Myrianna went over and beyond as a tour guide. Her English is excellent and described the history of the sights clearly with enthusiasm. She was patient and considerate when we misunderstood the meeting time after visiting Sitges. Claudio was an excellent safe driver and the tour was smooth. It was a very pleasurable day!

We're glad to visit these two spots in a sunny day! The tour guide is very nice and patient, not only answered the questions about the trip but also recommended other places to go in Barcelona! This is the kind of traveling experience we want to have :) happy and fulfilling ~

Excellent tour- time in Montserrat to look around and do what you like and time in Sitges to do the same. Nice bus - and your guide Miri was very knowledgeable and took her time guiding us thru each place.

Miri was our tour guide for Barcelona. She was knowledgeable of the Spanish history, easy going, and lots of fun. She had a great sense of humour and showed care in her group. I would definitely recommend this day trip as Montserrat has a peaceful Catalan culture, with lots to do for the day. Sitges is a fun, coastline city with a wide variety of restaurants and cafes. Well worth it. Lucy
