Excellent tour with exceptional guide

Michael_P, Apr 2025

Eduardo provided exceptional service on this extraordinary day of exploration. His knowledge of Roman and local history brought a thousand years of this culture clearly into our focus and he tied our experiences today into the region’s rich fabric of civilization and culture. Bravo Eduardo!

Marcel was a great tour...

Khang_T, Mar 2025

Marcel was a great tour guide. Unfortunately it rained all day and was foggy but the tour was very good. Highly recommend.

The vehicle was way too...

Lisa_L, Jan 2025

The vehicle was way too small for four passengers. Language was a huge barrier our guide did not speak good English. The salt mine tour was not in English either very frustrating.!

Barcelona / Salt Mountain and Montserrat Cardona

Carol_D, Sep 2024

This was a fabulous tour. We have been on dozens of tours in last few years and Ramon is by far our favorite tour guide. I would recommend this comprehensive tour to anyone who wants to see and learn about the history of this area. Ramon was so knowledgeable and had so much information to share with us. For the price of the tour, all the history we covered it was well worth the money and time. Ramon was an excellent teacher who also loves his job. His excitement is easy to see when he speaks of the history of this area. We loved it!!!

The best kept secret of Spain!

Our guide Ramone was fantastic! He was kind and welcoming and very knowledgeable on all historical aspects of the tour. The views were breathtaking and lunch in the quaint town of Cardona was perfect. Montserrat is a must see! Such beautiful country and we saw so much! Best tour guide!
