Chris_B, Jul 2026

Great Half Day Tour From Barcelona

Tour was well organized and very informative. I really liked the guides, Andreas and Nacho, who were knowledgeable and funny. I feel like you have plenty of time to explore, too. The guided portion of the tour was great! While the hiking trails were closed during my visit due to wildfires, there were still plenty of great lookouts.

Great day!

It was a fun day, though if you aren’t use to kayaking you will feel it. Getting on and off the kayak is a funny sight to behold. The water is magic when we stopped to swim. Rod was patient when waiting for catch up kayaks. and assisting where needed. Andy met us and dripped us back in Barcelona. Thank you for your kind hospitality! The lunch provided was great - earned it. . Wished the bottled water was colder. Tip apply sunscreen and Take water on the kayak .though make sure you have it tied on or you’ll lose it thanks again

Montserrat Monastery Small Group or Private Tour Hotel pick-up

Oscar_T, Jul 2026

Alex is the best guide for Monsterrat

It was a nice morning trip to Montserrat Monastery. I highly recommend signing up for the morning excursion to beat the crowd. Our guide, Alex, is the BEST. He contacted me prior to our hotel pickup to confirm. He knows many people working at the Monastery. He got us access to visit the Black Madonna. Although we didn’t have that much time to enjoy Sant Joan Funicular longer. Also, Alex dropped us off at the Sagrada Família instead of our hotel. Very nice of him. Please ask for Alex to take you.

Fun activity away from the busy city

It was a fun day! Several nice places to see away from the city. Matt was our guide and he was phenomenal. He had a great speaking voice and was super easy to understand as he navigated us through the day and gave of the history of the areas we visited. Everyone in our family of 4 enjoyed the day.

Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel & Cliff Jump from Barcelona

Hussein_K, Jul 2026

Lovely way to spend a day on the beach

We had a great time on this trip and would definitely recommend it if you are in Barcelona for a few days. We got taken out about an hour to the Costa Brava coast and really enjoyed some time away from the city. Tete was our guide who was fab- really friendly and encouraging. We picked up the kayaks, took them to a place for the cliff jump and then did some snorkelling. We saw some great sites and really enjoyed our time. We finished with lunch which was a sandwich. Only thing I would advise is to take some snacks to complement the sandwich, which can be eaten on the beach after a morning of exercise!

Sagrada Familia, Park Guell & Gaudi Tour with no line Tickets

Mia_M, Jul 2026

Great Day in Barcelona

Milena, our guide, was the perfect mix of knowledgeable, hip, and genuinely fun. From the moment we met her, it felt less like we were being led around by a tour guide and more like we were spending the day with a local friend who couldn’t wait to show us her favorite city. Of course, we saw Barcelona’s iconic landmarks and learned the fascinating history behind them, but what made this tour unforgettable was everything in between. Milena took us beyond the tourist attractions and gave us a glimpse into how locals really live—the neighborhoods, hidden streets, local favorites, and the little details that bring the city to life. We left feeling like we had experienced the real Barcelona, not just checked off a list of sights. Milena was warm, engaging, and incredibly personable, with the perfect balance of history, culture, and fun stories. The hours flew by, and by the end of the tour we felt like we’d made a new friend. If you want an authentic, memorable, and genuinely enjoyable way to experience Barcelona, book this tour. It was hands down one of the highlights of our trip.

From Barcelona: 3 Countries in One Day — Spain, France & Andorra

Kiran_G, Jun 2026

Great experience

We had a wonderful experience on our three‑country tour with our guide, Xavi. He was entertaining, funny, and kept the day enjoyable from start to finish. The tour included several rest stops for snacks, bathroom breaks, and a chance to stretch, which made the long day much more comfortable. Although it’s a lengthy journey, the drive is beautiful and each destination is worth seeing. I would have loved a bit more time to explore at each stop, but given the distance from Barcelona, the schedule is understandably tight. Overall, it was a great tour and one I would still recommend.

Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery: Tour, Transfers & Basilica

Miguel_M, Jun 2026

Montserrat Monastery and Basilica

Montserrat is a must see. The Basilica is impressive, beautiful, holy and much more! The views from the monastery are stunning. Really worth the time. Our guide Francisco was top notch, giving us historical perspectives that can only come from a lot of reading and memorization. One of the best guides I have had the pleasure of meeting! Try to attend mass if possible, it’s very reverent, holy, moving and much more.

My college-aged daughter...

My college-aged daughter and I were glad we booked this during our time in Barcelona. Fun to get outside of the city, rub elbows with people from around the world, and enjoy some luxurious scenery. The boat ride between towns was a highlight of the day. Guides were attentive and made everything super easy. Only regret was not coming equipped to swim in the warm waters of Tossa Del Mar! Not sure what we were thinking!
