Won’t you come with us for the rest of our trip? It’s only ten more days!
☺☺☺☺☺ We visited Barcelona twice and had two fabulous experiences touring with Marta. She's articulate, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Her grasp of history, architecture/art and an ability to tailor the tour to the client's needs all make Marta a great find in a spectacular city...

☺☺☺☺☺ We have talked about you several times and how our tour experience with you was one of the best investments and pleasant experiences during our trip to Europe. Not only did we come away with more knowledge of your beautiful city of Barcelona, but your guidance and personal warmth made it so very special for all four of us. We would highly recommend that anyone we know book with you personally, to see the highlights of the city from such a professional tour guide. It certainly staved off the confusion usually felt by tourists when they enter a city they are visiting for the first time, wondering, "Where do I start?" We could never have seen all the sights on our own that you incorporated in a few short hours, nor have been able to crunch in with a big crowd of tourists to hear everything a guide of a large group has to say. - Not to mention having been able to field all of our questions! Also, your command of the English language is wonderful. Thank you for a terrific tour!

☺☺☺☺☺ My husband and I are frequent business visitors to Spain. While he has spent time in Barcelona, I had not, so we arrived in October of 2003 for a few days of just being "tourists." My first real day in Barcelona was spent with Marta, our guide and Pierre, our driver. What a wonderful day that was. Marta is a Barcelona native and we really saw the city! We saw it as tourists but also through her eyes and with her knowledge and understanding. Our primary stops included the Sagrada Familia, the La Pedrera, the Park Guell, a search for Botero's fabulous cat sculpture (we found it!) and an entire collage of color, sculptures, buildings, plazas and sights in between. We let our driver go and Marta, my husband and I ended with a wonderful lunch at the Casa Calvet, another Gaudi building that now serves as a delightful restaurant. Our adventure was complete when our planned taxi ride back to the Ritz Carleton Hotel Arts was abandoned due to the closure of streets for a bicycle race. Marta took us on the metro and gave us yet another look at Barcelona. Our incredible view from our hotel window of Barcelona was almost as perfect an overview of the city as our day with Marta. She made it easy to fall in love with this beautiful city.

☺☺☺☺☺ What a terrific city seen through the eyes of a terrific guide. We just loved Barcelona! The architecture alone was something to remember. We experienced your beautiful city by doing some of the following: touring Gaudi's cathedral, apartment, park, experiencing the local tapas restaurants, going shopping on Las Ramblas. Every moment was sheer enjoyment. Our excursions to Montserrat, Cordoniu (30k of cava tunnels), Figueres and Girona were also fascinating and memorable.
What can we say, but that we look forward to returning one day and enjoying again the friendliness and warmth of a very special city.
