This is an interesting day trip out of Barcelona. 9am to 3pm. It takes one hour by comfortable coach to this pink jagged mountain range. There is a Benedictine Abbey on top of this mountain. There is a funicular (train that travel along the slope of the mountain) to the peak and to a chapel futher downhill. Cable car and... More

We really enjoyed our visit of Sagrada Familia, it was a define must see site. Whilst we did not mind that the guide which was suppose to be in English the tour was in both Spanish and English, this did ruffle some feathers in our group. The guide was great and enabled us to get an insight into the life... More

I would like to explain my experience with two different tour groups in Barcelona this week. I booked tours online via a booking service called City Discovery. I didn't realize it at the time, but City Discovery is just a portal which subcontracts the tours out to the actual providers of the service. On Day 1, I had booked 'The... More

The trip was disappointing as we weren't given enough time to do anything. There was a lot more information given in Spanish than the subsequent English translation. Another hour would have been reasonable for the price paid for the trip. This would have enabled the group to either go on some of the walks (even the shortest one) and return... More

After reading from Tripadvisor the glowing reviews of SpanishTrails tour guides, I was looking forward to booking with them. On their website it states that the Monserrat Day tour was $95/ head with 2 people minimum. Imagine my disappointment upon talking to a person named JR, when he said that the tour would not be possible since we were only... More

The problem is with Julia travel. An all English tour never happened. The first two to Toledo and Segovia were in Spanish and English so everything took twice as long. The third was in Barcelona and three languages were spoken. The Toledo guide walked so fast and several people were rendered ill. She would run up a hill and we... More

Do not waste your money!! It is a beautiful place but on the Julia tours you are not there long enough to do anything. We were told our guide would get us in the church ahead of the crowds. The guide was no where to be found once we arrived. This was a total waste of money and time. If... More

What was supposed to be a guided tour of the Sagrada Familia turned out to be less than what we expected. There were two groups combined which took up about an hour and a half to organize. Then we had about 40 people in our group..hard to hear, tour guide was unknowledged, and very disorganized!!!! Very disappointing! We ended up... More
