5 stars for the 2.5 hour tour--ask for Christian - I highly recommend this tour. It covers a lot in a short amount of time. Christian, our guide, is a proud and enthusiastic Catalonian. He expertly explained Catalonia/Aragon's role in history, Barcelona's history especially beginning in the mid 19th century. He showed us two important gaudi buildings, and he knows all the fun and gritty details. The same in the gothic quarter--it was very entertaining, and he gave us 10 minutes to wander in the Boqueria.

intense and engaging - It was an intense experience for a Beginner because wearing a mask, snorkel, and flippers takes some practice and you have to do that in seawater that is very salty and agile. But if you get past that, the reward is big. The view underwater is beautiful and interesting and the Guide Freddy is very patient, friendly, competent, and enthusiastic. It shows interesting places and the outing also involves swimming to an island where other surprises await you (we could feel a starfish and a sea urchin). It was quite tiring with the current and the wind, but it was very satisfying. The Guide forwarded a whole series of photos afterwards. Also the walk there (about 15 minutes) was very interesting. Unforgettable experience.

Brilliant tour with crystal clear water - We were really well looked after by Freddie who took us on a tour of the local area before snorkelling. He made sure were were all happy once in the water & explained the ecosystem & what we might find. The children loved it especially when Freddie found a starfish for them to hold.

Fantastic trip with an excellent guide - Thank you so much for a wonderful trip. A little walking your about the history of the old town of Marseille was a bonus. Our children loved snorkelling & we it will be the highlight of our stay here.

I finally got to snorkel in the Mediterranean! - Great snorkel trip. Such a beautiful coastline and snorkeling over to a small island off the coast. Tour guide was knowledgeable and looked after all five of us on the snorkel trip. Not for a beginner snorkeler or someone who is not a good swimmer as the water can get rough and the swim to the island is long. Had a terrific time and even though I was by myself, quickly made friends with the other four people I snorkeled with.

I took the hike since boating cancelled - I didn't get to do this experience. I received a phone call to say it would be cancelled but I could do a hike and swim with snorkelling instead. I accepted this and eventually got the 20€ difference refund. The hike itself was beautiful and I loved the swim. It was the guide Gregory's first time and we took wrong routes in the way down and walked much more than was necessary (arriving at the water 11:50 so it took I think more than 2 hours to walk down and less than 45 minutes to walk back up). Apparently we should have followed the yellow line and we had been following the 3 yellow dots. Myself and several of the group chose not to walk back with Gregory. He was a friendly guide, just not very experienced and not good at time management.

False representation of tour - The itinerary or the summary shared is false representation. Tour involved walking around city centre itself on foot and swim/snorkel spots being shown.
Tour guide told us that it involves 200m of swimming to another tiny island (across the water current) which has not been mentioned at all and quite risky if not clear.
When we asked the tour guide, we were told that swimming was a requisite.
However knowing swimming and swimming across a current to another island with no floats being provided is ridiculous and misrepresenting the entire tour name.

Dishonest seller - Activity which was canceled by the seller at the last minute by telephone. I made a claim to be reimbursed and they refused to reimburse me because the seller certified that I was present but I reaffirm that I did not attend this activity!

Badyl organized:... - Badyl organized: spontanious change of starting time, no visible time structure
Food preferences and shoe size not considered. The food was minimaly offered, Soda wasn't given at all.
We were led to a public beach, where I could have gone myself. Poor sealife at the snorkeling spot. 5 hours tour was promised, but we did not a lot of snorkling (a lot of chilling time) . Not worth that much money.
