Hola a todos, soy Jony, un periodista y estudiante de arte nacido en Argentina y viviendo en Barcelona desde hace 6 años. Creé mis tours para dar a conocer la rica historia de Barcelona: siglos de historia y personajes que vivieron en estas callejuelas. Mi objetivo principal es que cada visitante que haga un tour conmigo, lo disfrute mientras adquiere unos conocimientos y sensaciones que lo transporten en una línea del tiempo. Desde la época cuando los romanos fundaron Barcino hasta la Barcelona contemporánea y moderna; a través de un viaje imaginario y tan real a la vez.
This was my first tour focused on the Jewish Quarter in Barcelona, and it fully met my expectations. The tour lasted exactly the advertised two hours and was conducted with a small group, which Jonny managed very well throughout the route. The historical content was solid and well documented. One particularly interesting element was the Torah of the synagogue, purchased in Morocco and later donated to the Major Synagogue of Barcelona, which added real historical depth to the visit. Jonny also included many cultural references that are especially meaningful if you are Jewish or have Jewish ancestry, particularly on the maternal side. Details such as the eastward orientation of the synagogue toward Israel, or the historical renaming of nearby streets, helped contextualize the space and its significance. At the end of the tour, Jonny recommended Barcelona’s main Jewish bookshop, which I visited afterward to ask about language classes. The tour is highly recommended for Jewish visitors in Barcelona and still very worthwhile for those with Jewish ancestry, even from a more secular or agnostic perspective. Jonny’s English was clear and easy to follow; when technical terms came up, he took the time to explain them in Spanish, which was appreciated. Overall, a well-organized, informative, and professionally delivered tour.
We had a fantastic walking tour of Barcelona’s Jewish Quarter with Jony. He was warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable, bringing the history of El Call to life. The tour was well paced and felt both personal and meaningful. A wonderful experience that added real depth to our time in Barcelona — highly recommended!
He’s absolutely excellent knows his subject and expresses it with amusement knowledge and sincerity. If you are able to book a later tour then you will have a better chance of gaining access to the old synagogue
He notado mucha garra y conocimiento del tema que trataba el tour. Muy bueno
