Fantastic scenery and best tour guide ever!!! - What an amazing tour! It was like stepping back in time walking around Santa Pau and the goat's cheese salad at the little restaurant was one of the best meals ever. Besalu was absolutely breathtaking - so many beautiful buildings and the cobblestone laneways were a sight to behold! Xavi, my tour guide/driver was so knowledgeable and his love of these beautiful medieval towns was infectious. He was really helpful when suggesting the best spots to take the perfect photo. I would thoroughly recommend this tour - not only for the incredible scenery but also to learn about the history of this area from Xavi.

Historic and memorable. - We had a memorable trip to the medieval historic cities of Besalu, Vic and Santa Pau. Our guide Xavi was quite accommodating and provided all the historical facts and points of interest on our journey. Along the way we visited a small cafe where he helped us order a delicious meal. It was nice to get out of the big city for the day and visit the rural countryside. I highly recommend this trip to explore and experience another part of Spain.

Medieval Towns Tour with Knowledgeable Guide - 我在贝萨卢和其他中世纪小镇度过了一个非常放松的整日游。我们的导游Xavi对历史非常了解,分享了关于中世纪和建筑的精彩见解。我们悠闲地漫步于这些迷人的古镇,没有任何匆忙或压力,体验非常愉快。Xavi还推荐了一些很棒的当地餐厅,我们品尝了美味的食物。总的来说,这次旅行完美融合了历史、文化和美食,让我度过了难忘又轻松的一天。 I had a wonderfully relaxing full-day tour of Besalú and other medieval towns. Our tour guide, Xavi, was incredibly knowledgeable about history, sharing fascinating insights about medieval times and the architecture of the buildings. We strolled through the charming old towns at a leisurely pace, with no rush or pressure, which made the experience truly enjoyable. Xavi also recommended some fantastic local restaurants, where we enjoyed delicious food.

A spectacular day in Medieval Catalonia - It is hard to explain when something exceeds your expectations to the highest level. Our guide was David and from start to finish it was a day filled with history, local culture and many geologic surprises. Three towns, three completely different experiences. The mountains outside Barcelona are ancient wonders and because of David's knowledge we saw everything from the best viewpoints. Lots of hidden surprises, we would give him 6 stars if it was possible!!
