Awesome day at Costa Brava!
We had a fantastic day on the trip to Costa Brava. The journey was not too long, the group was small, and the guide was excellent. The seaside views are absolutely stunning. We traveled with teenage kids, and we all enjoyed the day. This trip is a really great way to see a bit of Spain beyond Barcelona. Would recommend it without hesitation.
Good value & perfect day trip!
We wanted to see more of Spain than just Barcelona, so we booked the trip to Andorra online. It was an easy process, and the tour was good. We loved it. The transport was comfortable, we were picked up on time, and the guide was knowledgeable. We got lots of insider tips, especially for shopping. It was definitely worth the money!
Worth visiting Montserrat!
This was an amazing trip, and Marianne is a great guide! She is very knowledgeable. Montserrat is worth visiting, and we managed to see the statue of the Black Madonna. The transfer and the itinerary were both well organized. The monastery is very special, and the ride on a cogwheel train was super cool. Great day and worth the trip!
