We had a lot of fun and learned a lot. - It was a great tour. We had a lot of fun and we learned a lot of interesting things about Gerona. Our tour guide was Ona (not sure how to spell her name). She was great - very knowledgeable, easy to communicate. We definitely recommend this tour.

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.
