OUR TEAM

Marta Folch

My name is Marta and I am a licensed guide in Barcelona, Catalonia and Menorca in the Balearic Islands.

I am the founder at Barnawalks and Menorcawalks.

I have been living and working in different countries and combined my passion for travelling and my job as a freelance photographer and a professional guide since I finished my first University Degree.

With a Masters Degree in Photography and Arts at the Polytechnic University of Valencia, a Masters Degree in Cultural Management by the UB -Barcelona University- and a Bachelor’s Degree in Advanced Tourism Studies, I have been working in the travel and tourism industry for more than 20 years.

I am an AGUICAT (Catalonia Licensed Guides Association) member.

I live and work currently in Barcelona and Menorca as a Licensed Guide by the Government of Catalonia and the Balearic Islands Government and as University Professor of Art History, Heritage and Cultural Patrimony, Gastronomy and Enology in Barcelona.

Meaning I am an expert on those subjects and can guide you in a very informative and entertaining way, plus taking you to the best spots on food and beverage, as I am considered a real foodie amongst my family and friends.

I am passionate about Catalan heritage, its people and culture and this is what I like to transmit.

Are you ready to discover more than 2000 years of history and all hidden gems in the amazing Catalan region and the Balearic Islands?

Looking for a custom experience? Do not hesitate to request it and I will design a special tour that adapts and meets all your expectations!

See you very soon!
