Reviews
Shane was a great embassador for catalan culture and the city of Barcelona! I learned so much about the culture and unique local dishes on the Side Streets Tapas & Wine Tour!
Wir kommen an Orte, die wir ohne Guide nicht gefunden hätten und essen verschiedene Spezialitäten. Es schmeckte sehr gut - allem voran die smørrebrød - und Mark, unser Guid, hat uns alle zusätzlich mit sympathischen Geschichten unterhalten.
John Luca was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable, he made the group feel very welcome and ensured everyone had a great time. Highly recommend.
