What you’ll do

During the last years, Barcelona has become one of the main destinations in the world. A lot of visitors come to the city attracted by the enchantments of the culture and history art of this gem of the Mediterranean. But it also has slightly lost this main essence with new attractions made for the tourist who searches for bad quality entertainment. Somehow it´s the price you pay for being on the top destinations of the world. With our immersive local experiences, we give the chance to discover the real Barcelona to the tourist who is seeking for it. For us, the real Barcelona it´s made by their artisan’s citizens, who are not only working to keep traditions but also creating the new city of the 21st century. Learning from their mastery and being part of their daily routine in their workplace, we hope our client can discover the city, not just visit it.
