Very interesting tour of Girona

We had a great tour with Anatoli. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Girona has a very interesting history and is well worth a visit.

This was a terrific experience. Go hungry! There is a lot to eat and it's good! We can't wait to try to cook paella at home.

Too expensive and uncomfortable. would not recommend this company

Our Tour Guide/Driver was very good and knowledgeable. Our complaint was with the car that the tour company sent . It was very small and we had 4 adults. VERY uncomfortable and we were packed in, One person had to sit up front and 3 averaged size adults in the back. The cost of $659.76 was Not worth it. Extremely disappointing and was not a good start of the day. The Tour was supposed to be 5 hours and was not. By the time the we were picked up and dropped off it was about 4 hours. Our other private tours sent a small van (mercedes) and was alot less expensive.

Ancient Girona

Luis was generous with his time and knowledge. He enhanced our visit with modifications perfectly tailored to our sensibilities.
