Great walk - Ignacio is a very pleasant, fun guide and has great knowledge about the mushrooms and plants of the region. We had an incredible day, we learned a lot and we recommend the walk to everyone who visits Girona.

Walk on the wild side of Girona - Ignacio is a charming young man with an great interest in nature. He has knowledge and understanding of this beautiful mountain woodland. We discovered many edible plants and mushrooms. His dog ika was a treat you felt immersed in nature with a real friend. There are many unusual stories that accompany the forest tour. It's sad we have lost the knowledge of plants, original artisan trades and creatures. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. Don't expect a woodland feast always as nature decides what you get. We intend to visit ignacio again for other activities.

Amazing Unforgettable experience - This experience is one you cannot miss! It exceeded every expectation I had, despite the rainy weather. This was a solo excursion and Ignacio was amazing. He is very knowledgeable about the local area, flora and fauna. I felt safe the entire time and learnt so much, even bringing home some wild asparagus and mushrooms. Thank you for an unforgettable experience! 🌎🌿❤️

Perfect plan for autumn in the mountains of Madrid - Fantastic day in Cercedilla learning about plants, mushrooms and wildlife. Everything that Nacho explained to us was very interesting and useful. Highly recommended

Fantastic, unique and bespoke experience in Girona! - I found Ignacio for my best friend's bachelor party because he didn't want a typical 'stag'. Ignacio was incredible for our entire group - which included 10 guys of all ages and fitness levels. He really worked to make sure it was special for my friend and created a special tour just for us, which allowed us to learn a lot and see a lot of the Girona area (the mountains, the forest and the sea). On top of the education we got about the natural world, he really built the tour around us and the fact that it was a bachelor party too - with little surprises built throughout the day (like local wine and food in the middle of the forest!) - he even made a video of our day afterwards for us to remember it by! I can't recommend Ignacio enough! He's incredibly knowledgeable, accommodating and an over all friendly guy who is passionate about nature and what he does. I am definitely coming back for mushroom season to do a tour with him again!

A different but good experience - A nice amble through woods around Girona, I was only person on trip. Slow tourism, away from hustle and bustle, exposed to nature, learning about plants and their uses, finished off with nice local tastes. Knoekedgeablr guide

To try without hesitation - It was an excellent experience to discover nature around Girona. Ignacio has a great personality and knowledge he shares with love and authenticity. Also, his level of English is native and allowed my family to fully communicate with him ! I can only recommend
