Very fresh and interesting tour. - We truly enjoyed the tour of Girona with our guide. She lives there and was very familiar with many of the customs and history of what had taken place and what she had experienced. It was very lengthy and enjoyable, and we got to see the key points of the city. She also gave us tips on things to do and see in our own time. I would recommend it to most anyone.

Informative walk around old town - Anna gave a solid overview of the main sites in old town Girona with a good balance to the various culture and communities. Hint: do your homework to get the timeline down before your tour to make the most of it.

Perfect - We booked this visit last minute and what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be. Our guide, Mike, met us right at the appointed spot and immediately impressed everyone. A native of Girona, he was able to mix the scholastic, historical background of Girona with his own personal insights of the town and area. For three hours he took us everywhere with knowledge and humor and relatability. I cannot recommend him enough and would certainly suggest anyone looking at this trip to book it. Could not have been a better experience and overall day in Girona. Wonderful town, wonderful guide, just a great time.
