Gerard was amazing! It unexpectedly rained on the day so he adjusted the trip and went above and beyond! Car was very comfortable and he's extremely knowledgeable (can even speak 7 languages!). He took lovely photos for us throughout the trip and even wrote us a list of experiences we must do and places we must eat whilst in Barcelona (and sharing some we shouldn't). After the trip had ended he even said to not hesitate to message him if we needed help with anything else whilst we are in this city. Thanks Gerard for being the highlight of our trip!

This was the best money I've spent on a vacation in a very long time. Gerard, our tour guide and part owner of BCN Hidden Tours, was phenomenal and provided us with an amazing experience through the whole day. He was kind and knowledgeable which enhanced our experience greatly. Do this tour!
