After living 5 years in Italy and two in Scotland, I'm back in my beloved Barcelona willing to do something that I enjoy and that I've already done in the past with my Worldwide friends: Walking through MY city, showing it, explaining it so you, like them, can enjoy and understand its beauty
Did you know that Barcelona was known as the Fire Rose?
... That the Bankruptcy concept has its origin in the exchange tables of the flourishing Medieval city?
Or what about buildings that still bear the scars of an earthquake that occurred in 1428?
This intimate tour is presented as the option for those who want to understand Barcelona while walking through the streets of its historic center. Together we will walk through more than 2000 years of history, from the Roman Barcino to the BCN of the 21st century, passing through the laborious Medieval Barcelona that soaks up the Gothic and the Revolutionary Rose of Fire of the late 19th century. We will discover little-known sites, we will see how certain places have changed their meanings over the centuries, we will let the scars on the walls tell us their history and imbue us with the beauty of their contrasts.
What will we see?
If you opt for a unique, quiet and fun experience with a native guide who knows, loves the city and wants to share its history, this is your tour.
Intersection Canuda Street with Sta Ana. I always wear dark glasses, I have dark hair tied up in a bun
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
