Why should I go to Costa Brava? Because it's one of the most romantic, gorgeous, unspoiled stretches of coast in Europe. Where else, can you drive or walk alongside rugged pink rocks with the teal-colored Mediterranean glimmering below, framed by grand, arabesque pines? Original medieval villages like Peratallada and Pals that looks like a spectacular Hollywood scenery and the genteel horseshoe bays of Llafranc and Calella de Palafrugell are two of the prettiest on the world. In Calella de Palafrugell at the wildest corner of Costa Brava we will spend some free time to taste the exceptional see food or any other meal you like and optional swim on the bluest part of the Mediterranean sea ! I can create a customized tour for you if you have any special requests or if you are more than 6 people and need a larger vehicle !
Inclusions: Free transportation, Guiding throughout the tour

We spent 3 days in Barcelona on a private tour with Barcelona's Best Tour Guide, Feliciano. We visited Montserrat, the wine district, Costa Brava and Barcelona city sights. Feliciano makes you feel just like family. He is warm, kind, funny and so knowledgable with impeccable English. What he doesn't know about the beautiful Catalunya region of Spain is probably not worth knowing. Our experience was so much richer in his hands. Can't wait to go back and again.

I definitely recommending this company and this tour as they are very welcoming and doing a job professionally, During a Pandemic (COVID-19) we have been on a business trip in Spain, France and we have had some free days, so it was interesting for us to able to do this tour or not? We have contacted this company and from the first, we received lots of accurate and to the date information about how to traveling in pandemic in Spain, what documents shall we carry on and … They car was extremely clean and leggy, with safety partition and for keeping the risk as low as possible, they were only us in the car and it was completely private tour. The tour was fantastically organized, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and always wearing a mask and we were finding that he is customizing a tour based on our interests. Extremely worthwhile and unique experience and hope this pandemic ended up soon and everybody can travel easily in the world like before .

We loved our private day tour of Besalu and Girona with Gerard. There are 10 of us, 4 adults and 6 children, ages ranging from 5 to 14. Arranging the tour was easy, communication with BCN Hidden Tours was fast and clear. Gerard helped us decide on a tour that was just right for us. On the day of the tour, Gerard picked us up from our apartment in Barcelona in a comfortable minibus (with a driver). Gerard shared interesting historical tidbits about Barcelona, Girona and Catalonia in general during the drive. Gerard made Besalu and Girona come alive for us - he knows those towns so well! He accommodated our interests and remained flexible with the kids' needs. Gerard is incredibly knowledgeable, speaks 7 languages fluently (his English is perfect!), and clearly loves what he does. He is easy to connect with, both for adults and kids. Overall, just an incredible experience. I very enthusiastically recommend Gerard and BCN Hidden Tours.

We had a lovely day with Pere in Montserrat. He picks you up from Barcelona - in our case our air bnb, which is very convenient. We drove to Montserrat in a comfortable air conditioned mini van. Pere is full of interesting stories about the area and Catalan culture. He then presents three options for the hike. We chose the hardest one. He is an excellent guide - the hike had some climbing involved and we felt completely safe with his expertise. He knows so many legends and tales of the area also. A wonderful day. 100% would recommend. This is the first Tripadvisor review I have ever left and I felt compelled to do so because it was just so excellent. Bring a packed lunch during Covid for a lovely mountain picnic. Thank you Pere!

We traveled with six adults for a 2 day vacation in Barcelona and then a 7 day cruise and back to Barcelona for the trip home. We used Bohigas airport transfer to pick us up at airport, carry us to Hotel. They then picked us up at Hotel to transport us to the cruise ship. They then picked us up from the port after the cruise to take us back to airport. On all three occasions, the service was impeccable!! The drivers were very attentive and courteous. We had alot of bags and all fit very well in the van which was so comfortable we felt like celebrities. Without question, these guys are the REAL DEAL!! If you're planning a trip to Barcelona and need any transport, make sure you have Bohigas airport transfer in your speed dial. I promise you won't be disappointed. I need to mention one thing, they will keep you updated by text. We arrived about 2 hours earlier from our cruise than our scheduled pickup. I just text them that we were at the port and they came to pick us up with 20mins. We were very happy about that. Outstanding!!!!!!!!!

If you're new to Barcelona, and want to get a bird's eye view of the city, then this tour is for you. The electric bikes were state of the art, and felt like a breeze driving it through the mountains as we saw various points overlooking the city. We made our way up to Tibidabo Cathedral, a beautiful historic church overlooking the city. All throughout the drive, we stopped at amazing panoramic views. The tour guide Juan was well versed in the city's history, and answered all of our questions on different locations within the city. All-in all, a great experience to have when the sun is out and you want something fun , informative and exciting to do!
