It is the most charming neighborhood in Barcelona. There are old palaces, medieval churches, small squares and incredible stories everywhere.

Forget about google maps and don’t waste your time. Enjoy your vacation, and let me work for you.
Walking along the Ramblas or visiting the Boqueria Market is a must, and all tourist do. But with me, you can go further and see at what many people do not look. You will understand the true essence of the Gothic Quarter, the heart of Barcelona.
It is often surprising how such a small neighborhood is so full of stories and monuments: The Cathedral, the Roman wall, the Temple of Augustus, the Palau Reial Major, the Palau de la Generalitat, the Plaça Reial, the Jewish Call… The Gothic quarter is a labyrinth of narrow streets and delightful corners. In the same place, the Roman past, Medieval churches, and Modernist buildings are mixed.
The itinerary is made at your pace and according to your interests. There is so much to explain that the route can be adapted to almost any subject: architecture, history, cinema, literature, gastronomy, trade, or legends, for example. I’ll show you the places we, Barcelonians, go. Tapas bars, century-old stores, artisan workshops, art galleries, our customs, and traditions.
Don't miss the most characterful sights. The Gothic Quarter private tour is the best choice if you want to discover Barcelona's old town, the coolest places to eat tapas, buy artisan products in centuries-old shops, and enjoy the city like a local.
