Well worth doing!

Our guide, Christina, was very knowledgeable and entertaining and showed us many parts of the city we never would have seen otherwise. Although we are English speaking and signed up for a Spanish speaking tour by mistake, Christina gave the tour in both languages for us so we could here the ghostly legends of Barcelona. I highly recommend this tour!

Great leadership when expectations are too high

We did a ghost tour of Barcelona on Friday night. Our guide was great, spoke fluent English and was very easy to understand. She made it very interesting and showed us places that we would not normally have found. Unfortunately, the stories weren't as scary as I hoped. I think I had too many expectations of leadership. But overall I was very happy! I would definitely recommend the tour to anyone looking for some scary stories.

Unfortunately, a total letdown. I would not even have liked to take this tour for free. My companion and I left after 45 minutes because it was just badly done. The first problem was the vocabulary of the guide, who had to ask us several times for English terms. In addition, he told everything in both English and Spanish. So there was no tension and everyone who spoke both languages had to listen to what was said twice. A shame about the money!
