Who we are

Local guides. Real stories.

You don't buy a tour.
You make a memory.

We live here. We work here. We know the streets, the stories, the places worth stopping for — and the ones you can happily walk past.

Walking Planets started as a small team of guides who kept being asked the same question by travellers: "what would you do if you had one day here?" The honest answer never looked like the tours being sold on the street.

So we built ours. Own operations team, own meeting points, own relationships with the bars, museums and chefs we send you to.

Years from now you probably won't remember the exact street where you walked.

You'll remember who you were with. You'll remember laughing. You'll remember that incredible story your guide told you. You'll remember the taste.

That's what we're here for.

Every experience starts with one question: "would we want to do this ourselves?"

What we believe

Six rules we never break

People before places

A destination is nothing without the people who bring it to life.

Stories over facts

Information tells you what happened. Stories make you care.

Curious by default

We never stop asking questions — of the city and of ourselves.

Small moments matter

The best memories are rarely the ones on the itinerary.

Never boring

If we'd be bored doing it, we won't ask you to do it.

Leave something behind

Every traveller should leave with more than they arrived with.

How we work

Own operations,
not a booking page

An office in Barcelona coordinating logistics every day, meeting points across the city, and a team at the Port of Barcelona whenever a ship comes in.

  • Accredited official guides, passionate about their city
  • Small groups and flexible itineraries
  • Solid relationships with local providers
  • Products designed for students and cruise passengers
  • Barcelona, Costa Brava, Montserrat, Sitges, Girona, Tarragona, Besalú — and southern France on request
Who we work with

Good things are better together.

We work with local businesses, museums, artists, chefs, guides and creators who believe in doing things differently — together we build experiences travellers couldn't find on their own.
