Reviews

The tour was a great way to learn something about the history of Montjuïc and Barcelona. For instance, I was not aware of the emotionally charged and tragic past of the Montjuïc Castle until Maria gave us some background information. She also took us to some lovely places that I would probably have missed if I had explored Montjuïc on my own. I would definitely recommend this tour!

I loved the Montjuïc Walking Tour with Kal. The place itself is a must-see that doesn’t stop at the area at the top, around the castle but to other hidden gems that a tourist would never find by just looking at local attractions in Google.

Our tour of Montjuïc in Barcelona was an absolutely extraordinary experience, thanks to our exceptional tour guide, Eoghan. His in-depth knowledge of Barcelona's history and culture was truly impressive and added an entirely new dimension to our visit.

We really enjoyed this tour. Our guide Eoghan (a.k.a. Owen) is so knowledgeable, full of energy and personalities. He made the tour fascinating. We learnt many facts about Barcelona and Montjuic that you normally would not have learnt from travel books. I recommend taking this tour early in your stay to get a good grasp of the city. Highly recommended!
