Tour of Montserrat, Girona, and Costa Brava - Han was an awesome tour guide. He gave us an amazing tour and we had a blast. We were a family of 8 and thankful for the experience. Han knows the Spanish history really well and he was passionate about sharing his knowledge. He adjusted the tour to keep us out of the blazing heat and also shared nice restaurant recommendations.

Worth your money - Our tour guides Bosco, Audrey and Jose were very passionate and knowledgeable about the places taking time and patience to answer questions. Enough time given at all the places to explore on our own too. Only downside was the walk to and fro for lunch but the delicious food compensated for vegetarians like me.

Great 12hr excursion! - We had chosen the tour with the lunch option. Our tour guides Bosco, Audrey and Jose were extremely passionate and knowledgeable about all the three places. They were also very compassionate and aware of the needs of the tourists. Enough time given at all 3 places with free time to explore. The only downside was the long walk to and fro from the restaurant but the delicious food made it up for vegetarians like me. Must see if you are in Barcelona!

A taste of Catalonia - This amazing trip is essential to get a great idea about Catalonia, outside the city of Barcelona. Our amazing and very knowledgeable tour guides, bosco, jose and audrey , did a great job giving us historic details and social and cultural context of the places we visited. Thank you, guys for the AMAZING trip and for accommodating our different needs along the tour.

Cool experience - Great tour, Carlos really put a lot of thought on how we can be comfortable. He made sure we were in the shade as much as possible. He was brief with all the information while still being informative. We learned a lot on this tour and also enjoyed it. The bus was great on the first half of the tour. They had great air-conditioning. The second bus was awful. It was humid and hot and their air conditioning did not work. Don’t know why they changed the bus, but it did bring down the quality of the tour.
