We had our guide, Alber, for two days. Day 1 was Parc Guelle and Sagrada Familia and Day 2 was 1/2 day to Montserrat and a Cava tour and tasting. He was exceptional!!! Knowledgable is an understatement - he can talk about anything and has deep understandings about the culture and influences of it all. He handled our group of 19 with expertise, with ages from 11 to 83 that's quite a challenge. I would recommend him with 100% confidence. As for the company, bookings were great and the busses clean and nice, with excellent and accommodating drivers. Thanks, Alber!!!! The Larrauri's
