About Tour Guide Agustina V.

Hola!

Welcome to Barcelona! I'm Agustina and I'd love to be your guide, but first let me tell you a bit about who am I and what we're going to be discovering together :)

I was born in Argentina, studied Art History, and as soon as I finished my studies I wanted to travel the world and see new places. 12 years later, I'm still on this side of the Ocean, 9 of which I've been working as a professional tour guide in Ireland, Portugal, and Barcelona!

When I arrived in Barcelona, I fell in love with this city, because it's a place that HAS IT ALL.

Amazing architecture, very interesting history, very rich in culture, great weather, fantastic cuisine and coastline, what else could you ask for?

All of these things that I really love about Barcelona are what I'd love to showcase to you, so if I do a good job. . . you'll finish my tour liking this city as much as I do. Mission accomplished!

The things I love the most in life are to keep discovering new things, learning, growing, and getting to share them with others. I LOVE TELLING STORIES and I consider myself so fortunate to match my two biggest passions through my job: Art History and Storytelling!

Come and join me on a tour, let me show you why Barcelona is so unique, a place that has many spots that need to be revealed, many secrets to be told, and many stories you'll never forget. Let me guide you through your journey :)
