“Diego and Maria co-guide two groups with driver Juan. They work seamlessly together and we are so well taken care of. Diego explained the history well and Maria shows us the landscape and good places to take pictures. We were guided back in time where the knights and castles were. The landscape is beautiful. And the lunch across from the castle wall was delightful. All in all, it is a good tour. Just a reminder to dress appropriately because Segovia and Ávila is higher in altitude than Madrid..”

You’ll cross the Pyrenees, soak your feet in natural hot springs, shop duty-free, and collect an Andorran passport stamp. English-speaking guides such as Sergio, Rod, and Bertha have earned strong praise, but expect a long day with plenty of time in the vehicle.

“A must if you are coming to Barcelona. There’s very few other opportunities to explore 3 countries in one day and experience the Pyrenees. Transportation is seamless, and while there is a limited amount of time in each town, it was amazing to learn about the history, and we had time to buy souvenirs, try local cuisine, and take in the mountains and trees. Bring your wallet since we take a stop in Andorra which has designer goods and perfumes at a super discounted cost.
