We Love barcelona
Almost 30 years ago, Barcelona Guide Bureau was launched with one goal in mind: To help visitors to our beautiful city uncover its secrets and enjoy its charms in an unforgettable way even creating the first-of-its-kind Tour Guide Training Centre in Spain, to make sure our licensed guides were so perfectly trained and prepared, they could answer any question about the city, its historical sites and attractions, and give our guests the ultimate Barcelona experience. Because of COVID-19, it had to close and now 3 colleagues who met working there have created Barcelona Experts. As proud successors, we want to maintain the same values in this new stage with Barcelona Experts.
We love Barcelona-and it shows in every tour we lead. Let us create the perfect personalized private tour experience for you and your party, our passion for our city and what we do, shines through.

sÒNIA CRESPO
After a trip to Paris, I understood the importance and the advantages of having a good guide on a trip. I decided to study to become a guide that leaves a mark. What I like most about the profession is to transmit my passion and the possibility to meet people from all over the world.
Born in Barcelona, I have a degree in Tourism and Business. I have been working as a guide since 1999.
I love my job. To detect the surprise, satisfaction and gratitude of clients / friends, is magical!
ANNA LLUÏSA SUBIRÀ
I like to show my beloved city of Barcelona to those who come from outside and show them all the details and corners, transmitting the history, but also the anecdotes and secrets. I want them to feel how Barcelona welcomes them and I want them to want to come back so we can meet again.
I am in love with people and languages and that is why I studied Translation and Interpreting of English and Japanese.
After a few years working as a translator, since 2015 I have been working as a full-time official guide. I love it!.
ABEL ROCA
I was born in Barcelona and have guided all around the world: Europe, Asia, America, and Africa.
I qualified as a Licensed Guide 1990 and have worked professionally as a local guide of Barcelona and Catalonia ever since. What I value the most about my job is having a good time with the customers.
I like to get up in the morning and wonder “where will I go today, and with whom?“. I try to make every day a little adventure. Visitors are always great people, happy to be here and looking forward to having fun and learning. And I also learn by listening to them.

Giving back to Barcelona
The best way to preserve its charm and beauty for our visitors today and for years to come is to care for our environment and give back to our community. We promote sustainable shops and restaurants that embrace local produce and farm-to-table cuisine.
We promote the use of low-emission vehicles and offer to travel by AVE high-speed train on our Dalí Museum and Girona tours. We even care about noise pollution, encouraging the use of whisper-guide radio systems on our tours so you can hear your guide, but passers-by are blissfully unaware. Barcelona Guide Bureau, where we all started and that had to close during the COVID pandemic, was the first tour operator in the world to meet the Biosphere Responsible Tourism Standards. It’s proof of our commitment to economic, social, cultural, and environmental balance—and we’re incredibly proud to continue following these values.
We are offering a wholly focused and dedicated sustainable tour of Barcelona for our guests who are committed to responsible tourism. When you travel with us, you’re not only having an unforgettable holiday experience, you’re giving back to Barcelona and promoting responsible, sustainable tourism.
