    Amazing Cooking Experience
    The experience was great and we truly enjoyed the chef! The trip to the market was also great. I enjoyed getting to meet other people as well. Definitely recommend this class!

    Great food/drink tour
    Very educated guide with a bunch of fun options. I wish we knew more about where we were headed next each time, but the food and drink choices were great.

    Fantastic intro to Barcelona
    Our guide, Sophie was wonderful!!!! This was such an enjoyable evening for your first night in Barcelona. The selection of tapas was wonderful and the variety of drinks was very good. We went to four very different locations, all which showcased the offerings of Barcelona. Sophie was so kind and helpful with her information and gave us a great overview of many different locations in the city. It was a great night

    If your tour guide is Juan Carlos you’ll be disappointed
    My husband and I bought this tour thinking it would be fun and to try local tapas. The tour was a whole lot of waiting around, no history of the area while walking around and a very uncomfortable evening. Juan Carlos kept looking at his watch to see if it was time to head to the next place. It was completely boring. The kicker was his crude jokes throughout the evening, as well as setting a cup down for tips at the end. His words were “ I don’t need reviews, I’m already rated a 5”. We had so many good tours in Barcelona. This was not one of them!

    Tapas and wine and history in Barcelona
    Tour guide was enthusiast and knowable. Got to sample lots of dishes and wines. All first rate! Especially liked the historical insight gained of places we visited. At the end the guide very helpful explaining clearly a route we wished to take and giving us shopping tips. Good job.

    Weak tour guide
    Was not impressed with our tour guide. She was from South America and did not have a strong background of country/city. She did not sit with us for our tapas to tell us more background info. Instead she spent her time recruiting others for future tours. Tapas just ok

    A wonderful experience
    Sophie was a delightful guide. We had lots of different food, more like full meals. Everyone got along so well that at the last stop the party continued on with many liters of sangria. A wonderful experience

    Good Tour! ....but not Great.
    This tour was very good, but not great. We had sangria and a choice of red or white wine at different locations on the tour, but it is not a wine tasting tour. The tapas were great per usual in Barcelona, and there was plenty of variety with them. Overall, the tour and the guide were excellent and made this worth the money. One star deduction from my perspective, expecting that we would learn a little more about Spanish wine along the way as well as the tapas few locations along the way.

    Well priced. Informative guide. Value for money. So much to see and do. One of our highlights in Barcelona. We were pleasantly surprised by the tour.

I would love to give a review of this activity. Unfortunately, I was emailed on the day to say the tour had been cancelled as the guide was sick. I may be accused of being a cynic, as it is January and as this was the only ghost tour operating in Barca at the moment, I believe it was probably cancelled due to low numbers. Anyway, we found another ghost quest which was online, through an app that only cost €7.99 for the 3 of us. It was brilliant and we had a ball so it all worked out. This company refunded me in full.

Had a great time on the tour. Small group and Daniela was energetic, informative, and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend for anyone who likes anything that goes bump in the night but still wants to learn more about Barcelona!

This tour was one of the top highlights of our stay in Barcelona! Joe was funny and engaging, and the stories really helped us appreciate the history of the area. Wish we could do a tour like this in every city we visit. We had previously booked the tour and Joe nicely reached out and suggested we come for an earlier booking since the tour can be a bit awkward with only two people. We were so glad we went with a group (about 9 people total) - the comments and banter had us laughing the whole time.

I didn’t know what to expect from this tour so I was pleasantly surprised! Our guide (Mireia, not sure about the spelling!) was fantastic, her story telling skills, enthusiasm and knowledge were impressive. The stories were told beautifully so it keeps you engaged, a great balance between historical facts and stories. The time went by fast and I feel like I learned a good deal about some of the history of Barcelona, without even realising. I can’t recommend this tour enough!

This was such a fun tour! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and delivered it in such an entertaining way. He gave us so much interesting information and kept us laughing. I highly recommend this tour to learn more about Barcelona’s ghosts and legends combined with many interesting facts!

I feel so sorry, but I was pretty disappointed. As it is being sold as 'ghosts and legends' tour.. It had nothing to do with that. There really was nothing ghostly or any spooky or mythic legend involved. Some general historic information was shared, but also not really into deep. I liked the effort of the guide, but (this time?) it really was not what could be expected of a tour promoted like this.

Owen was a fantastic guide. We booked this as a unique way to view the city around us instead of the usual walking tours. The tour was full of interesting information about the dark past of parts of Barcelona.

Mariah was funny, engaging, knowledgeable and patient, and the entire trip was a delight, even when the content and context was profoundly disturbing. An illuminating glimpse into the dark past of the Gothic Quarter and Spanish/ Catalunyan history. I would take the tour again with Mariah, especially to share the experience with friends.

Booked as a trip during the half-term holidays. Fell on Halloween so decided a tour of the dark and grizzly past of Barcelona would be good fun, and it did not disappoint! Owen was a fantastic guide; detailed in stories, entertaining, funny, and kept the group moving around the Barri Gòtic. Would thoroughly recommend this walking tour as a great way to find the squares and eateries around the old town, as well as learning a bit of horrible history.

Mariah was everything you would want in a tour guide. Great personality, extremely knowledgeable and a natural story teller. She captivated her audience, including my teenage boys (that’s a miracle in itself 🤣) and brought the dark side of Barcelona out to play for the evening. Best ghost tour we have done (Mariah you beat Brighton! Hands Down!) I will never forget the Jew Wall. That will stay with me forever.
Do not hesitate. Book this tour.
