Curiosity has taken me across borders, and life has gifted me the chance to live and be a tour guide in five different countries around Europe. Along the way, I’ve fallen in love with history, food, culture, and the arts — and above all, with the stories behind every place and person. I’m passionate about connecting with people from all walks of life and discovering something new every day. I can’t wait to share meaningful, off-the-beaten-path experiences with fellow travelers who are just as curious as I am.

Tour description

Dare to Discover the Dark Side of Barcelona?

As night falls and shadows creep across the Gothic Quarter, join us for a thrilling free evening ghost tour that dives deep into the haunted heart of Barcelona. This isn’t your average history walk—it’s a journey into the spine-chilling, the mysterious, and the downright bizarre.

We’ll meet just off La Rambla, where your local storyteller will set the scene… and maybe even summon a few spirits. From there, we’ll twist and turn through narrow medieval alleyways, long believed to be home to restless souls, cursed lovers, and tormented villains.

⚰️ Hear the tragic tale of the bride who never made it to the altar…

🕯️ Stand in the very spot where a shadowy figure is said to whisper your name…

🩸 Discover the blood-soaked secrets the guidebooks leave out.

With each step, the city reveals another layer of its dark past—and whether you’re a believer or a skeptic, you’ll never see Barcelona the same way again.

We’ll end near the looming Barcelona Cathedral—lit up like something out of a Gothic novel. The perfect place for… endings.
