Gracia Village Walking Tour

By Patrick Taggart
About
A stroll through Barcelona’s hidden gem. We´ll wander through the charming neighbourhood of Gracia. This hidden gem of sleepy, tree-lined streets and plazas, artists galleries, local artisanal shops, restaurants from ethnic cuisine to the local Spanish.. Yet, on our Gracia Private Tour you’ll not only see the bio markets, great bars offering live music but also see a lesser known picture of revolutions, insurrections, the birthplace of the local music style: Rumba Catalana and also the nun who could be in two places at once! A wonderful way to get to explore a lesser known area of the city.

    Fantastic introduction to Barcelona
    After reading MANY reviews, I decided that this would be our 1st tour in Barcelona when we arrived, and was I right! Patrick was on time, easy to communicate with and an all-around very hospitable and super friendly tour guide. His storytelling is engaging and brought to life the history of the Gothic Quarter & Barcelona. He introduced us to some local favorites along the way, and made us forget our jet lag because we were so interested in everything he was saying. Book this tour!

    Absolutely a must!!!!
    We did the Gaudi and Modernism tour with Patrick; it was simply fascinating! Native English speaking, full of life guide ,bring's a lot of fun and jokes in the whole tour. It was like a great rock concert, as we were going it just kept getting better and better! Patrick also helped us a lot giving extra tips how to use the public transportation sistem. He was very pasionate, you can see that he loves what he's doing. I highly recommend it!

    Wonderful Introduction to Barcelona
    Patrick was a wonderful guide. He made a good impression on my son, and he endeared himself to all of us very quickly. The tour was exactly what we wanted. We learned some history, and we saw many sites we would never have seen without him. He showed a genuine desire to enhance our appreciation of Barcelona, and he succeeded. We were delighted with his tour.

    Take this tour!
    We loved our Gothic Quarter tour with Patrick! He is very engaging and knowledgeable. The time flew by, and we learned a lot of Barcelona history from the Roman era, medieval ages, to the modern era. There is so much we would have just walked on by without noticing that we now appreciate it.

    10/10!!
    Patrick was amazing! This was the best tour I have taken when in Spain. He is very passionate about Gaudi and the architecture along the Passeig de Graçia, and that passion made me really excited about the information he was sharing as well. If you love history and architecture, this is definitely a tour you should book!

    Outstanding tour and guide!
    Patrick provided an amazing tour covering the great architecture of Barcelona. He has a true gift of giving a thorough and entertaining tour that will keep you fully engaged the entire time. Had we not taken the tour with him, we would have just been looking at beautiful architecture without knowing any of the symbolism, meaning, and history behind it all. Because of Patrick’s expertise on the subject, these amazing pieces of art were brought to life. In addition, he’s a down to earth, friendly guy that went above and beyond to help us get the right metro passes for our needs. It was great getting to spend a few hours with him. This tour is not to be missed!

    Engaging Storytelling
    We spent a week in Barcelona and went on five tours during our stay. Patrick's tour was by far our favorite tour! He is a gifted storyteller, vividly narrating Barcelona's history and providing interesting details about the city that other tour guides often miss.

We spent a wonderful morning on a private tour of the Gracia Village with Patrick. He tailored the tour to our experience (we had been a few of the places before, so he was able to go deeper for us), answered all of our questions, and was extremely knowledgeable. He is personable, a clear communicator, and generous with his time. We highly recommend him. If we had more time, we would take more of his tours!

Patrick was a wonderful guide. He shared interesting information that made the area come alive for us. And he took care to make sure we heard everything he said by facing us and speaking clearly and with enthsiasm.

Patrick is an excellent guide who is very knowledgeable as well as generous with his time. In addition to the formal tour, he provided us with a lot of information on Barcelona (e.g., tips on using the subway system) and on life in Spain.
