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!

Explore hidden streets of Barcelona with a friend
Experience neighbourhoods off the beaten path. See Barcelona through the eyes of a local. This guided walk in the historic center of Barcelona will let you discover more than the usual: buildings & squares you will not encounter easily. Immerse with us into the captivating history of the city while strolling through the maze of little streets in El Born & Gothic Quarter. Enjoy a drink in a magical square where mostly locals go.
Exclusive Champagne & Chocolate Experience
Spend a relaxed day with us away from the bustling city and discover Cava & Chocolate - a local tradition. We will visit picturesque Sant Sadurni just 45 minutes outside of Barcelona in the famous Penedès wine region. This quiet market town is not only home of the best Catalan chocolate maker but also the center of Cava production - the local sparkling wine made according to the same method and quality as French Champagne.
Gaudí and Barcelona Legends
Immerse with us into captivating legends from the past that can be seen everywhere in the city once you know them. During this 2-hours walk we will make the connection from medieval Catalan history & legends to what inspired Gaudí & other architects when designing their buildings along the boulevard of Passeig de Gracia. From street pavement to lamp posts – all have a story that we want to tell you! If you love history brought to life by a passionate storyteller then this is your experience.
Barcelona Panoramic Walking Tour
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!
Barcelona History & Food Experience
Discover Spanish food and Barcelona history. As we stroll through narrow back alleys and across historic squares, we will learn about Barcelona from Roman times to the medieval golden era. With three stops in distinct restaurants I will also show you the broad variety of tapas!

“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.

“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!

(4 reviews)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.
