My Review
This tour comes highly recommended. An excellent value for the money; you won't be sorry if you book it. Our guide was fluent in English, intelligent, humorous, patient with my frequent idiotic and annoying questions, informative, extremely well versed in the history of our destinations and a very safe driver.

I have read reviews by other travelers and was surprised to see the occasional complaint that the tour company was basically providing a transportation service. I would say that this is a product of one's expectations. Yes, it is true that the guide does not lead you around town by the nose, but who wants that anyway? We had ample opportunity to ask questions. Our guide gave us a walking map of Girona highlighting certain can't-miss attractions. I appreciated the recommendations and sought out those that sounded intriguing, but basically I followed my own path.

I was so satisfied with my tour that I booked an excursion to Montserrat for my last day in Barcelona. My review of that itinerary would be the same as above.
