If you only have one day to do a tour in Barcelona, this one is outstanding! It felt like we saw so many of the well-known attractions and our guide (Alberto) was wonderful. He gave us his phone number at the end of the tour, and told us to feel free to text him anytime we want for recommendations, restaurants, or anything else we may be curious about. We highly recommend asking for Alberto.
