“Our experience with Paolo, our holiday houseboy tour guide in Barcelona, was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we met him, his kindness and genuine consideration shone through. Making us feel instantly at ease and welcomed. Paolo‘s intimate knowledge of the city allowed us to experience Barcelona from a native’s perspective, revealing a slice of everyday life that most tourists miss.
Paolo masterfully curated our tour to align perfectly with our interests, steering us away from the typical historical sites and instead immersing us in the vibrant neighborhoods and pulsating nightlife of the city. His selection of local sites and neighborhood bars was impeccable, each stop offering a unique glimpse into the soul of Barcelona. Highlights included visits to the trendy Axel Hotel and the fabulously eclectic Candy Darling, both of which perfectly encapsulated the lively spirit of the city.

Paolo with Dennis & friend
“He was a great guide in Barcelona. The tour was stress-free because of Paolo. I definitely would recommend him to my friends.” – Dennis, USA.
“I just wanted to send you a note to say how much we enjoyed our time with Paolo. Being honest we were a little skeptical due to the name “houseboys” we and our friends thought it could be more of an “escort/sex” thing but we were thrilled that it was not. Paolo was so knowledgeable of the city and walked us all over town. Next time we travel we would definitely use your services again. Very best!” – Patrick, USA.

Highlights of Barcelona
Barcelona is always a city worth seeing, not just because of its weather. Its culture, its history, its architecture or its beaches. It also has lots of life, both in the day and at night. You are always able to find something to do and a new place to see.
La Ramblas is known for being the most famous street in Barcelona and is packed with shops and boutiques. Therefore this is probably the biggest tourist trap in Barcelona.
Don’t forget to look out for the flower markets and street mosaics. In addition to this, you will find the Christopher Columbus Monument at the beginning of La Ramblas and make sure to make a visit to Palace of the Virreina.
If you’re looking for a little lunch of traditional Spanish tapas, head a few metres off La Rambla to Plaça Reial. Here you will find a small square that is filled with restaurants and cafes that’s perfect for a relaxing afternoon bite and cold beer.
Home to Gaudi’s most prized architecture and parks. Barcelona is the perfect place to experience some of his world renowned works. From Park Güell, Casa Milà to La Sagrada Família, there’s plenty of beautiful places to enjoy.
La Sagrada Família
Explore Antoni Gaudi’s unfinished masterpiece, the Sagrada Familia. Gaudi’s iconic work attracts hundreds of locals and visitors alike. They queue to see its impressive facades and mouth dropping interior every day. Therefore, making it one of the most visited monuments in Spain.
Admire the facades, interior, museum, and school. Work began on creating this true symbol of Barcelona back in 1882, and the Sagrada Familia remains a work in progress even today. Although unfinished, the basilica is by no means unworthy of a visit. A combination of Gothic and Art Nouveau forms, the UNESCO-listed structure dominates the Barcelona skyline.
