Sandra was not only incredibly knowledgeable but was also friendly, approachable and fun. I learnt so much from her and thoroughly enjoyed our time together. We walked around main areas of town and smaller hidden pockets to see the influences and history of mysticism and esotericism in Barcelona. I was also given a history of the area itself and of Sandra’s experience and knowledge of these subjects. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in the hidden and often overlooked and covered up aspects of history. Thanks Sandra!
Sandra’s esoteric tour was absolutely fascinating. She gave me a whole new way to look at Barcelona — not just through its history and architecture, but through the layers of symbolism, mystery, and meaning hidden within the city. Her passion and depth of knowledge made the experience unforgettable, and I came away with a better understanding and appreciation of esoterism in general. If you’re looking for something unique and mind-opening in Barcelona, I can’t recommend this tour highly enough!
Fabulous tour!! Our guide Sandra was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. A unique experience!!! Very wide ranging information on Christianity. Kabbalah, Phillip Lindsay, Gaudi, the Freemasons, Rosicrucians and others from am esoteric perspective.
The guide is an expert of Western esotericism. She was able to passionately unpack Western obsession with dualisms; esotericism-exotericism, black-white, above-below, feminine-masculine. Including Qaballah, she drew several ideas together, unifying schools that have for example been accused for racism and antisemitism (Blavatsky, Steiner). Walking Barcelona, following stories, looking for symbols, became an interesting and different encounter with the heart of the city.
Hands down the highlight of my trip. Sandra was knowledgeable, energetic, engaging and absolutely delightful all around. Her depth of information combined with her obvious passion for esoterics was infectious and both rekindled my love of the subject as well as motivated me to seek deeper learning. Thank you Sandra!!
This tour was an incredible dive into the history of Barcelona and Western esotericism. I think I heard hundreds of stories and historical facts about Templars, Masons, alchemy, mysticism, Kabballah, and Tarot, and, and, and... during our three-hour tour as we walked on the narrow streets of the Barri Gotic. Very fascinating! After the tour, my head was spinning from all this. If you feel at all at home with the subject matter, I highly recommend it. Sandra has an incredible repository of information, and she even starts the tour just for you.
Amazing tour of the secret history- everything from the Roman burial grounds, Rosicrucianism, mysticism, Kabbalah, building masonry and the connections between them. Even gave us info on alchemy and Tarot cards. We thoroughly enjoyed the spiritual connection to all the topics. Sandra is extremely passionate about her continuing lifelong education and pursuit of the numerous subjects. She has a talent to explain in detail all the time understanding we are laymen. I highly recommend this enthusiastic, passionate, remarkably knowledgably tour guide
Sandra was amazing, she was a wealth of knowledge on everything spiritual. We learned so much on our tour and had a lot of fun doing it!
The tour was excellent. We liked everything. Great knowledge and great talent in transmitting teachings.
Sandra is extremely knowledgeable and very generous at sharing her expertise. If you want a blast of the secret history of this incredible city mixed with tons of interesting facts about masonry, rosicrucianism, alchemy, Kabbalah and mysticism she is your guide. I can’t recommend her enough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was an incredible way to spend an evening in Barcelona. Lots of specific tidbits about the city itself were weaved into the larger narrative of esotercism as a whole, masterfully told across several hours and various locations. If you are interested in these topics, I highly recommend taking this tour.
The information shared was enlightening and gave us a lot to talk about. We enjoyed learning about the Roman burial ground and the history of the Gothic and Jewish quarters. We appreciated the connections made to all the spiritual traditions and even though the walk was windy at times we could have continued our conversation with Sandra for another hour or so had we not made dinner reservations. If you enjoy medieval history and symbolism, you should not miss this tour.
First of all, Sandra is a lovely person and very generous with her knowledge. It is clear that her preparation is profound and in her case we are truly talking about a professional who has been studying Western esotericism for more than twenty years! We were impressed by both her historical and esoteric knowledge. She managed to convey the information to us in simple and engaging language. The tour proved to be absolutely original and at the same time immersed in historical reality with a new interpretation! Sandra is absolutely empathetic and manages to grasp the energy and shape herself accordingly. Highly recommended, if she organized other types of tours we would definitely choose her again!
Absolutely remarkable enthusiastic guide with wide knowledge of everything mystical from Ancient Greek to Hebrew to Christian sources.
Sandra is amazing. She's so knowledgable about the spirtual/religous history of Barcelona...and many countries, actually. She's very accommodating and has a warm spirit. If you're looking for a tour that will open your eyes to the hidden gems of the spiritual world, this is your tour.
One-of-a-kind, revelatory experience. Unlike anything I have ever seen in a tour. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone who deems themselves “spiritual,” or at least a history buff.
Sandra is a knowledgeable, passionate, interesting and fun tour guide. I enjoyed every second and could’ve continued listening to her for hours. I highly recommend doing her tour if you are interested in having an introduction to Barcelona that goes far beyond the standard free walking tour.
This tour made our trip! I highly recommend you do this tour to get the real, interesting and enchanting take on Barcelona. Sandra is full of knowledge about the ancient history of Barcelona and is well versed on all spiritual topics. This tour was well worth the time and money, Sandra did not rush it, we took a mysterious tour of the city unveiling truths and deep history about the buildings, people and spiritual concepts embedded in Barcelona. Try it! Go beyond the shopping, photos and food to see the real Barcelona and let your mind open up to old thoughts and new adventures. This was the best thing we did on our trip :)
If you have come across Sandra because you have searched for an esoteric tour in Barcelona, you are just where you should be. And if this is your practice, you know how rare it is to find a tour whose focus is on esotericism or a guide who has any idea what that means. We felt fortunate indeed to spend three hours with Sandra and were absolutely astounded at the breadth of her knowledge. She weaves her many years of Mystery School study together as she takes you through the Gothic Quarter talking about Kabbalah in Catalonia as well as pointing out Templar and Freemason symbolism. Be prepared to be an active listener, ready to absorb the knowledge Sandra shares. Her tour was a highlight of out time in the city.
I travel to Barcelona often. I've done many tours, and I know the history and sites well. I was in Barcelona recently, and decided to try something different. And, I'm so glad I did! Sandra showed me a Barcelona I've never seen before. Her passion for Barcelona and its history, both mainstream and esoteric, is infectuous. And, she is not one of those who bores you with a scripted tour. I found the hidden jewels and symbolism that she talked about absolutely fascinating. I recommend Sandra's tours to everybody. Muchas, muchas gracias Sandra!!
I would highly recommend this tour. This is a tour for anyone who is interested in spirituality and wants a deeper understanding of what lies behind Barcelona. Sandra provides interesting insights and explanations.
A fabulous esoteric tour of Barcelona! Sandra is an excellent guide and shares her wealth of knowledge. It gave me a deeper insight into Barcelona and esotericism in general. Highly recommended!
