Adi was a wonderful tour guide. His background was education. He was knowledgeable which combined with his story telling made the tour both informative and fun. We highly recommend Adi.
Adi was an amazing guide. He was full of historical information and provided an excellent tour! He also has a great sense of humor!
We really enjoyed the tour and learned a lot both of the history of the Jewish populations but also of the history of Barcelona. We visited several sites that we had walked by and not even realized the historical significance. We highly recommend this tour.

Great tour of the Jewish quarter of Barcelona. We learned a lot and had a nice visit with our guide Adi.
Our family of five had an absolutely wonderful tour of Barcelona. Our guide, originally from Israel and living in Barcelona for the past 17 years, was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the city’s history and culture. What impressed us most was his ability to connect with everyone in our group. He kept our 9-year-old daughter interested and involved while also providing the depth, context, and historical perspective that the parents and grandparents thoroughly enjoyed. Finding a guide who can successfully engage ages 9 to 69 is no small feat, but he made it look effortless. His knowledge seemed endless, yet he presented everything in a way that was approachable, entertaining, and easy to understand. We learned far more than we expected and came away with a much deeper appreciation for Barcelona’s Jewish history. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and we could not have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for a guide who is intelligent, personable, engaging, and able to tailor the experience to a diverse group, we highly recommend him.
This was one of the very best tours we took on our trip. The guide was not only very knowledgeable, but had a great personality which made it very enjoyable. We saw some amazing historical Jewish sites, and learned a lot about the Jewish history in the region. I highly recommend this tour!!
Guide was excellent, well informed and had a planned itinerary of easy walking. He was easy to understand and conducted two way conversations with us, rather than talking AT us. We were engaged for the entire hours.
