miriam INTRODUCES HERSELF
Hi! I’m Míriam and I was born in Canet de Mar, a charming seaside village between Barcelona and Girona: I’m a true Catalan!
I studied tourism in Girona, then lived in Barcelona for many years (I’ll always be in love with the Gràcia district), but now I’m back to Canet to raise my baby girl.
I met Marta when we were passing our exams to become official tour guides in 2000. Soon afterwards, I got hired by one of the companies that offer daily step-up sightseeing tours, and there we met again one day that Marta joined one of their excursions to Montserrat because she needed to learn how “professional tour guides” organized this daytrip. I was the guide that day, so Marta often says that a lot of the things she knows about Montserrat she learned them from me! ☺
I’m a traveler: I convinced Marta to join me on a trip to the Middle East (when it was still safe), but my favorite remains India: I can’t wait to go back!
I love photography, food and art. I’m passionate, emotional, very honest and straightforward.
What we love about her
Having Míriam as your guide will be the icing on the cake of your trip. She will show you our city like an old good friend, taking you not just to the main sites but also to her favorite hidden gems, and you’ll be amazed at her knowledgeable commentary. There is no question she can’t answer!
But she’s also lots of fun to be with, and her love and enthusiasm for Barcelona is so contagious that you won’t want the tour to end.
Plus if you are traveling with your family, she’s amazing with kids and she knows how to keep your teens engaged.
with us since 2012
