eixample reform project? How do the new neighborhoods that completely transform the city in the 20th century come to be, leading to the modern, open, tolerant, supportive, cosmopolitan, international, and multicultural Barcelona of today?
Barcelona is ITS PEOPLE and its people are the neighborhood life, folklore, popular culture, and local traditions!
Let's happily sing the Barcelonian anthem of joy: FRIENDS FOR LIFE / AMICS PER SEMPRE! WE LOVE BCN!

Charlie Ruiz Tours... don't be a Guiri and feel the magic of enjoying Barcelona as a local!!!
Following the Top10 list of "you must do/visit" is way to easy but you will never get involved by people's energy. Do you really want to walk by through Barcelona streets and not leave the footprints of your heart in this amazing city?
Taking lots of pictures will help you get a nice album to show to your family and friends but that is the same as collecting nice images with no feelings or emotions. Yes indeed, you visited a new city and you can say "I was there" in the same way as if you sit and watch the film but jumping actively into the screen and becoming the main character of that movie is much more exciting.
Plus, there are hundreds of libraries and excellent History books to learn more about the city but I'm completely sure you're expecting much more right? You could even get over collapsed by lots of data and information that you could also read or find on Internet, Google and Wikipedia. But this is not what my tours are about.
Moreover, are you the type of person wanting to live new experiences and adding new emotions to your visits and trips?
Why should visiting Barcelona become just one more place to mark on an endless checklist of places to visit? Let's make a difference out of that!
Don't you prefer creating the best story of your life? How about being the Genious of the lamp and see how the holidays of your dreams come true?
Play, live, experience and feel the magic of enjoying BCN as a local with the best Tour guide you could ever imagine.
