Must do tour - Rod was an excellent guide, one of the best I have had on any trip in Europe. Extremely knowledgeable. If you want to lean History about Spain, this is the tour for you. Wonderful historical sites to see and some beautiful landscapes and towns. Highly recommend this tour.

Stiges and Tarragona tour - The guide himself, felt like we were out with a favourite uncle. Enjoyed free time and the bonus festival of Santa Tecla in Tarragona. Topped off with beautiful weather and great food.

Loved it! - The tour was so much fun. Rod, our guide was amazing; funny, informative, and full of great recommendations. Both cities are very cool in their own way, Tarragona with its Roman history, and the beach town of Sitches. 100% would recommend.

Nice getaway from Barcelona - I love the mix of history, architecture and swimming! Nice tour to a nice ancient town of Tarragona, with rich history. We had a great guide Steve who gave an interesting historical overview and opinions of an expat in Catalonia. Totally recommend this tour, hope you’ll enjoy it too!

How great our experience was with Rod - It was the most memorable experience I ever had thanks to Rod. He was full of hospitality and knowledge about Catalunya. Because we are very much interested in the history of this region, his knowledge was so valuable to us. We truly appreciate his kindness and hospitality today. Best wishes, Seiji & Vicky.

Credits to the guide & driver Nando - I really like the combination of the group tour which is not very big and a mini van instead of a big bus. The guide Nando who is also the driver and the other one were very caring as we have an elderly couple in this tour. We have got enough time to explore each place and the explanation of the itinerary was clear. The recommendation of the restaurant was perfect with what I wanted to try. Will definitely pick the tours from explore Catalunya again and if possible, have Nando as your guide. They make sure you have enough time for each spot and would help you to take photos at the best spot.

Interesting Roman influences in Tarragona - Small group of guests with Sergi as our guide. We got along quite well. Sergi knew his history. Lots of good info on the sites we visited. Answered our questions and offered suggestions on where to go with our limited free time. Downer was Sitges where restaurant stay took 2 hours. Sunday crowd made Sitges super busy.
