About Tour Guide Liliia S.
Hi, I’m Lillia Syromiatnikova — your local guide in Barcelona.
I see Barcelona beyond the postcard version — through hidden streets, creative neighborhoods, and unforgettable local details.
I live here, speak Spanish, and create personal experiences that can be tailored to you, from shopping and gallery tours to street art, mystical, musical, and running tours.
I understand that due to the heat, flights, hotel transfers, or your travel plans, you may prefer to take the tour at an unusually early, late, or nighttime hour. I would be delighted to accommodate you — just send me a message, and we can agree on a time that suits you best.
And if you want more than a tour, I can also help you plan your stay in Barcelona through my travel concierge service.
Important
All tours can be tailored to your preferences. And if you’d like a trusted person in Barcelona to help organize your trip and support you throughout your stay with insider knowledge, I’d be happy to help through my travel concierge service.

All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Great Tour and Different Glimpse of Barcelona”
Our tour guide, Liliia, was great. She confirmed our tour details in advance and was early to meet us. We are English speakers and she was fluent in English. She was very knowledgeable, has a friendly manner and shared some interesting stories about the city’s fascinating history. We greatly enjoyed the tour and will tour with her again when we return to Barcelona.

Liliia was a great guide ! She was very knowledgeable and informative. She showed me a part of Barcelona that was beautiful and historic.

Carlos C.
I'm a highly passionate and enthusiastic tour guide from Barcelona, well-versed in both the city's mainstream attractions and its lesser-known gems. Overall, food, history, urbanism, and architecture are my passions, but they truly come alive when I can share them with you. I firmly believe that a guided tour isn't just about me and my knowledge. It's about striking a balance between delivering quality information, exchanging culture, and, most importantly, considering the diverse personalities of my clients. Above all, I prioritize listening to your interests and preferences, ensuring that our interaction is tailored to meet your needs. I also welcome the opportunity to learn from your experiences and stories, enriching our mutual understanding if you're open to it. At the end of the day, my challenge is to provide you with an experience offering a 360º view (clear but not overwhelming) of Barcelona, Catalonia, and Spain. I want you to feel that when you return home, you've experienced and embraced a piece of Spain and old Europe. During our time together, I strive to make learning about history and art enjoyable while igniting your curiosity to continue exploring beyond our tour. And, I can't forget something fundamental – I'm always ready to introduce you to the local cuisine. If you're someone who loves experiencing a country through its flavors, you're in for a delightful culinary journey! About my background: With a degree in Languages and Literature, coupled with prior experience in Marketing, I bring a diverse skill set to my tours. Drawing from this background, I specialize in crafting immersive, personalized narratives that delve into Barcelona's architecture, urbanism, arts, politics, and social dynamics. For me, the true magic happens when I can bridge the gap between the past and present through the lens of present-day Barcelona.
