My husband and I took this tour almost by mistake. We were looking for another tour company but were in the wrong location. We saw GoodBarcelona and decided to go on their Gothic Quarter tour. It was a wonderful decision. Our tour guide (female, but unfortunately don't recall her name) knew Barcelona's history extremely well and delivered it in an... More

We went on the free walking tour with Jim and had a fantastic time, really nice to get a tour guide who isn't just a fact-spouting robot. Found the tour to be funny, informative and thoroughly entertaining, and all of that in one of the best cities in the world. Would absolutely recommend the bike tour also to see the... More

My girlfriend and I did the Good Barcelona Free Walking Tour with Jim and found it to be excellent. We have been touring Europe and have done a number of "free walking tours" and this one is as good as it gets. Entertaining, informative and enjoyable. Highly recommend the bike tour once you have done the walking tour. Scott from... More

I did this tour because I thought I had nothing to loose doing a free tour. I find now when I think of my trip to Barcelona I wish I had spent my very valuable limited time in another way (with another free tour for example or on my own). I went to the meeting place at the bottom of... More

We are sorry that you didn't enjoy your tour experience as much as most of our other tourists. We aim to show parts of the city that aren't necessarily in most tourist guidebooks. Our tour is of the Gothic quarter. We see as much as possible in a short distance and two hour timeframe. Most of the larger sites of... More

Actually the best walking and bike tours we have ever done! If you go to BCN and DONT do the tours with these guys then you are CRAZY! The first day we did the walking tour with Bill, he was funny and helpful and everything you could ever want from a walking tour guide! Bill then encouraged us to go... More

Jim is the most hilarious person I have ever met. The tour is brilliant and the best time. HIGHLY recommended!! I went on the bike tour as well and it was just as good as the walking tour. Ive been to Barcelona 4x already, and after taking many tours, this one was my favorite. GOOD BARCELONA! More

My trip to barcelona was a last-minute decision so we didn't have any plans upon arrival. We were referred to this tour by our hostel and we're warmly greeted with smiles and jokes upon arrival. I won't give too many details about the tour so i don't spoil the experience, but we took a clever little route through the heart... More

WOW!! What a great walking tour! I joined Good Barcelona walking tour after a recommendation of a fellow traveler. I was only in BCN for 2 days, travelling by myself, so it was a really time efficient way to see the main sights and also find some new friend for tapas and sangria later in the evening, Jim was our...
