What a treat!!! Simply Outstanding! - This is the highlight of our Barcelona stay. Having been here before twice, we decided to get out of the hustle and bustle city and what a pleaant surprise for us. Mariela, our guide, is just amazing. She's so knowledgeable with a passion for this trip. The hike was so amazing and we have shifted some serious calories 😅. The views were just out of this world. We finished our tour with the most scrumptious 3 course Catalunya food with good wine and liquor. Thank you Mariela for making this such a memorable day for us xx

Village and hike exceeded our expectations - My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our hike with guides Mariela and Sam. We discussed the history of the area from the days of Franco to the present and learned much about Catalunya during our van ride. The village was lovely, breakfast and lunch were delicious and we loved learning about and tasting the traditional foods, and the hike was really nice with absolutely gorgeous views. It was a pleasure to spend the day with our guides, who by the end of the day felt like friends to us.
