What our guests say

Public city tours in Barcelona

Discover Barcelona in small groups

Experience Barcelona in a personal, relaxed way, without large tour groups. Our public city tours take place in small groups of no more than 12 or 15 participants. This leaves plenty of time for questions, interesting conversations and an individual experience.

Tours go ahead with as few as 2 or 4 bookings (depending on the tour). This makes our public tours the ideal alternative to a private city tour: significantly more affordable, but with the same high quality and personal attention.

All tours start at fixed times and at a designated meeting point. The end point is also clearly defined – so you can plan your stay in Barcelona perfectly.

Would you prefer to keep the tour to yourselves? All public tours can also be booked exclusively as private tours. You’ll experience the same route with your personal guide – with no other participants.

Latest reviews

Very detailed and interesting tour

2 March 2025

The tour could be connected with the Tapas tour. It was very detailed, informative and easy to follow. We learned many details about Sagrada Familia, Gaudí and all the small stories behind certain elements. A very good choice if you want to learn about the history of this impressive building.

Bastian

Wonderful guided tour

10 August 2024

We enjoyed an informative and engaging tour of La Sagrada Familia today.

Our host (Montserrat) was so engaging, well informed, passionate, approachable and friendly that she brought the history and ongoing development of LSF to life.

She also left us with additional points of interest to look at after the tour, before leaving the cathedral grounds.

Highly recommended. Moltes gràcies Montserrat.
