“Great tour!”
We had a private tour with Silvana as our guide. We spent half day in Montserrat (used a private van) and then a Gaudi-specific tour of several sites. She was so knowledgeable and engaging. She was very patient and did not rush us at all. We would definitely recommend hiring Silvana for any Barcelona-related tours.
