A lovely day in Monserrat

We had a wonderful outing this week with Antonio. It was like spending the day with a friend. He was determined to show us the best views and points of interest at Montserrat. It turned out to be a slightly cool and cloudy day, making for an even more interesting backdrop- and comfortable touring weather. Not only was Antonio knowledgeable and informative about the sites, but he was patient and attentive as we browsed the amazing food vendors and gift shops as well. He took us into a village on our way back, to a quaint little restaurant where we all had lunch together. It was an amazing way to spend the day.

Amazing Trip to Costa Brava

We went on a private tour with Antonio to Costa Brava. It was absolutely amazing! Antonio is a personable, knowledgeable guide and was very flexible with the possible itineraries. He was very focused on our enjoyment and satisfaction. His recommendations were also spot on. We would wholeheartedly recommend Antonio to anyone who is considering a day trip to Costa Brava. Definitely a 5-star experience!!!

Amazing Experience - Highly Recommend

My husband and I had a wonderful day exploring the Costa Brava with Antonio. It was so nice not to have to rent a car and chart our course through roads and towns that were unfamiliar to us. We just sat back, relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful towns and beaches that we visited. Although we went during the high season (July) Antonio took us to a few places that not a lot of tourists find on their own, so it felt authentic and intimate. Also, Antonio has a wealth of knowledge about the history of Catalonia and we learned a ton! We would happily go on another tour with him again!

A Perfect Day in Costa Brava

Antonio promptly picked us up at our apartment in a roomy, newer SUV. We told him we wanted a relaxed day with a lot of walking, a lunch at a good restaurant, and to see some new sights. We have been to Costa Brava many times but this was our friend’s first visit. Antonio formulated the perfect outing, two hikes in different areas, a few sights pointed out by car, a relaxed lunch with great food at a beachfront restaurant, and a visit to a wonderfully maintained medieval town that was not overrun with tourists. Antonio was super knowledgeable and shared information about other areas my friend wanted to visit some day. Very friendly and personable. We simply had the perfect day. Priceless.
