Rainy walkabout in Barcelona - It was raining very hard and my family grudgingly went to meet up with our guide Chrisa. It turned out that only my family showed up and had a sort of private tour. She was very pleasant , energetic and very knowledgeable. We were glad we came out in the rain for this tour.

Very interesting tour, highly recommended - A very interesting and informative tour, Xavi tells you things about the city the usual tours don't mention. If you are interested in history, architecture or want to understand how the city became what it is today, do yourself a favour and book this tour.
