Amazing local knowledge, adventure and education wrapped in one! - The most amazing day, such incredible local guides and a perfect mix of adventure and education. Every part was awesome, we loved the hike, the picnic lunch, the beech forest and the swim at the lake at the end topped it all off. Would 100% recommend this tour and Girona Explorers! They gave us lots of local tips so we are excited for more adventures in this beautiful part of the world!

Magnificent day out - We could not have asked for more on this trip. We started with an on time pick up by the excellent guides, a short car ride to the volcano and the day began. A great walk with interesting chatter with the Danny, our guide. Next was to one of the most wonderous forests I have ever been in. Then lunch, we really enjoyed a typical Catalan picnic lunch under the trees. Plenty of delicious food and drink. After lunch we swam at a most idyllic waterfall - this was the absolute highlight for my kids - jumping in from high on the rocks, swimming in the fresh water, wonderful. We ended the trip with a walk by the pristine lake. All in all this day was an amazing experience. Thank you!
