The BEST Tapas and Art Tour

5.00In and Out Barcelona Tours was fantastic about checking in with us as our private tour day/time approached. Our very energetic and FUN tour guide, Montse, was knowledgeable and funny. She went out of her way to be flexible and personalized the tour for our family. We enjoyed sampling different tapas, wine, delicious cakes, and of course a couple bottles of Cava to take back to our hotel to enjoy during our vacation!
Great art and info

5.00Stephanie was an excellent guide and she knew her history of the area. We started a bit late, but that was due to my mother not turning on her WiFi to get messages. Stephanie timed the tour right, so we were not rushed when going to the Picasso museum. Thank you Stephanie.

5.00Montse was a great tour guide. She took us to places off the beaten path. Montse listened to what we were asking and tailored the tour to take us to see sights we were more interested in viewing. Took us to some great culinary locations. Would definitely recommend her as a guide. Loved her unique insight to the art scene of Barcelona.
