Overview
Don't leave Barcelona without exploring its beautiful Gothic Quarter! On this fantastic walking tour, your local guide will lead you around the best sights in the district and give a little history along the way.
The Gothic Quarter is one of the oldest parts of the city and you will learn how it was founded, its evolution over the years and the history of its most illustrious characters. You'll also be taken to see the remains of the ancient city wall that dates from Roman times, with Medieval additions.
What's more, you'll also learn about important figures in the history of the city such as St. Roque and 'Wilfredo the Hairy', and you'll hear about the flag of Catalonia and how its current design came about.
At the end of your tour, your guide will lead you to a lovely traditional bar where you can enjoy a selection of pintxos - savory snacks consisting of a small tower of bread, cheeses, meats, pickles and more, typically accompanied by something to drink. Pintxos come in a wide variety and are held together with a small toothpick - known as the 'spike' or 'pinch' - which is where the word 'pintxo' comes from.
Make sure to get some tips from your local guide on how to spend the rest of your trip in Barcelona!

Not quite as advertised
Linda ·First of all we were looking for that guide by the fountain that was supposed to have a sign saying amigo tours. She didn’t have a sign and we had to go up and ask her if this was the tour and she said yes. I told her I was looking for somebody holding the amigos tour sign and she said she had a blue umbrella in amigos blue. There is no writing on the umbrella. I would mention the woman’s name however she never  introduced herself to us.  on the tour the information she gave us was hard to understand due to her thick accent and quiet, speaking voice. We ended the tour at the top restaurant where we were given two small bowls of potatoes with sauce on them to split between seven people. She left quickly after dropping us at the restaurant. I would not  recommend this tour at least not with this guide. The topas tasting was not as  described in the tour description. 
Tapa? Tasting
Abrahams ·Guide was great. Tour was interesting. Not much tasting - just one tapa (potatoes) at the end.
Gothic Tour
Trang ·We had Enrique as our tour guide. He was excellant, imformative and very nice. Made the tour felt like it was not long enough because we were having such a great time.
Informative but questionable
Nate ·The guide was nice, the info was good, but it's a bit questionable if it really needs to be done in 2 languages at the same time and the tapas portion was a bit too little
Worth doing
Noela ·Laura was very knowledgeable and sweet. We learned a lot and really enjoyed it!
Above and beyond a great tour
Martha was the best guide we’ve had this whole trip! SHe was so knowledgeable. Hurt with impeccable.
