Xavier was an awesome tour guide. The medieval town tour with In Out Barcelona was amazing! There were only two of us so it felt like a private tour. We got to see the beautiful countryside of Catalonia and see the incredible medieval towns. I really recommend this tour if you want to get away from the city. He also picks you up from your hotel! The only downside is Xavier doesn’t speak English that clearly but you can ask him to repeat again.

This experience was fantastic and Xavi was a wonderful guide. We were able to see areas that are hard to experience without a car and a guide. Xavi had incredible historical and cultural insight that really rounded out the stunning scenery of the Catalan countryside. Highly recommend!
