Girona is calling you… - My wife and I just returned from a beautiful day exploring some charming medieval villages, hiking up and down into an inactive volcano crater as well enjoying a relaxing lakeside walk. Our tour was well organized by Gironaexperience tours & transfers. Our driver Alex and our guide Eduardo (both fluent in English) were our joyful companions for this full day tour. Eduardo was a font of local knowledge and folklore and kept us both informed and entertained throughout our day together. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this company. You will not be disappointed. Spending some extra time in the charming city of Girona is also highly recommended, and Gironaexperience can also provide you with a number of in town tours to round out your time here. Have fun and enjoy your stay.

A most excellent tour! - Our guide was knowledgable and very well spoken. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him enjoying the beautiful scenery and learn of the history and culture of the region. We enjoyed a delicious lunch of regional cuisine after an interesting hike up and in the volcanoe crater.

Not to be missed - The whole trip was exceptional. Loved Bessalu, Santa Pau, walking the reserve and Lake Banyoles. Our guide Eduardo was knowledgeable and informative. A wonderful day.

Great combination of experiences. - We liked going to Besalu, especially in the cool and quiet part of the morning. We also enjoyed getting out to the volcano and seeing views of Catalonia. Found the history and political movements very interesting.

Perfect Day - From beginning to end our day was perfect. My husband and I were the only people on the tour (it’s out of season) but Alex didn’t cancel of which we were grateful. Basically, we had a private tour with Alex safely delivering us from stop to stop and Eduardo providing historical facts and information ranging from architectural styles to the Spanish Revolution; we learnt so much. Besalu was beautiful and we arrived well before bus loads of tourists. The walk up the volcano and into the crater to view the chapel was the perfect preparation for lunch which was prepared with plentiful and tasty local produce. Each town had its own charm and plenty of photo opportunities. If you want to get out into the country and wander in beautiful century old towns and enjoy some peace and beautiful scenery - even a glimpse of the Mediterranean Sea - this trip has to be at the top of your list. Thank you Alex and Eduardo for a truly wonderful day.

Relax and let someone show you Catalonia history - Great way to relax and see some of Catalonia outside of Girona. We saw several historical towns and sights. Eduardo provided insight and historical info along the way. Thumbs up.

A Wonderful Visit - We greatly enjoyed the day we spent with Eduardo and Carme touring Besalú, Banyoles, and an ancient volcano. The day gave us a glimpse into the Pre-Pyrenees area: Besalú and other medieval towns were charming; the ancient volcano was interesting; and the lake at Banyoles was very picturesque. We stopped at a local restaurant with excellent local food for lunch. All in all, a wonderful day!

Begur, Banyoles Lake - Loved the climb to the top then bottom of the volcano. Great tour with Eduardo. Banyoles Lake was amazing!

Breath taking town and get ready to hike for the volcano - Absolutely fantastic and an amazing discovery! The bridge is really cool and it transport you back in time! The town of Besalu was really cool to walk through, parking is available but limited on the out skirts of the town. The volcano no longer had a church in the middle of it, but it was the only volcano we found under this name. It was quit the hike up, not for the weary. Bring water!

Fantastic Perfect Tour and Day! - Me and my partner Aaron had a fantastic time on this trip. Excellent communication prior to departure and the lovely new air conditioned minibus was there to meet us with Carmen driving us for the day and Dylan as our guide. The whole tour from start to finish was a perfect day. We loved the medieval villages and Dylan as tour guide spoke excellent English and was really friendly and knowledgeable. The hike up to the volcano and into the crater was steep and I had to take my time but Dylan and the small group were patient, it was a very hot and humid day!!! We went into a volcano crater! Just 😲! Stop for lunch was good. None of the day was rushed and the lake at the end was a beautiful end to the day. There was only 4 people on this tour and the other couple were from Australia and lovely to meet them too. Would recommend to all nature and history lovers. Our favourite tour of the holidays. Many thanks to Carmen and Dylan!!!
