Pau took care of everything. He knew exactly when and where we needed to be to beat the crowds, as well was ready to handle any fees necessary and to interpret when needed . Great information throughout the tour and very friendly with our group of 6. His relaxed manner proved to be just what we needed. He always walked further to get the car and accompanied us to any areas uncertain.
This was a fun day of exploring the communities outside of Barcelona. We enjoyed the small village, medieval town with walls and local churches. The lunch was exceptional. Try the snails they were fabulous. The sausage very tasty and service was quick and everything done as expected. Good table wines as well! Pau was a great friendly, experienced tour guide with a good sense of humor. Highly recommend off the beaten path
This was the best experience with Viator to date. Our guide Rau was curtious, friendly, accomodating and a true local every place we toured. He was very knowledgable about the history and current focuses of Catelonia. We could spend another three days with him if we had the time. Well worth the cost.... Thank you Pau!
Pau was an amazing tour guide. He took us to the most beautiful places and was kind enough to serve as our personal photographer.
Ramona was a fantastic guide! She took us to all the great sites and shared history and culture of Barcelona. This tour was worth its weight in gold. It would have taken us hours and hours to do the research and planning. We truly were with an expert.
Tour was amazing. Everything what we expected. And Pedro our tour guide was fantastic. Would highly recommend going on this site seeing tour if your going to visit Barcelona
IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL TRIP. WE HAD AN OUTSTNDING GUIDE PAOLO READY TO HELP US ALL THE TIME WITH A COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HISTORY OF THE PLACES WE VISITED. I NEVER THOUGHT THAT THESE VILLAGES WOULD BE SO NICE. WE HAD A WONDERFUL LUNCH WITH A BEAUTIFUL LAKE FULL OF DUCKS.
Pau was fabulous. We had so much fun and knowledge. I would recommend him and that tour to all friends and family. We will be back.
With what an amazing experience to be somewhere that Charlemagne and Napoleon have also been! Our guide Pedro, was very informative, and patient with us as we were taking our time to look around at everything and take lots of pictures! We had a great day!
We had a wonderful time with Pedro as we explored several villages. He was very informative on each village. Our ride was comfortable and lunch delicious with a view of the lake. We highly recommend this tour.
