Itinerary
Get to know Plaça Reial and its Napoleonic architecture, frequented by artists, bohemians and travelers enjoying some rest in one of the many terraces of the square. This big, open space became an indispensable meeting point in the middle of the Gothic Quarter and its narrow streets. Furnished with the elegant fountain de Tres Gracias and beautiful lanterns designed by a very young Gaudí on his first public assignment. With its gigantic royal palm trees, you can’t miss this sparkling and graceful square of Barcelona Old Town.
Barcelona's greatest urban attraction. This stunning neighborhood has survived through the Middle Ages. Its long history will become tangible as you visit the Cathedral, Plaça Del Rei, Plaça Neri and many other important landmarks.

Traveler reviews
phenomenal experience with Montse on our Barcelona Private Sweet Tasting & Stories tour!
We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Montse on our Barcelona Private Sweet Tasting & Stories tour! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and so much fun to spend the morning with. Not only did we learn so much about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Barcelona, but we also got to try some of the most delicious sweet treats we’ve ever had. Montse truly went above and beyond to make the experience personal, engaging, and memorable for our whole family. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and that passion made the tour even more special. She made the Gothic Quarter come alive with stories and recommendations we never would have discovered on our own. This ended up being one of the highlights of our trip, and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Barcelona. Thank you, Montse, for such an amazing experience!

Sweet fun facts of Barcelona
Montse was very kind and very informative. Tailored the tour to our likings! Gave us options which was nice. Learned good fun facts of Spain. Was very good with my teenage boys! Thank you
A very personal experience.
This is a very personal trip, and our host Montse was excellent. A passionate Catalan who opened our eyes to lots of things.
Best sweet treats tour with Montse!
Our large group of six adults and six children had an absolutely fabulous tour with Montse. As a local she was very knowledgeable about the area, could make special reservations for our large group, and really knew the best places to go for the tour and in general. She kept the children engaged and even helped with accommodating a dairy allergy. We highly recommend touring with Montse!
