**Review for the tour operator** I am leaving this review only because I keep being asked to rate a tour I never took, and because Viator is still trying to make me pay for it. I did not attend this tour. I booked it only after a Viator agent cancelled a different booking by mistake and could not restore it. This operator is not the problem. Viator is. Viator's mistake was the cause of the booking, the service was never provided, and Viator is still refusing to refund it.

A really stress free and relaxed experience and our host Cristina had great knowledge and was really friendly.👍
It’s walking. No interior view of cathedral Get view other Gaudi buildings Leonardo was a great guide
Leonardo was a great tour guide with so much knowledge. We learned so much! The tour was easily walkable
Christina - a Great tour guide. Patient. Interesting. Funny. Would love to be entertained by her again. Bravo !
The history of Barcelona through architecture - a fascinating and rewarding learning experience. Without our guide Leonardo, we would have missed most of the nuance and looked at the obvious and said “ooh, pretty.” Instead we got the details that make a city come to life.
Leonardo was amazing! He answered my text immediately. He was very knowledgeable and answered our questions.
Leonardo is an exceptional guide, he is well versed in the history of the area. I felt like we're getting the inside scoop on the history of not only the Sagrada Familia Church, but Barcelona as well. He also showed us the best photo spots! I highly recommend Leonardo!
Leonardo was an excellent guide and historian. We learned very much from our experience. I would highly recommend him!
The guide did not start the tour on time. We, like the others who signed up, were fooled by the fine print and did not know this was an exterior walking tour. The meeting point was over a mile away. This was a total scam and I will never book with Viatour again
While it was too late to get tickets inside the church, our tour guide, Leo, made it memorable and shared great stories about the Gaudi architecture that really brought the experience to life. Thank you for helping make my few hours in Barcelona feel full!
This was a great, informative walking tour with a lovely, friendly, knowledgeable guide. However, the description of this tour specifically said, “masterclass in photography with photos worthy of displaying in your home”. We did not receive any guidance on photo-taking whatsoever. So, the description was wrong.
The tour is very misleading Definitely not worth the money as it starts more than 2km from arguada familia. And does not focus on it as advertised
Our guide was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable, flexible . Only bad part was the heat. The walk can be challenging in the heat.
I had the best time with Leonardo the guide. We were a small nice group and from the beginning I felt really Welcome. The Guide was really nice and extremely knowledgeable with a good sense of humor. The tour was spectacular. I saw so many thing I would have never found on my own, learned a ton and had a really good time. I also got really cool photos and tips to take better photos so honestly so worth it.
The tour was amazing. Leonardo made the day amazing. He was a wealth of knowledge and a pleasure to spend the afternoon with. Highly recommend this tour with Leonardo. You won’t be disappointed.
Lorenzo was fabulous. He enjoyed sharing his wealth of knowledge with us. Very cordial and informative. We really enjoyed our Tour!
Very knowledgeable guide highly recommended. We both loved this experience what a difference since my visit in 1987.
It’s was an excellent walking tour. Leonardo was very knowledgeable and pleasant. I would highly recommend this tour .
‘Tis was an excellent tour. Leonardo was knowledgeable, friendly and gave us great tips on the best photo angles.
We had the most wonderful experience with Leonardo, during our family photoshoot in Barcelona. Taking photos near the Sagrada Familia and the Gaudí architecture made everything feel magical and unique. From the very beginning, Leonardo made us feel comfortable and relaxed, which was especially important with kids. The session felt natural and fun, not forced at all. She guided us gently while still capturing genuine moments. The photos turned out absolutely stunning — full of light, color, and emotion. She beautifully captured both our family connection and the incredible atmosphere of Barcelona. We will treasure these memories forever and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for timeless family photos in Barcelona.
This tour was absolutely fantastic! Our tour guide Leonardo was knowledgeable & extremely helpful. He was not rushed and took the time to make the experience the best it could possibly be for me and my wife. I highly recommend the tour with Leonardo. 5 stars!
The knowledge and experience of Leonardo was wonderful. He was easy to understand and very kind. His grasp of the world and relating it to Barcelona's history was outstanding.
Great walking tour, great opportunity to take good photos for instagram. I would highly recommend it for anyone.
Very knowledgeable guide who answered all our questions Lovely small group Highly recommend this tour
Leonardo was the best. He was knowledgeable and made the tour Interesting. I appreciated his candor and honesty. Having a local guide is the only way to go
The app was not working and while we paid for our tickets we were unable to print them. This was abosultely a rip off, they took our money no problem but never sent us tickets!
The most valuable part is the interesting information about historical places. Tour was excellent! Thanks for sharing this.
I've never done a photography walking tour before, but I am now definitely a fan! Leo gave me an amazing tour of Passeig de Gràcia and the surroundings of Sagrada Familia. I learned so much about Gaudi architecture and picked up a few new phone photography tricks. Highly recommend this experience!
Was great to have a day again with Leo and photowalk family. Was a new tour for me, and for sure I will repeat in sagrada família tour.
Discover the highlights of the modernist route in a fun and stimulating environment. With this experience, improve your photography technique and discover many curiosities about the most emblematic points of Barcelona. Highly recommended!!! Open to people of all photographic levels.
It was a nice experience! No matter if you are amateur or professional photographer, you will meet interesting people to share tips and opinions. Charlotte and Leonardo want to make you feel good within the group.
This photo walk is an incredible experience for anyone passionate about photography. Exploring Barcelona’s stunning architecture while connecting with fellow enthusiasts feels like a hunt for the perfect frame. The hosts are warm, knowledgeable, and keep everyone engaged, making it more than just a photo walk—it's a vibrant, growing community. Highly recommended!
Very nice experience. Charlotte and Leonardo did an excellent job. Even being a Barcelona native, they helped me to discover unknown, surprising places. I hope to join them again for other circuits
Nice photo tour through the city with lots of explanations about the buildings and how to take good photos. The tour guides are very friendly and it's fun to spend a few hours with them.
During our photowalk around Barcelona's modernista treasures and Sagrada Familia with Charlotte and Leo, we had an incredible time. The event was made extra spectacular by their enthusiasm for Gaudí's work and its rich history. Leo and Charlotte made such excellent hosts—they were kind, kind, and informed. Regardless of our group's degree of photographic expertise, they made sure everyone was at ease and involved. Along with learning a great deal about photography, we also learnt a great deal about Barcelona's hidden gems and architecture. This photowalk is a really unusual and fascinating way to visit this lovely city, and I definitely suggest it. We came away from Barcelona with wonderful memories, stunning images, and a greater understanding of the city's past and present. Once again, Charlotte and Leo, thank you!
Had an amazing time at the photo tour learning quirky facts about the architecture in Barcelona and snapping photos along the way! It was a great way to meet new people from all walks of life and share tips and tricks with fellow photography enthusiasts. Highly recommended if you want to experience the city from a different point of view!
Great Photo Walk ! Leonardo has tons of info about the city and its history. He also gave us amazing tips to improve our photos. 100% recommended !
I joined the Take a Photo Walk Tour to see the surroundings of the Sagrada Familia. It is a great opportunity for anyone interested in photography at any level. The city is very rich in architectural content and the hosts of the event created a great route for us to experience it. As someone who loves to know the little details, Leonardo and Charlotte's guidance on the interesting historical facts of the city was very nice to listen.
Amazing experience 10/10, we had an awesome time with the group and the coordinators ( Leo and Charlotte) are ready lovely they gives as all the information we need to know Abdou thé City and tips for photography. I really highly recommend
The experience was phenomenal....the guide helped us discover La Sagrada Familia and Gaudi, Montaner.....excellent
very interesting small group ( 4) comfortable shoes sun hat ☀️ walk a lot where there are no tourists, see a lot of beautiful hidden things! thank youuu !
I feel cheated; it is not clearly explained that the tour does not include entering the basilica. The guide reminds you just when he sees you enter the pickup point. Out of the 6 people we were, none knew about this. Everyone was disappointed and angry.
Explained the very professional story!! Very good work by Gustavo!! And very nice pictures we took with family during the tour!!
Excellent Experience with Leonardo , super recommended!!!! I have a wine bar in Vilanova i la Geltrú, with many foreign clients, I recommended the tour with Leonardo and my clients were super happy!!!
Leonardo y Charlotte fueron el dúo perfecto: elocuentes, muy conocedores de las obras arquitectónicas y con una pasión que se notaba en cada explicación. Cada uno aportaba una perspectiva distinta y se complementaban a la perfección, haciendo el recorrido muy interesante y dinámico. Siempre atentos, educados y cuidando que todos en el grupo estuviéramos bien. La pasamos genial y aprendimos muchos detalles que normalmente pasarían desapercibidos. ¡Súper recomendados!
THE proposed activity had a magnificent development. The group of people who attended, despite being very heterodox and with different languages to communicate was excellently coordinated by Leonardo who managed to get us all to interact together taking photos as if we were old friends During the circuit, leonardo nis was explaining characteristics of some sites of interest and also collaborating in the photographic technique for those who needed it. At the end of the activity we almost all went for drinks and we kept talking and met donuts. Of course I will repeat every proposal I make take a photowalk because they are extraordinary people.... 10 points out of 10
My fourth tour with the Photowalk community, super recommended if you like photography and meet people of different nationalities. We toured the Sagrada Familia and other points of interest in Barcelona. Leonardo and Charlotte the organizers of the events always attentive and friendly to the group! Super recommended.
A very well coordinated tour, with interesting explanations not only of the city, but also of how to make the most of it on a photographic level. The organizers are very friendly and experienced in the field. I took advantage of their advice and took many photos. I'll do other tours with them for sure.
Photo walk, tidy , very interesting views, excellent photos. friendly treatment and precise explanations from the guides.
