We are very happy that we were featured on German television on July 29th, 2022 in the travel programme “Abenteuer leben täglich” (living adventures daily) on the 7th largest network, Kabel 1. We presented this experience and showed the authentic side of the historic center of Barcelona. See the video here.

” I had a great time with Christian. He was very personable, very well-read and just a great storyteller. More than that, he showed us places I would have never found myself and managed to zoom in on small details that stood out for him. He was very open to questions and took his time to answer them. I’d do the tour again next time I´m in the city.”

Experience neighbourhoods off the beaten track. See Barcelona through the eyes of a local. 

This guided walk through the historic center of Barcelona will let you discover more than the usual: buildings and squares you will not encounter so easily. Immerse with us into the captivating history of the city while strolling through the maze of little streets in El Born and the Gothic Quarter. Enjoy a drink in a magical little square where mostly locals go.

Learn about the most important Catalan legends. What’s the significance of the dragon that can be spotted all over the city? Why was a bat decisive in a battle? What´s the legend behind the Catalan flag? During this 2.5 hours walk we will make the connection from medieval Catalan history and legends to what inspired architects and motivates the independence movement.

If you love history brought to life by passionate storytellers and you want to enjoy the intimacy of a small group then this is your experience. After the walk you will discover details you have not noticed before. See the city with different eyes!
