Art Tours in Barcelona Review
“I loved this tour! Jimi our guide was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and his passion for art shone through. Having lived in the city for two years I had hardly taken any tours. So it was an eye-opener to learn about the history of the streets and monuments that I had passed several times whilst wandering around the city, and didn't realise were of such significance. There is such a rich Barcelona art history in the city and thanks to the tour I have developed a deeper interest in Picasso and Dali artwork. I recommend this to anyone wanting to learn more about the lives of these two artists and their influences in the city.” – Lisa Imogen Eldridge
