Like a walk with friends

15 February 2024

Daniela took the three of us on a very private tour of the old town, followed by a visit to two Gaudi highlights. This was a very special treat at the start of our visit to Barcelona and immediately and charmingly gave us a comprehensive first impression of the city.

And since there were only four of us, we had time for a cup of coffee in a nice place that we would otherwise have certainly overlooked.

Overall very worthwhile, entertaining and informative. And again a big thank you to Daniela. I can only recommend everyone to try for a guided tour, even as a small group.
