An Amazing Experience with Kairos Barcelona Tours! Don't Miss Out!! - Kairos Barcelona Tours- Kayak & Snorkel Tour with Lunch and Tossa de Mar Walk-about was a highlight of our trip to Barcelona. Matias was the ultimate guide. He made our group feel welcome, was informative, providing excellent instruction for kayaking and many details about the nature and development of Costa Brava. We explored the coastal cliffs from below and caves only accessible from the water, viewed hikers on the Cami de Ronda, snorkeled in a cove near a hidden beach, discovered octopus are very curios (about underwater cameras) and returned to the old-town for a wonderful meal and walk-about. This trip was so much fun!!! E&K

Wonderful trip to Tossa de mar - It was a wonderful experience. Matias was a very good guide, explaining things around throughout the trip. The kayaking experience was very good, going around the coves and inside couple of caves. The cliff jumping was another highlight and snorkeling felt awesome. It was my first time snorkeling and I absolutely loved it. The lunch was also very good, had a three course meal of local cuisine. Then we explored the town of Tossa de mar, which was beautiful. Overall the experience was a memorable one!!!

Spectacular Costa Brava coastline & terrific Tossa De Mar - Other than the spectacular Costa Brava coastline, the most memorable experience was our tour guide/owner/operator, Matias. Matias is friendly, has very good English, and has excellent knowledge of the local area. The stand out for me was his level of safety. Before we left Barcelona, Matias explained that the kayaking may not go ahead due to the conditions on the water - however he would make his final decision once he arrived at Tossa De Mar. Matias provided us with alternatives: plan B which involved a long hike and plan C which involved a shorter hike. He kept us well informed throughout the day and took numerous photos which he provides free of charge (you don't really need your camera). Fortunately we were able to kayak and that was a fabulous experience (including the snorkeling). The mask/snorkel and wet shoes are provided. The lunch was delicious especially the seafood paella. It was in a lovely location overlooking the beach and medieval castle. After lunch we had 2 hours of free time to explore the old town/shops/castle. Matias provided us with enough information so you could decide how you wanted to spend your time. The transport (van) was comfortable and Matias is a very safe driver. I highly recommend this tour. The Costa Brava coastline is spectacular and Tossa De Mar is a stunning town steeped with history.

Unmissable tour of Tossa dl Mar with the people of Kairos - The tour organized by the people of Kairos around Tossa de Mar is simply a 10. There is no other more synthetic way to describe it. From the beginning to the end (almost 12 hours in total) there was an excellent atmosphere in the group. People of different nationalities, ages and cultures but we had in common the desire to have a unique outdoor experience. And boy was it achieved! The sports activities (kayaking and snorkeling) are incredible. I really saw and did things I had never done in my life. The food in the restaurant (the paella is highly recommended) is spectacular and the subsequent tour of the town is also very nice. Separate paragraph for the guide (Matías) who is very professional and warm, essential to keep the group motivated and in a good mood. Really, a visit to Barcelona is not completely complete without taking the Kairos tour of Tossa de Mar! 10/10.

Amazing first time exploring Tossa De Mar - Let me start off by saying this was the best tour I’ve ever done! Matias was very knowledgeable about the town, culture, and the sea. We got to kayak into sea caves, snorkeled, had lunch at a local restaurant in Tossa De Mar, then we later had free time to explore the town. Matias took plenty of pictures which was great because we got to really live in the present moment. I highly recommend!

The perfect day on the Mediterranean! - This was my version of a perfect day. There was balanced mix of adventure and relaxation! I paddled a kayak into a sea cave, snorkeled in a beautiful Mediterranean cove, and even saw an octopus! Lunch was delicious, with Matias giving us spot on recommendations for the best local dishes along the way. Matias was a great guide! He is charismatic and knowledgeable. He took awesome pictures of us all day and made us feel safe and supported on our adventure. This is also a small local business that Matias runs himself! If you're the kind of person who feels weird booking a trip with a big travel company and you want to spend money directly supporting the area you're a tourist in, then this is a great tour for you! It's worth every penny and I would do this tour again in a second!
