What are people saying about Barcelona

Betty_O, Apr 2026

Wonderful tour!

This was an exceptionally good tour. I had been to the Dalí museum years ago and thought I knew a fair amount about him and his art. This was still one of the most informative tours I’ve taken at any museum. Luis combined his knowledge and passion for Dalí into a story that would capture anyone’s attention. I can’t say enough about how much I learned or how much I enjoyed it. Girona is absolutely lovely and we had enough time to get a good overview of the city and a bit of free time as well. I would highly recommend this tour!

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

Raul_G, Apr 2026

North Carolina/ Nebraska US

We loved this tour to a charming little town in the French countryside, including a visit to L’église Saint-Louis, as well as to the beautiful country of Andorra, in Andorra la Vella. Although it’s a 12-hour tour, the frequent stops made the day feel relaxed and enjoyable, and the time passed quickly. I highly recommend visiting between April 24 and May 3. The weather was perfect—sunny, with a refreshing breeze coming down from the mountain peaks. It truly felt like a dream. Our tour guide, Laura, was patient, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She did an exceptional job guiding us in both Spanish and English. I would highly recommend this tour and especially Laura as a guide.

Montserrat & Cogwheel Train, Gourmet Wine Tasting & Tapas/Lunch

Kathleen_L, Apr 2026

Limited WC Time

Montserrat is amazingly beautiful. Our tour guide Ivan is very caring. keeping an eye to ensure the entire group members followed. The only sad thing was, one member, the daughter of a mother daughter team complained there was not enough free time for her to walk up the hill. Then Ivan rescheduled the one hour free time ahead, and moved the visit of mother Mary statue later after the free time. The line at early afternoon after the free time was just as long in late morning. After we finished the mother Mary statue visit, we were rushed to head to the coach, and not allowed us to use the WC en route. At the coach terminal, when some of us ran to the WC, he kind of followed us and yelled out loud and clear to get us out because the coach would soon be leaving. I felt it was unfair when the tour guide rescheduled the itinerary to accomodate one of 21 of us for her free time, and restricted at least 4 of us to hurry our mother nature toilet needs.

Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery: Tour, Transfers & Basilica

It's an easy way to reach...

It's an easy way to reach and see Montserrat. Guide was good and did some of the background history during the bus ride. Met the guide at 9 and the bus came. Had a walk/talk for 45 min or so after arrival, then you were on your own for a little over 2 hours free. Took the incline up and walked around the trails. Could have used an extra hour to see a couple of the other attraction like the Immersive Experience or Museum and have time for eating. Had a 1:15 timed entrance to the basilica. It was a little rush to tour it and make the walk back to the bus by 2:00.

Medieval Three Villages Small Group Day Trip from Barcelona

Candice_L, Apr 2026

A Tour not to be missed!

This was one of the best tours I have taken in Barcelona. A must do! The towns we visited were all charming & each very different. Especially enjoyed the suspension bridge in Rupit. Alex, our guide, was the best! He was extremely knowledgeable about all of the places we visited. However, he also made the bus ride, incredibly interesting and informative as he explained a lot about the history of Spain, both in ancient times and in modern day. This made the time aboard the bus go quickly. His recommendations for things to see and do in each town was spot on. Including his recommendations for bakeries and shops to purchase cheeses & other local products.

Monserrat is beautiful....

Monserrat is beautiful. This tour included transportation there and a short tour. We chose the option that included the Black Madonna. We had some free time to take the funicular to the top and walk around a little bit. Tour came back to Barcelona early afternoon. Beware, the pickup in the morning is outside of the train station. We were waiting inside and almost missed the tour.

Great Time

I would recommend Hernando he was a fantastic person and guide for the day. We went to three areas out of Barcelona. They were all unique places to see and enjoy . I enjoyed the old city and going to the small village where I recommend having a Sangria or the Gelato. But eating at the restaurant on the Mediterranean Sea was quite good. Great time great

Two Countries in One Day: Spain & France

From medieval magic to coastal dreams…

Our guide Giulio made this day absolutely unforgettable. From start to finish, the tour was seamless, engaging, and so thoughtfully curated. Giulio struck the perfect balance of being incredibly knowledgeable while also warm, friendly, and genuinely fun to spend the day with. You can tell he truly loves what he does, and it made all the difference. Girona was stunning, rich with history and charm, but the real surprise was Collioure—an idyllic, postcard-perfect fishing village that completely stole our hearts. The colorful buildings, coastal views, and relaxed atmosphere felt like something out of a dream. My husband and I had the best time—laughing, exploring, and just soaking in every moment. This tour was easily one of the highlights of our trip, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly. If you get the chance to go with Giulio, don’t think twice—you’re in for an incredible day.

Great tour, beautiful sites, fun hike.

This is worth the time. Our guide was great. Pick us up at the hotel treated us like family the entire time. We chose to do the initial tours first then took the train to the top and did the hike down. I suggest doing at least part of the hike, it’s worth it.

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

Amy_M, Apr 2026

A great day on the sea

We had such a great experience on this kayaking trip. Our guide, Marc was awesome and not only was great for guiding us kayaking, but also shared some of the history of Catalonia. I had read some reviews saying the lunch wasn’t great, but we found the sandwiches to be large, tasty, and filling. We enjoyed the free time after the kayaking and loved finding a restaurant for ice cream and a drink while enjoying the beautiful view.

Stephanie_R, Nov 2025

Amazing Day

Pedro’s tour through Gaudí’s masterpieces was magical—knowledgeable, passionate, and perfectly paced. From Sagrada Família’s nature-inspired wonders to Park Güell’s mosaic gems, he shared stories that brought history alive, and kept us engaged throughout this wonderful experience.
