David was excellent in maximizing the time to see as many points of interest as possible and was very knowledgeable about the history of those places. The pick up was on time at the hotel.
We did not have this tour but were charged for the money. Tour time was at 11:00 a.m. Tour operator did not confirm our pick up time and point few days before the tour as per our request. We did not have driver’s phone number. On the day of the tour, we waited inside our hotel lobby from 10:45 a.m. for pick up. Driver did not arrive to hotel lobby to meet us. Driver made first contact by sms at 11:19 and wrote that he is waiting for us outside the hotel. We went out to meet him and he told us at 11:22 that as it is over 20 min of the tour schedule time, our tour is cancelled. We asked him to have the tour, even to make it shorther, but he didn’t agree. Viator did not gave us a refund as driver claimed that he waited us from 10:50 outside the hotel. Driver was lying because he made first contact only at 11:19. Very poor service! Not recommended to book tours from this company.

Alberto was delightful. Very knowledgeable. Customized our tour to our needs. Great energy. Very thorough.
Excellent choice for short visits...Christian took us to the most emblematic places and gave us a brief guide to everything...we stopped at the places we were most interested in...thank you very much Cristian
Positives: we got to see several spots in the City. He had us pick where. He was also very nice. Negatives: Guide/Driver was difficult to understand at all and he did not provide any information about the places that we visited. Just drove us to spots in City and we took a few pictures and had a few minutes to walk around before getting back in Taxi(would have preferred to not be in Taxi)

We chose this tour as we had very limited time and a few family members were not able to walk long distances. An excellent choice, good car, perfect timing and a great guide who even helped push the wheelchair every now and again !

This is a great opportunity to get a quick glance at Barcelona from the convenience of a car ride instead of a bus. Our driver pick us up from the port and safely drove us on our tour. We would have been driven to our hotel, however, we arrived the day of the protests so we had to walk the last three blocks. The driver really felt bad but nothing could be done as the streets were closed. Highly recommended.
We thank you for your kind words! We do hope you won't hesitate to use our services again in any of our Welcome destinations! In the meantime, allow us to wish you many more happy adventures! We wish you all the best,
Driver was timely in meeting our cruise ship, very helpful with luggage for 4, was very familiar with the Highlights most want to see, helped with photo ops, plus altered his usual route to take us by some other places we wanted to see before dropping us off at our hotel.
We are delighted to hear that you had an excellent experience with your Welcome driver! We hope to see you again soon in one of our other 47 destinations!
