Tour of the Spanish Pyrenees - Great experience and very happy with our Guide Steve. Niche level groups especially for ours with children that could interact made all the difference to the extended time frame.

Trip to the Pyrenees - Daviv added a lot of context and history to the places we visited, which was enjoyable. We also took different ways to and from our final destination to maximize the number of places visited.

And the Angels Sing - Sergio was a wonderful guide! Also loved the small group-much preferred to the large group tours. It was a full day with a mountaintop picnic. Would have liked more time in Nuria, but overall was a special trip! My friend sang Ava Maria in a small church with only us there. It was goosebumps magical!

Fantastic experience in the Pyrenees - What a fantastic tour. Our tour guide Rod is so knowledgeable and entertaining. He had us imagining ourselves in medieval times as we walked around the town of Vic then took us too the Pyrenees mountains where the views were absolutely breathtaking! Rod took great care of all of us and went out of his way to ensure that we all had a great experience. I would definitely tour with him and this company again!

Not to be missed - Great trip and beautiful scenery. Lovely group of people, and a wonderful tour guide Berta that made the visit totally not to be missed. It’s a long drive, but a must do to get out of the city and experience something else. You’ll visit a couple medieval towns as well thst are just beautiful. Lots of history as well that makes you want to know more.

Explore Catalunya- Highly Recommended - Steve is one of the best tour guides I’ve been with. He is well informed on the history of the cities we explore and extremely engaging. He even ensured my safety on my first hiking journey (I know I was dreading it at the moment, but sooo glad I went through it as the waterfalls were worth it and my legs got stronger). It’s a must to at least go on one of their day trips

Interesting, refreshing and enjoyable trip! - Had an enjoyable trip to Vic & trekking at Pyrenees. Rod was very knowledgeable with history and great at explaining the tour, story telling etc on the way, and helping us taking great pictures. We appreciated the free time he gave us at the Pyrenees. Rod is a good driver with comfortable vehicle. We would recommend this tour to others.

Great Landscape/ wonderful places BUT the experience depends on the guide and she was terrible without any knowledge.. - The guide lady was extremely unexperienced and send me on non existing trails/ tracks. Before she was Not able to answer simple questions in the surrounding. Very, very poor ... even her driving was "terrible". The landscape and Vic, as well as the roman town next to Valle de Nuria was beautiful. Without such bad Guide IT could have been awesome. Never ever had such bad unexperienced, not caring lady as a guide. She shouldn't do that kind of job and was even arguing with me about "the track". If I could rate no points, that's it. Great tour, but really not with that lady (Daria? *forgot her name!!! (tour on 21/03/24) Also was only talking to the Canadian woman and did not really cared about the others. No knowledge and ending almost every sentence with "I'll show/ explain you later."
