Our concept is simple: there is no set price. Instead, you tip your guide at the end of the tour whatever amount feels right to you. Typically, guests give between 15€ to 30€, depending on their satisfaction and budget.
Our freelance guides work exclusively based on the remuneration of the guests. As any free tour, at the end of the tour you will decide how much the tour was worth for you.
We grew up in this city and now share it with you. Years of experience have given us stories and insight you won’t find in any script or guidebook, helping visitors connect the dots between the old, the new, and the everyday life of Barcelona. Join us and see Barcelona the way locals live it!
