Get away from the bustling city and spend some relaxing time on the iconic hill of Montjuïc - Barcelona´s green lung. The hill is full of fascinating historic sites from medieval times to the Olympic Games of 1992. Wherever we walk we will enjoy an amazing panoramic view and if we are lucky we can enjoy a drink in a hidden beer garden overlooking the Mediterranean! Montjuic hill is a wonderful area that should be included in any visit to Barcelona!

About Tour Guide Christian H.

I left Germany 23 years ago and have been living in Barcelona for 12. I am an experienced world traveller having visited more than 40 countries on all continents.


When coming to Barcelona I developed a passion for its architecture, the rich history & the many legends that can be found all over the city. Turning passion into a profession I became a tour guide and founded my own company specialising in off the beaten path tours and historic walking routes.


We offer private tours. This way we can guarantee a high level of intimacy. For us it is important that there is also time for personal conversations. We love to learn about the lives of our guests. Our mission is fulfilled when you got the feeling that you discovered Barcelona with a friend who happened to know a lot about the city.


Catch The Barcelona Feeling with me!

Great morning with Christian

The hidden streets of Barcelona was one of our trip highlights. Christian was able to show us places we'd never have found with the guide book. His knowledge and the ease with which he presented was great. It was a very interesting and fun walk around a part of the city which was fascinating. Would definitely recommend.

Debra H.

Thank you so much, Debra, for the wonderful morning. It was a pleasure sharing my passion for Barcelona with you and your husband. All the best wishes, Christian

Very Special Experience

This was the third and final tour we booked with Christian and I think it was my favorite. He took us through some quiet streets and pointed out little tapas places along the way that he recommended. We almost felt like locals by the time the tour ended. Christian is an excellent guide and we would do it all again!

Sue H.

THANK YOU, Sue, for having spent 1.5 days with me and that I could share my passion for this beautiful city with you during our time together. Glad you also enjoyed our third tour about the history of Barcelona covering 2000 years! All the best for you and Mike! Christian

Fantastic tour!

What a great morning spending time with Christian at some of Gaudi's buildings. Christian gave us so much insight into the design and meaning of the buildings that make them so much more interesting. He also highlighted buildings created by some other architects that were even more beautiful than some of Gaudi's. We ended up at the concert hall where we had a fantastic lunch.

Sue H.

Thank you, Sue! Glad you enjoyed the mix of sites that we visited and all the fascinating stories connected to them. All the best, Christian
