Fun all day walking history tour with amazing views. - Our guide Pere and driver were first rate. Both approachable and nice. Pere was beyond knowledgeable and an excellent storyteller and teacher. No notes or script flawlessly moving between Spanish and English for our mixed group of 5. Van was clean and well air conditioned. I would take the same tour again with Pere.

Beautiful scenery along the Costa Brava with the excellent tour guide — Eduardo! - Eduardo was a fabulous tour guide. He knew so much and really seemed to enjoy his time touring the costa Brava. Carmen was an excellent driver. We covered a lot of area and saw beautiful sites. It was nice to do the Costa Brava without having to rent a car.

More than just Girona - Our guide Julia's enthusiasm and depth of knowledge were a great help. It was a well run trip with wonderful venues that we were unlikely to have found by ourselves. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wishes to see more of this scenic part of Catalunya. Also, Julia's English was absolutely fluent, which was a great help.

High quality tour packed with great views of the ocean and detailed tour of medieval villages. - Mike was an amazing tour guide. He had a wealth of information to give as far as detailed history of all the towns we visited but also the history about local customs and even information about Spain in general. He was very attentive for the entire day and gave an excellent quality tour from beginning to end. I would highly recommend Mike as a tour guide and Carme,our driver, was awesome too.

Made our trip and more! - We are visiting the Costa Brava without a car. After visiting Girona we made 2-night reservation in Begur. Instead of taking taxi we decided to join the Girona Experience tour that includes Begur. Understanding our situation Alex and Eduardo adjusted the tour route and picked us up from our hotel in Girona and after a day of touring beautiful towns of Costa Brava they dropped us at our hotel in Begur. They didn’t need to do this but they did! It shows how much they care that they want everyone to have a great time touring the area without or with minimal concerns. They took time, never hurried but with just perfect cadence to explain the history, legends and the beauty of the Costa Brava. We highly recommend Alex & Eduardo, a dynamic duo! Thank you!

She was very knowledgeable of the history and culture of the region and explained everything in interesting and humorous ways.
