Although my specialty are private tours for small groups, occasionally I also give tours for larger groups. And spring is the time when many European and American kids visit Barcelona with their highschools. Most of the time they are only interested in visiting the main sites with me, but from time to time they wish me to take them to some place that is somehow related to the specialty they are studying.
Last month I took the teens of the MFR Hebergement (France) to the Wholesale Flower Market in Vilassar de Mar (Mercat de Flor i Planta) and helped translating the tour that we were given by their staff.
I had already been there, and I find it very interesting. First of all, we are shown a video about the market, its history and how it works. And after a row of questions made by the students, we get on a passarelle overlooking the market from where we can see the stalls and the sellers (access to the sale area is restricted to professionals). At the end of the visit, we were given a plant each.
