I always wanted to go to a medieval old town with castle like structures and roads . Girona is just that . We went inside the church which was massive . The town is amazing . Great for pics and learning . Costa Bravo felt like we were in Santorini. Amazing restaurants and scenery. Bring your bathing suit. Stephan is a very personable and knowledgeable person . We hit it off from the get go when he picked us up in a nice Mercedes van . Everything super VIP . Very patient . He gave us water and free time to do what we wanted . We couldn’t ask for a better get away from the city . Don’t think twice . Just book this tour . You will not be disappointed . Everything was TOP NOTCH !!
We went out with Stefan for a great visit to a traditional wine maker and farm house before a trip to the beach and then Tossa de Mar. Stefan was superb, having a wide range of knowledge about the local area, wildlife and culture. I'd recommend this trip to those wanting to escape Barcelona and see a more rural and laid back view of the Costa Brava.
