Barcelona: Protagonist of Cinema and Novels Live Tour

    60 Minutes

Barcelona has always inspired artists of all kinds due to its location between the hills and the sea, the incredible architecture, the gastronomy and the people.

Many movie directors and writers have chosen her to develop their movies and stories here, being the city herself a main character in all of them.

I have picked 3 movies: “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer”, “Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona” and “All About my Mother”.

And 2 novels: “The Shadow of the Wind” by Carlos Ruiz Zafón and “Cathedral of the Sea” by Ildefonso Falcones.

Our walk will take you to some of the emblematic spots that appear in those films and books, traveling from the Modernist times to the Middle Ages and more.

We start by the wonderful Music Concert Hall, Palau de la Música, to then walk through the mysterious and fantastic old town, The Gothic Quarter and the Ribera. Here we will explore the Barcelona of the medieval times with its narrow streets and its amazing buildings, such as the cathedral and the Santa María del Mar Church.

And you can choose to end there or inside the beautiful city park, Ciutadella, in front of the imposing fountain designed, among others, by a young Antoni Gaudí.

Today you are the protagonist. Come Walk With Me!

    We loved it. It was 3 of us, with different interests so the walk with Jesus was perfect because he includes a mix of art, history, culture and entertainment in his comments.
    The idea of this kind of walk seduced us as well.
    And we were surprised how well and clean we could see what Jesus showed us.
    We highly recommend it.

¡Hola!
I work as a Tour Manager since 1992, the year we had the Olympic Games in the city I love and live now, Barcelona.

I have worked as a translator-interpreter, even had my years as an actor and published my first novel two years ago. I've lived in many countries including Germany, Brazil, Portugal and the US and I speak Spanish, English and Portuguese.

My passions are history, literature, architecture, languages, film and sports, and I feel very fortunate to work as a Tour Manager and share a combination of them with my clients in the cities we visit together.
