★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 177 reviews · 5.5 hours · from $87

Spend 5.5 hours with an English- or Spanish-speaking guide exploring La Rambla, Boqueria Market, Raval, Montjuïc Castle, and the city’s cable car. Guides such as Katty, Pepa, Montse, Miguel, and Edu bring local stories to a small-group route that ends with tapas and a drink.

“The guide was fantastic ! Peppa, was so informative and really cared about giving us the best experience she could. The only improvement is to take off the magical fountain until they get it restarted. I was disappointed not to see that, but I still enjoyed the experience of walking through the market and riding the metro and the cable car and the visit to the castle. Ending at the restaurant was perfect. And it was a small group which made it more personal and we were able to get to know each other along the way! A perfect excursion”
