Outstanding tours of Barcelona and Mont Serrat

Published on Jun, 2024

Two tours, two fantastic and enjoyable guides. The trip to MontJuic was fabulous, Sara was so pleasant and knowledgeable while we walked and toured around Barcelona. The trip to MontSerrat with Sandra was fantastic. Sandra was amazing with the travel details and all the people with special needs. She was fun to be with as well as very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this destination

Montserrat Tour

Published on Jun, 2024

More time at Montserrat to be given to visitors. Map handout of the place would be useful. A shrine to visit before Sagrada Familia

Amazing views

Published on Jun, 2023

Such a massing trip to walk around Barcelona for the day and see all the architecture and different styles then see Olympic park and the view and to end it at such a religious place was amazing

A perfect last day here

Published on Feb, 2023

I scheduled this trip after being here for a week. I regret not doing it sooner. Hugo did an amazing job telling us the history of every street we walked down, making sure to tell us where it was in relation to the Romans, and medieval times. I had no clue I was steps away from so much for so long, and I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner. The highlight tour was 5 hours and ended at 1, exactly like he said. We didn't have to rush to get to our Montserrat tour at 2, which was very nice. Our Montserrat tour guide, Sasha, was excellent. He kept us entertained, informed, and making sure we understood the significance of the monastery as a whole. This package, especially the monastery, was the absolute best part of my trip. And everyone I talk to is going to hear about my awesome guides and the amazing sights.
